The resistance in the two arms of the meter bridge are `5 Omega` and `R Omega`, respectively. When the resistance `R` is shunted with an equal resistance, the new balance point is `1.6 l_(1)`.
The resistance `R` is

A

`10Omega`

B

`15Omega`

C

`20Omega`

D

`25Omega`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`(5)/(R )=(l_(1))/(100-l_(1)) and (5)/(R//2)=(1.6l_(1))/(100-1.6l_(1))`
`rArr R=15Omega, l_(1)=25 cm^(2)`
