In a meter Bridge experiment resistance x is connected in the right gap. When R1 and R2 are connected in the left gap separately the balance points are 40 cm and 50 cm respectively from the left end. Now if both R1 & R2 are connected in series in the left gap with x in the right gap then what will be the new balance point from the left end (in cm)?

The correct answer is: 62.5
R1x= 4060 = 23....1, R2x= 5050 = 1 ..... 2

R1+R2x= l100l .... (3) Add eq (1) & (2)

R1+R2x=23 + 1 = 53 ... (4) Placing eq (4) in (3)

5/3 =l100l 5005l = 3l

 8l=500l= 62.5 cm
