NEET Physics Wheatstone Bridge MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Hard-Class 12
Consider a Wheatstone bridge circuit consisting of four resistors R1, R2, R3, and R4. The bridge is balanced when the ratio of resistors satisfies a certain condition. Which of the following correctly represents the balance condition for this Wheatstone bridge?
A
R1/R2 = R3/R4
B
R1/R3 = R4/R2
C
R2/R1 = R3/R4
D
R1/R4 = R3/R2
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
The balance condition for a Wheatstone bridge is given by R1/R3 = R2/R4, as derived from the equations utilizing Kirchhoff’s rules.
