For a balanced Wheatstone bridge with arms P, Q, R and S arranged in the standard ratio form, the balance condition is?

  • AP/Q = R/S
  • BP+Q = R+S always
  • CPQ = R+S
  • DP/R = Q+S

Correct Answer: A. P/Q = R/S
Explanation: At balance, no detector current flows and the bridge arm ratios satisfy P/Q=R/S (equivalently PS=QR).
