Current Electricity
Exercise 3
Chapter-3 Exercise 3.10
(a) In a metre bridge [Fig. 3.27], the balance point is found to be at 39.5 cm from the end A, when the resistor Y is of 12.5 Ω. Determine the resistance of X. Why are the connections between resistors in a Wheatstone or meter bridge made of thick copper strips? (b) Determine the balance point of the bridge above if X and Y are interchanged. (c) What happens if the galvanometer and cell are interchanged at the balance point of the bridge? Would the galvanometer show any current?
