In a metre bridge experiment, the resistance in the left gap is $15 \text{ } \Omega$ and in the right gap is $45 \text{ } \Omega$. The bridge is balanced. The distance of the null point from the centre of the wire is (in $\text{ cm}$)

In a meter bridge experiment, two resistances $X$ and $Y$ in the two gaps give a null point dividing the wire in the ratio $2 : 3$. When each resistance is increased by $30 \text{ } \Omega$, the null point divides the wire in the ratio $5 : 6$. The resistances $X$ and $Y$ are respectively:

$A$ meter bridge is set up as shown to determine the end corrections at $A$ and $B$. When a resistance of $15\,\Omega$ is used in the left gap and $20\,\Omega$ in the right gap,the null point is obtained at a distance of $42\,cm$ from $A$. When these resistances are interchanged,the null point is obtained at a distance of $57\,cm$ from $A$. The values of the end corrections are:

In a meter bridge experiment,when resistance $X$ is in the left gap and $Y$ is in the right gap,the null point is found at $20 \ cm$ from the left end. If $X < Y$,what will be the new position of the null point from the same end if a resistance of $4X$ is placed in the left gap instead of $X$?

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

Two wires $A$ and $B$ of equal lengths are connected in the left and right gaps of a metre bridge. The null point is obtained at $40 \ cm$ from the left end. If the diameters of the wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio $3:1$,what is the ratio of the specific resistance (resistivity) of $A$ to that of $B$ (in $:$)?
