A resistance wire connected in the left gap of a meter bridge balances a
resistance in the right gap at a point which divides the bridge wire in the ratio
. If the length of the resistance wire is 1.5 m , then the length of
of the resistance wire is [NEET 2020]
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
According to the question, the meter bridge is shown below

Given ,
At balance condition in meter bridge ,

Now, length of given wire whose resistance
is 1.5 m .
Therefore, length of
resistance wire is
