The resistance per centimeter of a meter bridge wire is \(\mathrm{r}\), with \(\mathrm{X}\ \Omega\) resistance in left gap. Balancing length from left end is at \(40 \mathrm{~cm}\) with \(25\ \Omega\) resistance in right gap. Now the wire is replaced by another wire of \(2 \mathrm{r}\) resistance per centimeter. The new balancing length for same settings will be at _______.
- A \(20 \mathrm{~cm}\)
- B \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\)
- C \(80 \mathrm{~cm}\)
- D \(40 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(40 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\frac{25}{\mathrm{r} \ell_1}=\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{r} \ell_2}\) \(.....(i)\) \(\frac{25}{2 \mathrm{r} \ell_1^{\prime}}=\frac{\mathrm{X}}{2 \mathrm{r} \ell_2^{\prime}}\) \(...(ii)\) From \((i)\) and \((ii)\) \(\ell_2^{\prime}=\ell_2=40 \mathrm{~cm}\)
