In a meter bridge experiment (see figure), the positions of the cell, E, and galvanometer, G, are interchanged. We shall observe in the galvanometer:

Only the right-sided deflection

Only the left-sided deflection

There will be no deflection irrespective of the position of the jockey

Both right-sided and left-sided deflection and at balance point, no deflection

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In the given circuit, it is not mentioned whether the meter bridge is balanced or not,
So on interchanging the positions of battery and galvanometer, deflection may or may not be zero.
In case of unbalanced condition, deflection may be left or right sided in galvanometer.
