In an experiment with Meter Bridge, with unknown resistance R in the left gap, the null point is obtained at \( l_1 = 40 \text{ cm} \) from the left end. Now a resistance of \( R' = 10 \Omega \) is connected in series with resistance R, the null point is obtained at \( l_2 = 70 \text{ cm} \) from the left end. The value of resistance R is

  1. A \( 4 \Omega \)
  2. B \( 6 \Omega \)
  3. C \( 5\Omega \)
  4. D \( 3 \Omega \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \( 4 \Omega \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{R}{S} = \frac{40}{100-40} = \frac{40}{60} = \frac{2}{3} \) \( \frac{R+10}{S} = \frac{70}{100-70} = \frac{70}{30} = \frac{7}{3} \) \( \frac{(R+10)/S}{R/S} = \frac{7/3}{2/3} \) \( \frac{R+10}{R} = \frac{7}{2} \) \( 2(R+10) = 7R \) \( 2R + 20 = 7R \) \( 5R = 20 \)…
