Q16.In a metre bridge experiment null point is obtained at 40 cm from one end of the wire when resistance X is balanced against another resistance Y . If X < Y , then the new position of the null point from the same end, if one decides to balance a resistance of 3X against Y , will be close to : (1) 80 cm (2) 75 cm (3) 67 cm (4) 50 cm

What This Question Tests

This question tests the understanding and application of the metre bridge principle, which is based on the Wheatstone bridge, requiring two calculations for the null point.
