  • A
    $25 \ cm$ towards right
  • B
    $50 \ cm$ towards right
  • C
    $25 \ cm$ towards left
  • D

In a metre-bridge experiment,the balance point is obtained when the gaps are closed by $2 \Omega$ and $3 \Omega$ resistors. $A$ shunt of $x \Omega$ is added in parallel to the $3 \Omega$ resistor to shift the balance point by $22.5 \ cm$. The value of $x$ is: (in $\Omega$)

In a meter bridge circuit, which part is called the battery arm and which part is called the galvanometer arm?

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 $:$)?

$A$ 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 $\Omega$)
