To solve the problem, we will use the principle of a meter bridge, which is based on the Wheatstone bridge concept. The balance point in a meter bridge is determined by the ratio of the resistances on either side of the bridge. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values:** - Balance point when Y = 12.5Ω is at L1 = 39.5 cm from end A. - Resistance X = 19.14Ω. ...
