B. 240 cm
C. 480 cm
D. 600 cm

Correct Answer - C
At null point, no current flows through galvanometer. Therefore, the resistance connected in series with galvnometer, at null point position will be ineffective. Thus, null point is obtained on potentiometer wire at the original position after the removal of series resistance galvanometer.
