MEASUREMENT OF RESISTANCE

            ( WHEATSTONE’S BRIDGE)

Condition (1) :- MEASUREMENT OF RESISTANCE

AIM :-

You are given a Wheatstone bridge and other necessary instruments. Find the values of the unknown resistance Rx. Exchange the positions of unknown resistance and resistance box in the gaps of Wheatstone bridge and repeat the experiment.

PRINCIPLE :-

It works on the principle of balanced Wheatstone bridge.

Apparatus :-

Wheatstone-bridge (meter-bridge),

2 Volt Battery,

Rheostat,

Galvanometer,          

Jockey,

Key,

Resistance box(1 – 100  W),

Resistance coil.

Precautions

1. Make proper and tight connections.
2. Keep the keys tightly closed in the resistance box.
3. Adjust the value of resistance box so that null point is obtained between 40 cm and 60 cm.
4. Do not slide the jokey continuously over the wire. 

Note :-  Keep high resistance of rheostat in the beginning of each observation so that current is less and the galvanometer is not damaged. After getting approximate position of null point only decrease the resistance of rheostat.

 LAWS OF COMBINATION OF RESISTORS

( WHEATSTONE’S BRIDGE & POST OFFICE BOX )

Experiment :- 3.1

AIM :-

You are given a Wheatstone Bridge and other necessary instruments.

Find the values of the unknown resistance Rx and Ry .

Now connect them in series and parallel respectively and measure their resultant resistances and test the laws of series and parallel connections.

PRINCIPLE :-

It works on the  principle of a balanced Wheatstone bridge.

Apparatus :-

Wheatstone-bridge (meter-bridge),

2 Volt Battery,

Rheostat,

Galvanometer, 

Jockey,

Key,

Resistance box(1 – 100  W),

Resistance coil.

Precautions

(1)   Make all connections tight.

(2)    Clean the ends of the connecting wire with a sand paper.

(3)    Plug keys of resistance box should be very tight.

(4)     Adjust the value of R from the resistance box such that null-point is obtained between 40 cm. and 60 cm.
