In a potentiometer arrangement,a cell of $emf$ $1.25\; V$ gives a balance point at $35.0\; cm$ length of the wire. If the cell is replaced by another cell and the balance point shifts to $63.0\; cm ,$ what is the $emf$ of the second cell in $V$?

  • A
    $4.65$
  • B
    $2.25$
  • C
    $8.64$
  • D
    $10.52$

The current in the primary circuit of a potentiometer is $0.2 \, A$. The specific resistance and cross-section of the potentiometer wire are $4 \times 10^{-7} \, \Omega \cdot m$ and $8 \times 10^{-7} \, m^2$ respectively. The potential gradient will be equal to .............. $V/m$.

In an experiment with a potentiometer,$V_B = 10 \, V$ and the variable resistance is adjusted to $R = 50 \, \Omega$ (figure). $A$ student wanting to measure the voltage $E_1$ of a battery (approx. $8 \, V$) finds no null point. He then diminishes $R$ to $10 \, \Omega$ and is able to locate the null point on the last $(4^{th})$ segment of the potentiometer wire. Find the resistance of the potentiometer wire and the potential drop per unit length.

The figure shows a potentiometer wire $AB$ having a resistance of $5 \text{ } \Omega$ and a length of $10 \text{ m}$. The e.m.f. of the battery in the primary circuit is $5 \text{ V}$ and the external resistance is $45 \text{ } \Omega$. If the e.m.f. of the cell in the secondary circuit is $0.4 \text{ V}$, find the balancing length $AP$. (Internal resistance is negligible) (in $\text{ m}$)

The $e.m.f.$ of a standard cell balances across $150 \ cm$ length of a potentiometer wire. When a resistance of $2 \ \Omega$ is connected as a shunt across the cell,the balance point is obtained at $100 \ cm$. The internal resistance of the cell is .............. $\Omega$.
