Figure (a) below shows a Wheatstone bridge in which P, Q R, S are fixed resistances, \(G\) is a galvanometer, and \(B\) is a battery. For this particular case, the galvanometer shows zero deflection. Now, only the positions of \(B\) and \(G\) are interchanged. as shown in figure (b). The new deflection of the galvanometer:

          

1. is to the left
2. is to the right
3. is zero
4. depends on the values of P, Q, R, S

The circuit shown contains three identical resistors, two ammeters X and Y, and a voltmeter Z. The internal resistance of the battery is negligible.
        
Which option shows the readings on the three meters?
(Assume the ammeters have negligible resistance, and negligible current flows through the voltmeter.)

1. X = \(1.0\) A; Y = \(0.0\) A; Z = \(12\) V
2. X = \(2.0\) A; Y = \(0.0\) A; Z = \(4.0\) V
3. X = \(1.0\) A; Y = \(2.0\) A; Z = \(8.0\) V
4. X = \(3.0\) A; Y = \(6.0\) A; Z = \(12\) V

A student has three \(6.0~\Omega\) resistors that can be connected together in any configuration. What are the maximum and minimum resistance that can be obtained by using one or more of these three resistors?
(Assume the connections between the resistors have negligible resistance, the temperature of the resistors is constant, and the resistors are used in a d.c. circuit and none of the resistors are short­circuited.)

1. maximum resistance: \(12~\Omega\); minimum resistance: \(0.50~\Omega\)
2. maximum resistance: \(6.0~\Omega\); minimum resistance: \(0.50~\Omega\)
3. maximum resistance: \(18~\Omega\); minimum resistance: \(6.0~\Omega\)
4. maximum resistance: \(18~\Omega\); minimum resistance: \(2.0~\Omega\)
