In the meter bridge experiment,for given values of $R_1$ and $R_2$,the balance point is $20 \ cm$ from point $A$. When $R_2$ is shunted by a $20 \ \Omega$ resistance,the balancing point shifts to $50 \ cm$ from point $A$. Find the value of $R_2$ in $\Omega$.

  • A
    $20$
  • B
    $15$
  • C
    $60$
  • D
    $80$

In a meter bridge experiment,the null point is obtained at $20 \ cm$ from one end of the wire when resistance $X$ is balanced against resistance $Y$. If $X < Y$,then the distance of the new null point from the same end when a resistance of $4X$ is balanced against $Y$ will be ............ $cm$.

In the meter bridge experiment,the length $AB$ of the wire is $1 \ m$. The resistors $X$ and $Y$ have values $5 \ \Omega$ and $2 \ \Omega$ respectively. When a shunt resistance $S$ is connected in parallel to $X$,the balancing point is found to be $0.625 \ m$ from $A$. Then,the resistance of the shunt $S$ is (in $\Omega$)
