The Wheatstone bridge shown in fig. here gets balanced when the carbon resistor used as R1 has the colour code (orange, Red, Brown). The resistors R2 and R4 are 80 Ω and 40 Ω, respectively. Assuming that the colour code for the carbon resistors given their accurate values, the colour code for the carbon resistor, used as R3, would be :

The actual value of resistance R, shown in the figure is 30 Ω. This is measured in an experiment as shown using the standard formula R=VI, where V and I are the readings of the voltmeter and ammeter, respectively. If the measured value of R is 5% less, then the internal resistance of the voltmeter is

In the experimental set--up of metre bridge shown in the figure, the null point is obtained at a distance of 40 cm from A. If a 10 Ω resistor is connected in series with R1, the null point shifts by 10 cm. The resistance that should be connected in parallel with R1+10 Ω such that the null point shifts back to its initial position is
