$A$ resistance of $20 \Omega$ is connected in the left gap of a metre bridge and an unknown resistance greater than $20 \Omega$ is connected in the right gap. When these resistances are interchanged,the balance point shifts by $20 \text{ cm}$. The unknown resistance is (in $\Omega$)

In a meter-bridge experiment,a resistance of $18 \Omega$ is connected in the left gap and an unknown resistance $R$ is connected in the right gap. The null point is obtained at $\ell_{1}$ from the left end. If the unknown resistance is replaced by $(\frac{R}{3}) \Omega$,the null point is obtained at $1.5 \ell_{1}$. The unknown resistance $R$ is: (in $\Omega$)

In a meter bridge experiment,a null point is obtained at $40 \ cm$ from one end of the wire when resistance $X$ is balanced against another resistance $Y$. If $X < Y$,then the new position of the null point from the same end,if one decides to balance a resistance of $3X$ against $Y$,will be close to .............. $cm$.

The resistances in the two arms of the meter bridge are $5 \,\Omega$ and $R \,\Omega$ respectively. When the resistance $R$ is shunted with an equal resistance,the new balance point is at $1.6\,l_1$. The resistance $R$ is .................. $\Omega$.

In a meter bridge experiment,a null point is obtained at $20 \ cm$ from one end of the wire when resistance $X$ is balanced against another resistance $Y$. If $X < Y$,then where will be the new position of the null point from the same end,if one decides to balance a resistance of $4X$ against $Y$ (in $cm$)?
