Question 1 Report

In a meter bridge experiment, two resistor \(2\Omega\) and \(3\Omega\) occupy the left and right gaps respectively. Find the balance point from the left side of the bridge

Answer Details
Let the point be x

2 x  =  3 100 ? x

making x subject of formula,

2(100 - x) = 3x

200 - 2x = 3x

200 = 3x + 2x

200 = 5x

divide both side by 5

x = 40cm
