In a meter bridge experiment,$S$ is a standard resistance and $R$ is a resistance wire. It is found that the balancing length is $l = 25 \; cm$. If $R$ is replaced by a wire of half the length and half the diameter of $R$ but of the same material,then the new balancing length $l^{\prime}$ (in $cm$) will be:

  • A
    $36$
  • B
    $37$
  • C
    $33$
  • D
    $40$

When the two known resistances $R$ and $S$ are connected in the left and right gaps of a meter bridge respectively,the null point is found at a distance $l_1$ from the zero end of the meter bridge wire. An unknown resistance $X$ is now connected in parallel with $S$,and the null point is found at a distance $l_2$ from the zero end of the meter bridge wire. The unknown resistance $X$ is:
