An unknown resistance X is to be determined using resistances `R_1, R_2 or R_3`. Their corresponding null points are A, B and C. Find which of the above will give the most accurate reading and why?
. `R= R_1 or R_2 or R_3`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
This is true for `r_(1)=r_(2)`; So `R_(2)` given most accurate value
