Wheatstone Bridge & Metre Bridge

In a meter bridge experiment, for measuring unknown resistance 'S', the null point is obtained at a distance 30 cm30\text{ cm} from the left side as shown at point D. If R is 5.6 kΩ5.6\text{ k}\Omega, then the value of unknown resistance 'S' will be __________ Ω\Omega.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 2400

  1. SR=3070\dfrac{S}{R} = \dfrac{30}{70}.
  2. S=5600×37=2400 ΩS = 5600 \times \dfrac{3}{7} = 2400\ \Omega.
  3. S=2400 ΩS = 2400\ \Omega.
