In a meter bridge two gaps in the metallic strip are connected by \(3 \Omega\) and \(9 \Omega\) resistors. What should be the value of shunt that needs to be added to \(9 \Omega\) resistor to shift balancing point by \(25 \mathrm{~cm}\) ?

  1. A \(3.0 \Omega\)
  2. B \(3.5 \Omega\)
  3. C \(4.5 \Omega\)
  4. D \(5.0 \Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(4.5 \Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given situation is shown below. Suppose bridge is balanced at a distance \(l\) from one end. Initially in balance condition, When a shunt \(S^{\prime} \Omega\) is connected to \(9 \Omega\) resistor balance point shifts by \(25 \mathrm{~cm}\). So, new balance length…
