Find the value of R in fig. so that there is no current in the 15 `Omega` resistor

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

This is the Wheatstone bridge with the galvanometer replaced by `15 Omega` resistor. The bridge is balanced because there is no current is 15 `Omega` resistor, hence,
`20//10 = 40//R`
`therefore R= (40 xx 10 Omega)/(20) = 20 Omega`
