Two resistances are connected in the two gaps of a meter bridge. The balancing point is obtained at $20 \ cm$. When a resistance of $15 \ \Omega$ is connected in series with the smaller resistance of the two,the balancing point shifts to $40 \ cm$. The value of the smaller resistance is (in $\Omega$)

$A$ resistance of $20 \Omega$ is connected in the left gap of a metre bridge and an unknown resistance greater than $20 \Omega$ is connected in the right gap. When these resistances are interchanged,the balance point shifts by $20 \text{ cm}$. The unknown resistance is (in $\Omega$)

When the two known resistances $R$ and $S$ are connected in the left and right gaps of a meter bridge respectively,the null point is found at a distance $l_1$ from the zero end of the meter bridge wire. An unknown resistance $X$ is now connected in parallel with $S$,and the null point is found at a distance $l_2$ from the zero end of the meter bridge wire. The unknown resistance $X$ is:

In a meter bridge experiment,resistances are connected as shown in the figure. Initially,resistance $P = 4\,\Omega$ and the null point $N$ is at $60\,cm$ from $A$. Now,an unknown resistance $R$ is connected in series to $P$,and the new position of the null point is at $80\,cm$ from $A$. The value of unknown resistance $R$ is

The resistances in the two gaps of a balanced meter bridge are $X \ \Omega$ and $3X \ \Omega$ respectively. If the resistances are interchanged, the balance point shifts by: (in $\text{ cm}$)
