In a meter bridge experiment,$S$ is a standard resistance and $R$ is a resistance wire. It is found that the balancing length is $l = 25 \; cm$. If $R$ is replaced by a wire of half the length and half the diameter of $R$ but of the same material,then the new balancing length $l^{\prime}$ (in $cm$) will be:

  • A
    $36$
  • B
    $37$
  • C
    $33$
  • D
    $40$
