please answer all of them. they are from meter bridge experiment class 12
2. If the metre bridge wire is not of uniform area of cross section,
how will it affect the observations?
Fig. E 2.3 Defective scale of a metre bridge
3. If the metre bridge wire is not made of a material of uniform density,
how will it affect the observations?
4. If the same experiment is performed with AC = 50 cm wire instead
of 1 m, what changes would be there in the result?
5. The scale attached along the wire may not indicate the exact
length as shown in Fig. E 2.3. How would you minimise the error?
6. Why is the metre bridge not suitable for measuring very
high/very low resistances?
7. Why is the metre bridge preferred for determining the resistanceof a wire over the Ohms law circuit
3> the uniform density of material is necessary for the accuracy of metre scale , due to change in mass per per unit length its restivity and hence the resistance changes over its length, which gives error in observation.
4> we can take the length 50 cm we can take it 50cm and carry out observation .(no change in value of observation)
5> to minimise the error we must tight the wire along the meter scale so to minimise the error
6> the metre scale cannot be used for high value of resistance because it becomes insensitive for too high resistance .
7> metre bridge is preferred because it works on the null deflection method and gives most accurate result.
