    The Wheatstone bridge shown in Fig. here, gets balanced when the carbon resistor used as R, has the colour code (Orange, Red, Brown), The resistors \[{{R}_{2}}\] and \[{{R}_{4}}\] are \[80\Omega \] and\[40\Omega ,\], respectively.
    Assuming that the colour code for the carbon resistors gives their accurate values, the colour code for the carbon resistor, used as \[{{R}_{3}}\] would be:

    A) Brown, Blue, Brown

    B) Brown, Blue, Black

    C) Red, Green, Brown

    D) Grey, Black, Brown

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[{{R}_{1}}=32\times 10=320\Omega \]
    \[{{R}_{3}}=\frac{{{R}_{y}}}{{{R}_{2}}}\times {{R}_{1}}=\frac{40\times 320}{80}=160\Omega \]
    \[\therefore \]Colour code or \[{{R}_{3}}\] be Brown, Blue, Brown.
