 In a metre bridge experiment (see figure), the positions of the cell, \(E,\) and galvanometer, \(G,\) are interchanged. We shall observe in the galvanometer:
           
1. Only the right-sided deflection.
2. Only the left-sided deflection.
3. There will be no deflection irrespective of the position of the jockey.
4. Both right-sided and left-sided deflection and, at balance point, no deflection.

1. \(0.75~\text{m}\)
2. \(1~\text{m}~\)
3. \(1.5~\text{m}\)
4. \(2~\text{m}\)
