The value of unknown resistance \((x)\) for which the potential difference between \(B\) and \(D\) will be zero in the arrangement shown, is _______.

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(6 \Omega\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In case of balanced Wheatstone Bridge
\(\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{AB}}}{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{AD}}}=\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{BC}}}{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{CD}}} \Rightarrow \frac{12}{6+\mathrm{x}}=\frac{0.5}{0.5}\)
\(\mathrm{x}=6 \Omega\)
