Mean RS = 15.49 Ω 5. The balancing length 𝑙 is measured. The equivalent resistance of the
𝑺𝒍
series combination is calculated using the formula. RS =𝟏𝟎𝟎−𝒍

R1 and R2 are resistances, G – Galvanometer Where, S is resistance in right gap, 𝑙 is balancing length
Observations: 2. Equivalent resistance (RS ) of parallel combination
