An unknown resistance R1 is connected in series with a resistance of 10 Ω. This combination is connected to one gap of a metre bridge while a resistance R2 is connected in the other gap. The balance point is at 50 cm. Now, when the 10 Ω resistance is removed the balance point shifts to 40 cm. The value of R1 is (in ohms):
  1. 20
  2. 10
  3. 60
  4. 40

Answer

(B) 10
