Statement \(1 \mathrm{In}\) a Meter Bridge experiment, null point for an unknown resistance is measured. Now, the unknown resistance is put 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.
and Statement 2 Resistance of a metal increase with increase in temperature.
- A Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1.
- B Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is not a correct explanation for Statement 1.
- C Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
- D Statement 1 is false, Statement 2 is true
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Statement 1 is false, Statement 2 is true
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
With increase in temperature, the value of unknown resistance will increase.
In balanced Wheatstone bridge condition, \(\frac{R}{X}=\frac{l_1}{l_2}\)
Here, \(R=\) value of standard resistance,
\(X=\) value of unknown resistance .
To take null point at same point or \(\frac{l_1}{l_2}\) to remain unchanged, \(\frac{R}{X}\) should also remain unchanged. Therefore, if \(X\) is increasing \(R\) should also increase.
\(\therefore\) correct option is (d).

JEE Advanced 2014 Hard - Paragraph:
When a particle is restricted to move along \(x\)-axis between \(x=0\) and \(x=a\), where \(a\) is of nanometer dimension, its energy can take only certain specific values. The allowed energies of the particle moving in such a restricted region, correspond to the formation of standing waves with nodes at its ends \(x=0\) and \(x=a\). The wavelength of this standing wave is related to the liner momentum \(p\) of the particle according to the de Broglie relation. The energy of the particle of mass \(m\) is related to its linear momentum as \(E=\frac{p^2}{2 m}\). Thus, the energy of the particle can be denoted by a quantum number \(n\) taking values \(1,2,3, \ldots(n=1\), called the ground state) corresponding to the number of loops in the standing wave.
Use the model described above to answer the following three questions for a particle moving in the line \(x=0\) to \(x=a\) [Take \(h=6.6 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{Js}\) and \(e=1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}\) ]
