Current Electricity Ques 116
116. The resistance of the four arms P, Q, R and S in a Wheatstone’s bridge are $10 ohm, 30 ohm, 30$ ohm and $90 ohm$, respectively. The e.m.f. and internal resistance of the cell are 7 volt and 5 ohm respectively. If the galvanometer resistance is $50 ohm$, the current drawn from the cell will be

Answer:
Correct Answer: 116.(a)
Solution:
- (a) Given: $V=7 V$
$ \begin{alignedat} & R _{\text{eq }}=\frac{40 \times 120}{40+120} \Omega \\ & I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{7}{5+\frac{40 \times 120}{40+120}} \\ & =\frac{7}{35}=\frac{1}{5}=0.2 A . \end{aligned} $
