Calculate the value of unknown resistance, Rx in a Wheatstone bridge in Figure 1 if R1 = 20k,


R2 = 40k and R3 = 16k.

which its resistance value is very sensitive to temperature and has positive temperature
coefficient. The temperature coefficient of thermistor is 5 /C. At 50C the resistance of the
thermistor is 1 k. Find the value of temperature if the Thevenin voltage of bridge is 50 mV.

combination of an unknown resistor and unknown reactive element. Find the value of the
unknown reactive element.
