$A$ 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:

  • A
    $1\,cm, 2\,cm$
  • B
    $2\,cm, 3\,cm$
  • C
    $3\,cm, 4\,cm$
  • D
    $3\,cm, 2\,cm$

In a meter bridge experiment,the null point is obtained at $20 \ cm$ from one end of the wire when resistance $X$ is balanced against resistance $Y$. If $X < Y$,then the distance of the new null point from the same end when a resistance of $4X$ is balanced against $Y$ will be ............ $cm$.

Resistances are connected in a meter bridge circuit as shown in the figure. The balancing length $l_{1}$ is $40\,cm$. Now an unknown resistance $x$ is connected in series with $P$ and the new balancing length is found to be $80\,cm$ measured from the same end. Then the value of $x$ will be $.......\Omega$.

In a meter bridge experiment,the ratio of the left gap resistance to the right gap resistance is $2:3$. The balance length from the left end is (in $\,cm$)

In an experiment to determine the temperature coefficient of resistance of a conductor,a coil of wire $X$ is immersed in a liquid. It is heated by an external agent. $A$ meter bridge setup is used to determine the resistance of the coil $X$ at different temperatures. The balancing points measured at temperatures $t_1=0^{\circ} C$ and $t_2=100^{\circ} C$ are $50 \ cm$ and $60 \ cm$ respectively. If the standard resistance taken out is $S=4 \ \Omega$ in both trials,the temperature coefficient of the coil is
