Question

What is the end error in meter bridge?

Answer 1

1. A meter bridge is a device that is used to measure the resistance of a conductor.
2. The resistance can be measured on a meter scale, which is a component of the instrument.
3. The end error of a meter scale is the error due to the shifting of the zero of the scale.
4. Additionally, non-uniform wires used cause unaccounted stray resistances that can also lead to errors.

Here, $R$ is the known resistance, $S$ is the unknown resistance and $G$ is the galvanometer.
