Four resistors \(A, B, C\) and \(D\) form a Wheatstone bridge as shown in the figure. The bridge is balanced when \(C=100 \Omega\). If \(A\) and \(B\) are interchanged, the bridge balances for \(C=121 \Omega\). The value of \(D\) is

  1. A \(10 \Omega\)
  2. B \(100 \Omega\)
  3. C \(110 \Omega\)
  4. D \(120 \Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(110 \Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to the question, balanced wheat stone bridge, can be shows as follows First case when, \(C=100 \Omega\) Now, By balanced wheat stone bridge, \(\frac{R_A}{R_B}=\frac{100}{R}\) ...(i) Second case when, \(C=121 \Omega\) \( \frac{R_B}{R_A}=\frac{121}{R} \) From Eqs. (i)…
