Q17.In a meter bridge, as shown in the figure, it is given that resistance Y = 12.5Ω and that the balance is obtained at a distance 39.5 cm from end A (by jockey J). After interchanging the resistances X and Y , a new balance point is found at a distance l2 from end A . What are the values of X and l2 ? (1) 19.15Ω and 39.5 cm (2) 8.16Ω and 60.5 cm (3) 19.15Ω and 60.5 cm (4) 8.16Ω and 39.5 cm
