In a Wheatstone bridge,$P = 9 \, \Omega$,$Q = 11 \, \Omega$,$R = 4 \, \Omega$,and $S = 6 \, \Omega$. How much resistance $r$ must be connected in parallel to the resistance $S$ to balance the bridge?

  • A
    $24 \, \Omega$
  • B
    $\frac{44}{9} \, \Omega$
  • C
    $26.4 \, \Omega$
  • D
    $18.7 \, \Omega$

The Wheatstone bridge principle is used to measure the specific resistance $(S_1)$ of a given wire,having length $L$ and radius $r$. If $X$ is the resistance of the wire,then the specific resistance is: $S_1 = X \left( \frac{\pi r^2}{L} \right)$. If the length of the wire is doubled,then the value of the specific resistance will be:
