Figure`6.52` shows a balanced wheatstone net. Now, it is disturbed by changing `P` to `11 Omega`. Which of the following steps will not bring the bridge to balance again?

A

increasing `R` by `2 Omega`

B

increasing `S` by `20 Omega`

C

increasing `Q `by `10 Omega`

D

making product `RQ = 2200 (Omega)^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`P//Q = R//S`. If `P` is increased, then either `R` or `Q` should be increased or `S` should be decreased.
