In the circuit given, the correct relation to a balanced Wheatstone bridge is

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
In a balanced Wheatstone bridge, the relationship between the resistances is given by the equation:
\frac{P}{Q} = \frac{R}{S}
where P and Q are the resistances in one branch and R and S are the resistances in the other branch. Since the options provided are of ratios of different configurations, upon analysis, Option A simplifies to this condition of balance.
Therefore, the correct answer is Option A.
\frac{P}{Q} = \frac{R}{S}
where P and Q are the resistances in one branch and R and S are the resistances in the other branch. Since the options provided are of ratios of different configurations, upon analysis, Option A simplifies to this condition of balance.
Therefore, the correct answer is Option A.
