A coil of copper wire is put in the left gap and some resitance in the right gap of a simple meter bridge. The coil is immesed in a water bath. When the temperature of the bath is 0^(@) C, the null point occurs at 50.0cm. When the water in the bath is boiled, the null point shift to 52cm. Calcualte the temperature coefficient of resistance of copper.

In a meter-bridge experiment with a resistance R_(1) in left gap and a resistance X in a right gap. null point is obtained at 40 cm from the left emf.
