Two resistances prepared from the wire of the same material having diameters in the ratio 3:1 and length in the ratio 3:1 are connected in the left and right gap of Wheatstone's metre bridge.The distance of null point from the left end of the wire is

A

55 cm

B

25 cm

C

35 cm

D

52 cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`(R_(1))/(R_(2))=(l_(x))/(l_(r))`
`:.(l_(1))/(l_(2))xx(pi r_(2)^(2))/(pi r_(1)^(2))=(l_(x))/(100-l_(x))`
`:.l_(x)=25cm`
