The measurement of an unknown resistance R is to be carried out using Wheatstones bridge (figure). Two students perform an experiment in two ways. The first students takes R2 = 10 Ω and R1 = 5 Ω. The other student takes R2 = 1000 Ω and R1 = 500 Ω. In the standard arm, both take R3 = 5 Ω. Both find R = `R_2/R_1 R_3` = 10 Ω within errors.
- The errors of measurement of the two students are the same.
- Errors of measurement do depend on the accuracy with which R2 and R1 can be measured.
- If the student uses large values of R2 and R1, the currents through the arms will be feeble. This will make determination of null point accurately more difficult.
- Wheatstone bridge is a very accurate instrument and has no errors of measurement.
