CAREY FOSTER'S BRIDGE SIMULATION

Choose Load Resistence X(In Ohms)

 

Selected value is  


Formulas

Length(l1,measured from left side when Load resistance X placed in left)


Table 1: To determine the resistance per unit length of the bridge wire (ρ):

S.No. Resistance connected in decimal
resistance box X (in ohm)
Zero deflection Position when resistance box is connected (l2-l1)
( in cms)
ρ = X/ (l2-l1)
(in ohms)
In left gap l1 (in cms) In right gap l2 (in cms)

Table 2: For the resistance of the given wire (Y):

S.No. Resistance connected in decimal
resistance box X (in ohm)
Zero deflection Position when resistance box is connected (l2-l1)
( in cms)
Y = X- ρ (l2-l1)
