On interchanging the resistances,the balance point of a meter bridge shifts to the left by $10 \, cm$. The resistance of their series combination is $1 \, k\Omega$. How much was the resistance on the left slot before interchanging the resistances? ................... $\Omega$

If the null point of a meter bridge is obtained at $50 \ cm$,what will be the value of the unknown resistor $X$ if the known resistor $R$ is $10 \ \Omega$ (in $Omega$)?

$STATEMENT-1$: In a Meter Bridge experiment,a null point for an unknown resistance is measured. Now,the unknown resistance is placed inside an enclosure maintained at a higher temperature. The null point can be obtained at the same point as before by decreasing the value of the standard resistance.
$STATEMENT-2$: The resistance of a metal increases with an increase in temperature.

If the balance point is obtained at the $35^{th} cm$ in a meter bridge,the resistances in the left and right gaps are in the ratio of:

In the meter bridge experiment,the length $AB$ of the wire is $1 \ m$. The resistors $X$ and $Y$ have values $5 \ \Omega$ and $2 \ \Omega$ respectively. When a shunt resistance $S$ is connected in parallel to $X$,the balancing point is found to be $0.625 \ m$ from $A$. Then,the resistance of the shunt $S$ is (in $Omega$)
