In order to measure the internal resistance $r_1$ of a cell of emf $E$,a meter bridge of wire resistance $R_0=50 \Omega$,a resistance $R_0/2$,another cell of emf $E/2$ (internal resistance $r$) and a galvanometer $G$ are used in a circuit,as shown in the figure. If the null point is found at $l=72 \text{ cm}$,then the value of $r_1$ is . . . . $\Omega$.

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

In a meter bridge,two gaps in the metallic strip are connected by $3 \Omega$ and $9 \Omega$ resistors. What should be the value of the shunt that needs to be added in parallel to the $9 \Omega$ resistor to shift the balancing point by $25 \text{ cm}$ (in $\Omega$)?

In a meter bridge experiment to determine the value of an unknown resistance, first the resistances $2 \Omega$ and $3 \Omega$ are connected in the left and right gaps of the bridge and the null point is obtained at a distance $l \ cm$ from the left. Now when an unknown resistance $x \ \Omega$ is connected in parallel to $3 \ \Omega$ resistance, the null point is shifted by $10 \ cm$ to the right of the wire. The value of unknown resistance $x$ is . . . . . . $\Omega$.

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.
