In the circuit `P != R, ` the reading of the galvanometer is same with switch S open or closed. Then

A

`I_(R)=I_(G)`

B

`I_(P)=I_(G)`

C

`I_(Q)=I_(G)`

D

`I_(Q)=I_(R)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
This method is kelvin's method of determining resistance of galvanometer by Wheatstone bridge circuit. Deflection in galvanometer G is same with switch S open or closed. It means that there is no current through S. This happens when the potentials at the two ends of S are same. This is the condition of balanced Wheatstone bridge.
`therefore I_(p)=I_(Q)and I_(R) =I_(G)`
