CONCEPT:

 

  • Meter Bridge: It is an electrical instruments based on the principle of Wheatstone bridge and is used to measure an unknown resistance.
  • In the case of a meter bridge, the resistance wire AC is 100 cm long. Varying the position of tapping point B, the bridge is balanced.
  • If in the balanced position of bridge AB = l, BC (100 – l) so that

 

Also,  Here S is unknown resistance that can be measured with the help of the meter bridge.

EXPLANATION:

  • Thus the meter bridge is used to measure the resistance of a resistor. So option 3 is correct.
