Assertion: the Wagner earth is adjusted alternately with the bridge arms. Reason: earthing the bridge at one corner would short out one of its arms.

  • A.the assertion is true but the reason given for it is false
  • B.both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason explains the assertion
  • C.both the assertion and the reason are true but the reason does not explain the assertion
  • D.the assertion is false although the reason offered is a true statement in itself

Answer: A

The alternate adjustment is needed because the two nulls interact, not because a corner earth would short an arm. Earthing one corner is in fact perfectly possible; it simply leaves the stray capacitances of the other corners in parallel with the arms, which is what the Wagner branch is designed to avoid.
