In a metre bridge experiment (see figure), the positions of the cell, $E$, and galvanometer, $G$, are interchanged. We shall observe in the galvanometer:

  • A
    Only the right-sided deflection
  • B
    Only the left-sided deflection
  • C
    There will be no deflection irrespective of the position of the jockey
  • D
    Both right-sided and left-sided deflection and at balance point, no deflection

Assertion $(A):$ In a meter bridge experiment,the unknown resistance is placed inside an enclosure maintained at a higher temperature. The null point can be obtained at the same position as before by decreasing the value of the standard resistance.
Reason $(R):$ The resistance of a metal increases with an increase in temperature.

$A$ resistance of $2 \Omega$ is connected across one gap of a metre-bridge (the length of the wire is $100 \text{ cm}$) and an unknown resistance,greater than $2 \Omega$,is connected across the other gap. When these resistances are interchanged,the balance point shifts by $20 \text{ cm}$. Neglecting any corrections,the unknown resistance is (in $\Omega$)

In a metre bridge experiment, the resistance in the left gap is $20 \text{ } \Omega$ and in the right gap is $60 \text{ } \Omega$. The bridge is balanced. The distance of the null point from the centre of the wire is (in $\text{ cm}$)

In a meter bridge experiment,the ratio of the left gap resistance to the right gap resistance is $2:3$. The balance length from the left end is (in $\,cm$)

In the given figure of a meter bridge experiment,the balancing length $AC$ corresponding to null deflection of the galvanometer is $40 \, cm$. What will be the balancing length if the radius of the wire $AB$ is doubled (in $, cm$)?
