meter bridge

Question

Resistances in the two gaps of a meter bridge are l0 ohm and 30 ohm, respectively. If the resistances are interchanged the balance point shifts by

Easy

A

33.3 cm
B

66.67 cm
C

25 cm
D

50 cm

Solution

$\begin{array}{l} S = (\frac{100 - l}{l}) . R \\ Initially, 30 = (\frac{100 - l}{l}) \times 10 \Rightarrow l = 25 cm \\ Finally, 10 = (\frac{100 - l}{l}) \times 30 \Rightarrow l = 75 cm \end{array}$
So, shift = 50 cm.
