What is Wheat Stone Bridge?<\/strong>
\nA Wheatstone bridge is an electrical circuit used to measure an unknown electrical resistance by balancing two legs of a bridge circuit, one leg of which includes the unknown component. it was invented by Samuel Hunter Christie in 1833 and improved and popularized by Sir Charles Wheatstone in 1843.Although today digital multimeters provide the simplest way to measure a resistance, The Wheatstone Bridge can still be used to measure very low values of resistances down in the milli-Ohms range.<\/p>\n

Principal For Wheat Stone Bridge<\/strong>
\nThe general arrangement of Wheatstone bridge circuit is shown in the figure below. It is a four arms bridge circuit where arm AB, BC, CD and AD are consisting of electrical resistances P, Q, S and R respectively. Among these resistances P and Q are known fixed electrical resistances and these two arms are referred as ratio arms. An Galvanometer is connected between the terminals B and D through a switch K2. The voltage source of this Wheatstone bridge is connected to the terminals A and C via a switch K1 as shown. A variable resistor S is connected between point C and D. The potential at point D can be varied by adjusting the value of variable resistor. If we vary the electrical resistance value of arm CD the value of current I2 will also be varied as the voltage across A and C is fixed. If we continue to adjust the variable resistance one situation may comes when voltage drop across the resistor S that is I2.S is becomes exactly equal to voltage drop across resistor Q that is I1.Q. Thus the potential at point B becomes equal to the potential at point D hence potential difference between these two points is zero hence current through galvanometer is nil. Then the deflection in the galvanometer is nil when the switch K2 is closed.<\/p>\n

Applying Kirchoff’Law we can easily find that in that condition<\/p>\n

Meter\u00a0 Bridge Experiment using Wheatstone Bridge Principle<\/strong><\/p>\n

Meter bridge is based on the principle of wheat stone bridge and it is used to find the resistance of an unknown conductor or to compare two unknown resistance. The practical diagram is shown in the below figure<\/p>\n

\"eem_fig12\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Calculation<\/strong>
\nR is Known Resistance<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

S is Unknown Resistance<\/em>
\n P is Resistance across AB<\/em>
\n Q is the Resistance between BD<\/em>
\n AC is a 1m long wire made of maganin or constanan having uniform area of cross-section So that L1<\/sub>+L2<\/sub>=100<\/em>
\n Assuming L1<\/sub>=L => L2<\/sub>=100-L<\/em><\/p>\n

The unknown resistance ‘X’ of the given wire is obtained by relation :<\/em>
\n X = RL2<\/sub>\/L1<\/sub>= R(100-L)\/L<\/em><\/p>\n

And specific resistance of the material of a given a wire is o<\/em>btained by =(3.14) r2<\/sup>X\/l<\/em>
\n where r = radius of the wire and l = length of wire.<\/em><\/p>\n

Task of the Experiment<\/strong><\/p>\n

To find out the Unknown Resistance and radius of the wire using meterbridge. We need to take 5 reading and average out that for the calculation<\/p>\n

Instruments required for the experiment<\/strong>
\n1) Meter bridge
\n2) Galvanometer
\n3) Resistance box
\n4) Unknown Resistance of length 1 m
\n5) connecting Wires
\n6) Screw gauge
\n7) One way key
\n8) Jockey<\/p>\n

PROCEDURE :<\/strong>
\nStep 1) Collect all the instruments and make the connection as shown in figure above
\nStep 2) Take out some suitable resistance ‘R’ form the resistance box (R. B.).
\nStep 3) Touch the jockey at point A; see that there is a deflection in the galvanometer on one side, then touch the jockey on the point C of the wire, the deflection in the galvanometer should be on the other side. If it is so, your connections are correct.’
\nStep 4) Now find the position of null point where deflection in galvanometer becomes zero.
\nNote length AB (l) BC will be (100 – l).
\nStep 5) Repeat the above procedure for different values of ‘R’. Take atleast 5 readings
\nStep\u00a0 6)Note the point where the galvanometer shows 0 deflections, this is called the balance point.
\nStep\u00a0 7) Measure the length of the given wire using ordinary scale and the radius of the wire using screw gauge( Take five readings)<\/p>\n

Viva Voice question for Meter Bridge\/Wheat Stone Bridge<\/strong><\/p>\n

Q1 what do you mean by a resistance?
\nAns: when a potential difference is applied across a conductor, the free electrons start moving in particular directions. While moving through the materials these electrons collide with other atoms and molecules .they oppose this flow of electrons through it, this opposition is called resistance<\/p>\n

Q2 Explain the law of resistance? or How does the resistance of a wire depend on its dimensions?<\/p>\n

Ans: The resistance of a wire depends upon the various factors:
\n1. It directly proportional to its length L.
\n2. It is inversely proportional to its area of cross section A.
\n3. It depends upon the nature of the material.
\n4. It also depends upon the temperature of the wire.<\/p>\n

Q3 Answer these<\/p>\n

a) What is the range of Low resistance
\nAns:Low Resistance: order of 1 ohm and under
\nb) What is the range of Medium resistance<\/p>\n

Ans:Medium Resistance: 1 ohm upwards to about 0.1 M Ohm
\nresistances.

Q8: In a given meter bridge set up, the null point is obtained at a length l cm. If without making any other change, the radius of the meter bridge is doubled, what would be the likely position of the null point now?
\nAnswer Same<\/p>\n

Q9:What happens to the resistivity of a wire when it is double folded?<\/p>\n

Q10: Why do we use thick copper strips to connect the wire of the meter bridge to the rest of the set up?<\/p>\n

Q11:Name the SI unit of the specific resistance (resistivity).

\nAns: the different methods used for measurement of medium resistances are:
\n1. Potentiometer
\n2. Ammeter- voltmeter method
\n3. Kelvin double Bridge method<\/p>\n

Q16: Why does galvanometer show opposite deflection in meter bridge experiment?
\nAnswer:In meter bridge experiment we are using a center zero galvanometer.
\nThe galvanometer has two terminals; we shall call one terminal as X and the other as Y
\nIf VX <\/sub> > VY<\/sub> , then a current will flow from X to Y through the galvanometer and makes the needle to move from its center zero position. Let us say it moves to the right.
\nIf VX <\/sub> < VY<\/sub>, then the current will be reversed and the needle moves to the left from its zero position.
\nIf VX <\/sub> = VY<\/sub> i.e., if the potential difference is zero, no current flows through the galvanometer and the needle remains in its zero position.
\nBy adjusting the jockey, we find the position where there is no potential difference between the two terminals of the galvanometer.<\/p>\n
