Circuit for the measurement of resistance by potentiometer is shown. The galvanometer is first connected at point $A$ and zero deflection is observed at length $P J = 10\ cm$ . In second case it is connected at point $C$ and zero deflection is observed at a length $30\ cm$ from $P$ . Then the unknown resistance $X$ is
  • A$2R$
  • B$\frac{R}{2}$
  • C$\frac{R}{3}$
  • D$3R$
