Q196 / 225 · JEE Main 2005 · Physics
In the circuit, the galvanometer $G$ shows zero deflection. If the batteries $A$ and $B$ have negligible internal resistance, the value of the resistor $\mathrm{R}$ will be


- A$200 \Omega$
- Correct answerB$100 \Omega$
- C$500 \Omega$
- D$1000 \Omega$
Solution
$\frac{12 \mathrm{R}}{500+\mathrm{R}}=2$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
