Hay’s bridge is particularly useful for measuring

a: Inductive impedance with large phase angle Explanation

Explanation

b: Capacitance and dielectric loss Explanation

Explanation

c: Mutual inductance Explanation

Explanation

d: Self inductance Explanation

Explanation

The four arms of the Hay Bridge, are arranged as follows. AB: consists with unknown impedance. BC: non-inductive resistor of 16800 `Ω`. CD: consists of non-inductive resistor of 950 `Ω` in series with a standard capacitor of 1.57 uF. DA:non-inductive resistor of 1000 `Ω`.The supply frequency is 50 Hz. Determine the inductance and resistance of the unknown impedance at balance condition
