In an experiment to find the emf of a cell using a potentiometer, the length of the null point for a cell of emf $1.5 \text{ V}$ is found to be $60 \text{ cm}$. If this cell is replaced by another cell of emf $E$, the length of the null point increases by $40 \text{ cm}$. The value of $E$ is $x/10 \text{ V}$. The value of $x$ is

  • A
    $20$
  • B
    $25$
  • C
    $28$
  • D
    $30$

In a potentiometer arrangement,a cell of emf $1.5 \ V$ gives a balance point at $150 \ cm$ length of the wire. If the cell is replaced by another cell and the balance point shifts to $210 \ cm$,what is the emf of the second cell (in $V$)?

$A$ potentiometer is used to measure the potential difference between $A$ and $B$. The null point is obtained at $0.9 \ m$. Now,the potential difference between $A$ and $C$ is measured,and the null point is obtained at $0.3 \ m$. The ratio $\frac{E_2}{E_1}$ is $\left(E_1 > E_2\right)$.

$A$ cell can be balanced against $110 \, cm$ and $100 \, cm$ of potentiometer wire,respectively with and without being short-circuited through a resistance of $10 \, \Omega$. Its internal resistance is ............... $\Omega$.

$A$ potentiometer is used for the comparison of $e.m.f.$ of two cells $E_1$ and $E_2$. For cell $E_1$,the null point is obtained at $20 \ cm$ and for $E_2$,the null point is obtained at $30 \ cm$. The ratio of their $e.m.f.$s will be:

The balancing length for a cell is $560 \; cm$ in a potentiometer experiment. When an external resistance of $10 \; \Omega$ is connected in parallel to the cell,the balancing length changes by $60 \; cm$. If the internal resistance of the cell is $\frac{N}{10} \; \Omega$,where $N$ is an integer,then the value of $N$ is:
