End correction
B
Index error
C
Due to temperature effect
D

A
End correction
a (a) In meter bridge experiment, it is assumed that the resistance of the $L$ shaped plate is negligible, but actually it is not so. The error created due to this is called, end error. To remove this the resistance box and he unknown resistance must be interchanged and then the mean reading must be taken.

A certain piece of silver of given mass is to be made like a wire. Which of the following combination of length $(L)$ and the area of cross-sectional $(A) $ will lead to the smallest resistance
The figure shows a meter-bridge circuit, with $AB = 100\, cm$,$ X = 12\,\Omega$ and $R = 18\,\Omega$ , and the jockey $J$ in the position of balance. If $R$ is now made $8\,\Omega$ , through what distance will $J$ have to be moved to obtain balance? .............. $cm$
As shown, the circuit is made of $8$ different resistors. It is found that when $R_1 = 4\,\,\Omega,$ the resistance between $A$ and $B$ is $2\,\,\Omega.$ Now replace $R_1$ by a $6\,\,\Omega$ resistor, what is the resistance between $A$ and $B$?
For what value of unknown resistance $X$, the potential difference between $B$ and $D$ will be zero in the circuit shown in the figure ............... $\Omega$
