In a metre-bridge when a resistance in the left gap is $2\  \Omega$ and unknown resistance in the right gap, the balance length is found to be $40\  \mathrm{~cm}$. On shunting the unknown resistance with $2\  \Omega$, the balance length changes by :
  • A$22.5 \mathrm{~cm}$
  • B$20 \mathrm{~cm}$
  • C$62.5 \mathrm{~cm}$
  • D$65 \mathrm{~cm}$
