The figure shows a rough sketch of a meter bridge. The galvanometer $(G)$ shows zero deflection at a length $l \, cm$. Now,$R_1$ and $R_2$ are interchanged,and the balancing length increases by $25 \, cm$. Find the ratio $R_1/R_2$.

  • A
    $\frac{3}{5}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{5}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{2}$

In an experiment of a meter bridge, a null point is obtained at the centre of the bridge wire. When a resistance of $10\, \Omega$ is connected in one gap, the value of resistance in the other gap is ............. $\Omega$.

When a wire is connected in the left gap of a metre bridge,the balancing point is at $40 \ cm$ from the left end of the bridge wire. If the wire in the left gap is stretched so that its length is doubled and again connected in the same gap,then the balancing point from the left end of the bridge wire is
