A Wheatstone bridge is said to be completely balanced when:
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
A Wheatstone bridge circuit consists of four arms with resistances P, Q, R, S and a galvanometer in the middle. It is balanced when no current flows through the galvanometer arm. This happens exclusively when the potentials at the two ends of the galvanometer are equal, meaning the potential difference across it is exactly zero (P/Q = R/S).

The root mean square value of alternating current is defined as the equivalent DC current that produces the same:
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
RMS value of AC is defined such that I_rms²R = average power dissipated, same as DC current I_dc would produce (I_dc²R). Thus I_rms = I₀/√2 for sinusoidal AC. This definition ensures power calculations use RMS values. Memory tip: 'RMS: heating effect equivalent to DC; I_rms = 0.707 I₀ for sine wave'. This AC fundamentals concept is frequently tested in competitive exams. Always use RMS values for power calculations in AC circuits; peak values overestimate power.
