In a meter bridge the point D is a neutral point (Figure).


A. The meter bridge can have no other neutral point for this set of resistances.
B. When the jockey contacts a point on meter wire left of D, current flows to B from the wire.
C. When the jockey contacts a point on the meter wire to the right of D, current flows from B to the wire through galvanometer.
D. When R is increased, the neutral point shifts to left.

The correct answers are the options (a,c)

Explanation: No current will flow through the Galvanometer when the jockey is placed at D. Potential Difference between B and D is zero. If the jockey is placed to the right of D, Potential at B becomes greater than the potential at D, the current flows from B to D.
