Given a Wheatstone-bridge with external voltage V, Resistance Bridge with resistances P, Q, R, S, and galvanometer G. What is the balancing condition of bridge?
P⁄Q=S⁄R
P⁄S=R⁄Q
P = R⁄Q
S = R⁄Q
Explanation:
A Wheatstone bridge is said to be balanced when galvanometer shows null deflection that is zero current flow through that path.
