In a meter bridge experiment for measuring an unknown resistance '$S$',the null point is obtained at a distance of $30 \ cm$ from the left side,as shown at point $D$. If $R$ is $5.6 \ k\Omega$,then the value of the unknown resistance '$S$' will be $\Omega$.

In the gaps of a meter bridge,two unknown resistances $A$ and $B$ are connected. $A$ null point is obtained when the wire is divided in the ratio $3:4$. When each resistance is increased by $40 \Omega$,the null point divides the wire in the ratio $7:8$. The values of resistances $A$ and $B$ are respectively:

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 ............ $cm$.

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 $:$)?

$A$ wire of length $10 \ cm$ and radius $\sqrt{7} \times 10^{-4} \ m$ is connected across the right gap of a meter bridge. When a resistance of $4.5 \ \Omega$ is connected in the left gap using a resistance box,the balance length is found to be at $60 \ cm$ from the left end. If the resistivity of the wire is $R \times 10^{-7} \ \Omega \ m$,then the value of $R$ is:
