In a meter bridge experiment, the null point is at a distance of \(30~\text{cm}\) from \(A.\) If a resistance of \(16~\Omega\) is connected in parallel with resistance \(Y\), the null point occurs at \(50~\text{cm}\) from \(A.\) The value of the resistance \(Y\) is:

1. \(\dfrac{112}{3}~\Omega\) 2. \(\dfrac{40}{3}~\Omega\)
3. \(\dfrac{64}{3}~\Omega\) 4. \(\dfrac{48}{3}~\Omega\)

A resistance wire connected in the left gap of a meter bridge balances a \(10~\Omega\) resistance in the right gap at a point which divides the bridge wire in the ratio \(3:2\). lf the length of the resistance wire is \(1.5~\text{m}\), then the length of \(1~\Omega\) of the resistance wire will be:
1. \(1.0\times 10^{-1}~\text{m}\) 
2. \(1.5\times 10^{-1}~\text{m}\)
3. \(1.5\times 10^{-2}~\text{m}\)
4. \(1.0\times 10^{-2}~\text{m}\)

The metre bridge shown is in a balanced position with \(\frac{P}{Q} = \frac{l_1}{l_2}\). If we now interchange the position of the galvanometer and the cell, will the bridge work? If yes, what will be the balanced condition?

1. Yes, \(\frac{P}{Q}=\frac{l_1-l_2}{l_1+l_2}\) 2. No, no null point
3. Yes, \(\frac{P}{Q}= \frac{l_2}{l_1}\) 4. Yes, \(\frac{P}{Q}= \frac{l_1}{l_2}\)

The figure given below shows a circuit when resistances in the two arms of the meter bridge are \(5~\Omega\) and \(R\), respectively. When the resistance \(R\) is shunted with equal resistance, the new balance point is at \(1.6l_1\). The resistance \(R\) is:

1. \(10~\Omega\) 2. \(15~\Omega\)
3. \(20~\Omega\) 4. \(25~\Omega\)
