Question

By using the variations on a Wheatstone bridge we can _________

(a) measure quantities such as voltage, current and power

(b) measure high resistance values

(c) measure quantities such as complex power

(d) measure quantities such as capacitance, inductance and impedance

This question was posed to me by my college director while I was bunking the class.

This interesting question is from Applications of Wheatstone Bridge in section Measurement of Resistance of Electrical Measurements

Answer 1

Correct choice is (d) measure quantities such as capacitance, inductance and impedance

Explanation: In its simplest form a Whetstone bridge consists of resistive arms. A Wheatstone bridge is used for the measurement of quantities such as capacitance, inductance and impedance by making use of the variations.
