The length of a potentiometer wire is $\ell$. $A$ cell of emf $E$ is balanced at a length $\ell/3$ from the positive end of the wire. If the length of the wire is increased by $\ell/2$,at what distance will the same cell give a balanced point?

$A$ potentiometer wire of length $4 \, m$ and resistance $5 \, \Omega$ is connected in series with a resistance of $992 \, \Omega$ and a cell of e.m.f. $4 \, V$ with internal resistance $3 \, \Omega$. The length of $0.75 \, m$ on the potentiometer wire balances the e.m.f. of (in $ \, mV$)

With a potentiometer,null points were obtained at $140 \, cm$ and $180 \, cm$ with cells of $emf$ $1.1 \, V$ and one unknown $X \, V$. The unknown $emf$ is .............. $V$.

$A$ cell in the secondary circuit gives a null deflection for $2.5 \,m$ length of a potentiometer wire having a total length of $10 \,m$. If the length of the potentiometer wire is increased by $1 \,m$ without changing the cell in the primary circuit, the new position of the null point is: (in $m$)

For the measurement of potential difference,a potentiometer is preferred in comparison to a voltmeter because:

Two cells of e.m.f.s $E_1$ and $E_2$ $(E_1 > E_2)$ are connected as shown in the figure. When the potentiometer is connected between $A$ and $B$,the balancing length of the potentiometer wire is $3.60 \ m$. On connecting the potentiometer between $A$ and $C$,the balancing length is $0.90 \ m$. The ratio $E_1 / E_2$ is
