An unknown resistance R1 is connected in series with a resistance of 10 Ω. This combination is connected to one gap of a metre bridge, while a resistance R2 is connected in the other gap. The balance point is at 50 cm. Now, when the 10 Ω resistance is removed the balance point shifts to 40 cm. The value of R1 is (in Ω

Two unknown resistances are connected in two gaps of a meter-bridge. The null point is obtained at 40 cm from left end. A 30 Ω resistance is connected in series with the smaller of the two resistances, the null point shifts by 20 cm to the right end. The value of smaller resistance in Ω is
