If the Wheatstone bridge with four resistors $R_1, R_2, R_3$ and $R_4$ is balanced,then the correct expression is

  • A
    $\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{R_4}{R_3}$
  • B
    $\frac{R_2}{R_3}=\frac{R_1}{R_4}$
  • C
    $R_1 R_2=R_3 R_4$
  • D
    $R_1+R_2=R_3+R_4$

The current in the given circuit is ................ $A$.

$A$ Wheatstone's bridge is balanced with a resistance of $625\, \Omega$ in the third arm,where $P, Q$ and $S$ are in the $1^{st}, 2^{nd}$ and $4^{th}$ arm respectively. If $P$ and $Q$ are interchanged,the resistance in the third arm has to be increased by $51\,\Omega$ to secure balance. The unknown resistance in the fourth arm is ............. $\Omega$.
