Shown in the figure below is a meter-bridge set up with null deflection in the galvanometer. The value of the unknown resistor $R$ is ............. $\Omega$.

The resistance per centimeter of a meter bridge wire is $r$. $A$ resistance of $X \ \Omega$ is placed in the left gap and a resistance of $25 \ \Omega$ is placed in the right gap. The balancing length from the left end is $40 \ cm$. Now,the wire is replaced by another wire of $2r$ resistance per centimeter. The new balancing length for the same settings will be at: (in $cm$)

In a meter bridge,the null point is found at a distance of $25\, cm$ from $A$. If now a resistance of $10\,\Omega$ is connected in parallel with $S$,the null point occurs at the midpoint of $AB$. The value of $R$ is ................. $\Omega$. (in $.67$)

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 $\Omega$)

Two resistances are connected in two gaps of a meter bridge. The balance point is $20 \ cm$ from the zero end. $A$ resistance of $15 \ \Omega$ is connected in series with the smaller of the two. The null point shifts to $40 \ cm$. The value of the smaller resistance in $\Omega$ is
