What is the difference between the Carey foster bridge and meter bridge?
There is no great difference between between the two in principlebut,In a Carey foster's bridge there is no end resistance whereas in the case of a metre bridge end resistance afffects our readings.Hence Carey foster bridge is more accurate than metre bridge .Carey foster bridge can also measure low resistance and high resistance but a metre bridge cannot do so.
What device is used to measure the resistance of a resistor?
You can use a multi-meter to measure resistance. The specific portion of the meter for measuring resistance is called an ohmmeter.
How do you measure alternating current voltage and resistance?
You measure current by inserting an amp meter in series with the circuit or using a clamp-on meter to measure current by induction. You measure voltage with a volt meter across the supply. You measure resistance in ohms across the resistance. Luckily all these functions are in the same meter in most cases.
How do you measure armature resistance practically?
by using measuring meter
Are there any other methods for measuring resistance?
An Ohm Meter.
In physics what is the use of meter bridge?
A meter bridge is used to measure an unknown electrical resistance by comparing it with a known resistance. It works on the principle of Wheatstone bridge. By balancing the bridge circuit, the value of the unknown resistance can be calculated accurately.
Why meter bridge can't be used to measure low resistance and high resistance?
used to measure low Resistance since it must reach a null.
What is the function of a Carey foster bridge?
A Carey-foster's bridge is a modified version of the meter bridge (wheatstone bridge or potentiometer). It can be used to find out the average resistance per unit length of the meter bridge wire and hence find out the unknown resistance. It is more accurate and more sensitive than a meter bridge.

What is the difference between Wheatstone bridge and meter bridge?
WHEATSTONE BRIDGE : A wheatstone bridge is used to measure an unknown electrical resistance by balancing two legs of a bridge circuit, one leg of which includes the unknown compound.Its operation is similar to the original potentiometer. METER BRIDGE : A uniform resistance wire 1 meter in length, mounted above a scale marked in millimeters, with terminals added to make the device usable as either part of a wheatstone bridge or of a potentiometer.

What is the use of jockey in meter bridge?
In a meter bridge, the jockey is used to slide along the wire to make contact with the resistance wire and balance the bridge by finding the null point. This allows for accurate measurement of unknown resistance by comparing it with a known resistance.
Are there any videos where metre bridge, commutator and Peltier's effect are explained together?
(a) The connection between the resistors in a meter bridge is made of thick copper strips because the resistivity of a copper wire is very low. As, the connections are thick, so the area becomes large and the resistance of the wires becomes almost negligible. (b) It is preferred to obtain the balance point in the middle of the meter bridge wire because it improves the sensitivity of the meter bridge. (c) Constant is used for meter bridge wire because its temperature coefficient of resistance is almost negligible due to which the resistance of the wire does not get affected on increasing temperature of the wire during flow of current.
WHY CAREY FOSTER BRIDGE IS MORE ACCURATE AND SENSITIVE THAN METER BRIDGE?
The Carey Foster Bridge is more accurate and sensitive than the meter bridge due to its design, which minimizes errors caused by contact resistance and wire resistance. It employs a longer bridge length and a finer scale, allowing for better resolution in measurements. Additionally, the Carey Foster Bridge uses a differential method to measure unknown resistances, enhancing its sensitivity and reliability in determining precise resistance values. This makes it particularly effective for experiments requiring high accuracy.
When the leads of the meter are touched together a nd the meter is set to measure resistance what should the resistance reading be?
Zero ohms.
How test resistances?
we can measure the resistance if we know the voltage and current passing through a line (V=IR)AnswerYou can measure its approximate resistance using an ohmmeter, but ohmmeters aren't particularly accurate. A better way would be to use a Wheatstone Bridge, which is highly accurate.
What is end correction in meter bridge?
End correction in a meter bridge refers to the added resistance due to the non-zero dimensions of the connecting wires or strips at the ends of the bridge. This added resistance needs to be accounted for when using the meter bridge for precise measurements. Calculating the end correction helps ensure accurate results when determining unknown resistances.
