If the galvanometer does not show any deflection in the circuit shown, the value of is given by:

- A50
- B100
- C400
- D200
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
For no reading galvanometer. Potential across it is same.

$$\mathrm{i}_{400 \Omega} \Rightarrow \frac{10-2}{400}=\frac{8}{400}=\frac{1}{50}=\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{R}}$$
$$\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{R}} \Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{R}}}{\mathrm{R}} \Rightarrow \frac{2}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{1}{50} \Rightarrow \mathrm{R}=100 \Omega$$
