Four resistors of resistances \(15~ \Omega , 12~ \Omega , 4~ \Omega ,\) and \(10 ~\Omega \) are connected in cyclic order to form a Wheatstone network. To balance the network, an additional resistor is connected in parallel with the \(10 ~\Omega \) resistor. The value of this additional resistance should be:
1. \(10~\Omega\)
2. \(20~\Omega\)
3. \(30~\Omega\)
4. \(40~\Omega\)

Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): In the Wheatstone Bridge shown in the figure, if the resistances in opposite arms are switched (i.e. \(Q, R \) are exchanged) then the bridge remains balanced if it was initially balanced. 
Reason (R): The balance condition \(\dfrac P Q\) = \(\dfrac R S\) is not affected if resistances in opposite arms are switched. 
1. (A) is True but (R) is False.
2. (A) is False but (R) is True.
3. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of  (A).
4. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
