Paano Kalkulahin si Wheatstone

Ano ang Wheatstone?

The Wheatstone bridge is a circuit used to measure unknown electrical resistance by balancing two legs of a bridge circuit. R_unknown = R3 × (R2/R1).

Pormula

At balance: R1/R2 = R3/Rx — solve for unknown Rx
At
R3/Rx — solve for unknown Rx — R3/Rx — solve for unknown Rx
R1
R3/Rx — solve for unknown Rx — R3/Rx — solve for unknown Rx
R2
R3/Rx — solve for unknown Rx — R3/Rx — solve for unknown Rx
R3
R3 value — Variable used in the calculation
Rx
Rx value — Variable used in the calculation

Step-by-Step na Gabay

  1. 1Four resistors arranged in a diamond (bridge) configuration
  2. 2A galvanometer in the centre detects current imbalance
  3. 3At balance: R1/R2 = R3/Rx — solve for unknown Rx

Mga Nalutas na Halimbawa

Input
R1=100Ω, R2=200Ω, R3=150Ω
Resulta
Rx = 300Ω
Bridge balanced when R1/R2 = R3/Rx

Mga Karaniwang Mali na Dapat Iwasan

  • Assuming the bridge must be exact — modern circuits use operational amplifiers for nulling
  • Ignoring lead resistance in precision measurements

Mga madalas itanong

What is a Wheatstone bridge used for?

Precision measurement of resistance, strain gauges, temperature sensors (RTDs), and load cells.

What happens when the bridge is balanced?

No current flows through the galvanometer. The voltage across it is zero.
