Given: A Wheatstone bridge with R_1 = 4 Ω, R_2 = 8 Ω, R_3 = 6 Ω, R_4 = 12 Ω has a 12 V battery across AC and a galvanometer ( 2 Ω ) across BD. What is the current through the galvanometer? Formula: Check balance: R_1/R_2 = 4/8 = 0.5, R_3/R_4 = 6/12 = 0.5. Substitution & Calculation: Bridge is balanced. Since balanced, I_g = 0 A . Final Result: The computed value matches expected outcome and confirms correct choice as per latest NCERT 2026-27.
