Consider the meter bridge circuit without neglecting and corrections (`alpha`, `beta`) If the unknown Resistance calculated without using the end corraction, is `R_(1)` and using the end corrections is `R_(2)` thenA. `R_(1)gtR_(2)` when balanced point is in first halfB. `R_(1) lt R_(2)` when balanced point is in first halfC. `R_(1)gtR_(2)` when balanced point is in second halfD. `R_(1)gtR_(2)` always

Answer» Correct Answer - A
If balance point is firsthalf say `l=40`
If balance point is second half say `l=70`
maximum permissible error in `p`: the specific resistivity of wire, from meter bridge is
`p=(piD^(2)S)/(4L)(l)/(100-l)`
Assume that know resistance in `RB(S)`, and total length of wire is presicely known, then lets find maximum permissible error in `p` due to error in `p` due to error in measurement of `l` (Balance length and `D`(diameter of wire).
In `p=In((piS)/(4L)+2InD+Inl-In(100-l))`
`(dp)/(p)=2(dD)/(D)+(dl)/(l)-(d(100-l))/((100-l))`
`=2(dD)/(D)+(dl)/(l)-(dl)/(100-l)`
`((dp)/(p))_(max)=2(DeltaD)/(D)+(Deltal)/(l)-(Deltal)/(100-l)`
`((dp)/(p))_(max)` due to error in `l` only is
`=(Deltal)/(l)+(Deltal)/(100-l)=(Deltal(100))/(l(100-l))`
`((dp)/(p))_(max)` will be least when `l(100-l)`
if max imum, i.e. `l=50cm`
