Calculate the value of R in the balance condition of the Wheatstone bridge, if the carbon resistor connected across the arm C D has the colour sequence red, red and orange as shown in the figure, Fig. If now the resistance of the arms B C and C D are interchanged, to obtain the balance condition, another carbon resistor is connected in place of R. What now be the sequence of colour bands of the carbon resistor?
