In a meter bridge, the gaps are enclosed by resistances of 2 and 3 . The value of shunt to be added to 3 resistor to shift the balancing point by 22.5 ~cm is
Options
- A1
- B2
- C2.5
- D5
Correct answer
B. 2
Step-by-step solution
(Initial part) x 100 -x= 2 3 x=40 ~cm If there is shifting by 22.5 ~cm . Then, to obtain the balance point in meter bridge aligned & 2(3+x) 3 x = 62.5 37.5 (6+2 x) 37.5=62.5 3 x & 225+75 x=187.5 x & 187.5 x-75 x=225 112.5 x=225 x=2 aligned
