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 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 . . . . . . $\Omega$.

$A$ meter bridge is set up as shown,to determine an unknown resistance '$X$' using a standard $10 \ \Omega$ resistor. The galvanometer shows a null point when the tapping key is at the $52 \ cm$ mark. The end corrections are $1 \ cm$ and $2 \ cm$ respectively for the ends $A$ and $B$. The determined value of '$X$' is (in $\Omega$)

In a meter bridge experiment,resistances are connected as shown in the figure. The balancing length $l_1$ is $55 \, cm$. Now,an unknown resistance $x$ is connected in series with $P$ and the new balancing length is found to be $75 \, cm$. The value of $x$ is

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

$(a)$ In a meter bridge,the balance point is found to be at $39.5\; cm$ from the end $A$,when the resistor $Y$ is of $12.5\; \Omega$. Determine the resistance of $X$. Why are the connections between resistors in a Wheatstone or meter bridge made of thick copper strips?
$(b)$ Determine the balance point of the bridge above if $X$ and $Y$ are interchanged.
$(c)$ What happens if the galvanometer and cell are interchanged at the balance point of the bridge? Would the galvanometer show any current?
