Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a Wheatstone bridge, if R1 = 10Ω, R2 = 20Ω, R3 = 15Ω, what should R4 be for the bridge to be balanced?
Correct Answer: 30Ω
  • Step 1: Write down the formula for a balanced Wheatstone bridge: R1/R2 = R3/R4.
  • Step 2: Substitute the known values into the formula: 10/20 = 15/R4.
  • Step 3: Simplify the left side of the equation: 10/20 equals 0.5.
  • Step 4: Now the equation looks like this: 0.5 = 15/R4.
  • Step 5: To find R4, cross-multiply: 0.5 * R4 = 15.
  • Step 6: Divide both sides by 0.5 to isolate R4: R4 = 15 / 0.5.
  • Step 7: Calculate R4: R4 = 30Ω.
