NEET 2024 · PhysicsWheatstone bridgePrevious Year Question

Choose the correct circuit which can achieve the bridge balance. (Arms 100 , 10 , 15 , 5 with galvanometer G and cell E + key K.)

Answer: (D) clean diamond: G on one diagonal, cell+key on the other. \textbf{Answer:} (4) \textbf{Solution:} For balance the galvanometer must sit on one diagonal and the cell+key on the other, with the four arms (100, 10, 15, 5 ) on the four sides.

  1. A.diamond, G & cell mis-paired on same side
  2. B.distorted (offset sub-diamond holds G & 5 )
  3. C.diamond, G/cell diagonals mis-paired
  4. D.clean diamond: G on one diagonal, cell+key on the other

Correct Answer

(D) clean diamond: G on one diagonal, cell+key on the other

Solution & Explanation

\textbf{Answer:} (4) \textbf{Solution:} For balance the galvanometer must sit on one diagonal and the cell+key on the other, with the four arms (100, 10, 15, 5 ) on the four sides. Only option (4) has this proper diamond with G and the battery on opposite diagonals, so a null (balance) can be achieved.

PhysIf the galvanometer G does not show any deflection in the circuit shown, the value of R is given by:PhysA Wheatstone bridge is used to determine an unknown resistance X by adjusting the variable resistance Y. For the most precise measurement of X, the resistances P and Q:PhysAn electric dipole with dipole moment 5 × 10⁻⁶ C·m is aligned with the direction of a uniform electric field of magnitude 4 × 10⁵ N/C. The dipole is then rotated through an angle of 60° with respect to the electric field. The change in the potential energy of the dipole is:PhysTwo identical charged conducting spheres A and B have their centres separated by a certain distance. Charge on each sphere is q and the force of repulsion between them is F. A third identical uncharged conducting sphere is brought in contact with sphere A first and then with B and finally removed from both. New force of repulsion between spheres A and B (radii negligible vs separation, treated as point charges) is best given as:PhysThe plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by d. Two slabs of different dielectric constant K1 and K2 with thickness 3d/8 and d/2 respectively are inserted in the capacitor. Due to this, the capacitance becomes two times larger than when there is nothing between the plates. If K1/K2 = 1.25, the value of K1 is:PhysA sphere of radius R is carved out of a uniform solid sphere of radius 2R (internally tangent, so its centre is at distance R from the big centre). The ratio of the moment of inertia of the small sphere to that of the remaining part, both about the Y-axis through the big sphere's centre, is:PhysThe Sun rotates once in 27 days. If it expanded to twice its present radius (uniform-density sphere, no external influence), its new period would be about:PhysA uniform rod of mass 20 kg and length 5 m leans against a smooth vertical wall, making 60° with the wall; its lower end rests on a rough horizontal floor. The friction force exerted by the floor is: (g = 10 m/s²)
