In the meter bridge experiment, the length $AB$ of the wire is $1 \, m$. The resistors $X$ and $Y$ have values $5 \, \Omega$ and $2 \, \Omega$ respectively. When a shunt resistance $S$ is connected in parallel to $X$, the balancing point is found to be $0.625 \, m$ from $A$. Then, the resistance of the shunt $S$ is

The resistance of the meter bridge wire $AB$ in the given figure is $4\,\Omega$. With a cell of emf $\varepsilon_1 = 0.5\,\text{V}$ and rheostat resistance $R_{h1} = 2\,\Omega$,the null point is obtained at point $J$. When the cell is replaced by another one of emf $\varepsilon_2$,the same null point $J$ is found for $R_{h2} = 6\,\Omega$. The emf $\varepsilon_2$ is ................. $\text{V}$.

The figure shows a meter-bridge circuit,with $AB = 100\, cm$,$X = 12\,\Omega$ and $R = 18\,\Omega$,and the jockey $J$ in the position of balance. If $R$ is now made $8\,\Omega$,through what distance will $J$ have to be moved to obtain balance? .............. $cm$

In a meter bridge experiment,the ratio of the left gap resistance to the right gap resistance is $2:3$. The balance length from the left end is (in $\,cm$)

In a meter bridge experiment,a null point is obtained at $20 \ cm$ from one end of the wire when resistance $X$ is balanced against another resistance $Y$. If $X < Y$,then where will be the new position of the null point from the same end,if one decides to balance a resistance of $4X$ against $Y$ (in $cm$)?
