In potentiometer experiments,two cells of e.m.f. $E_1$ and $E_2$ are connected in series $(E_1 > E_2)$,the balancing length is $64 \ cm$ of the wire. If the polarity of $E_2$ is reversed,the balancing length becomes $32 \ cm$. The ratio $E_1 / E_2$ is

The length of a potentiometer wire is $L$. $A$ cell of e.m.f. $E$ is balanced at a length $\frac{L}{4}$ from the positive end of the wire. If the length of the original wire is increased by $\frac{L}{3}$,then using the same cell,the null point is obtained at:

In a potentiometer experiment,cells of e.m.f. $E_1$ and $E_2$ are connected in series $(E_1 > E_2)$. The balancing length is $64 \ cm$ of the wire. If the polarity of $E_2$ is reversed,the balancing length becomes $32 \ cm$. The ratio $\frac{E_1}{E_2}$ is: (in $: 1$)

In a potentiometer experiment,when two cells of emfs $E_1$ and $E_2$ $(E_2 > E_1)$ are connected in series,the balancing length is $160 \ cm$. If one of the cells is reversed,the balancing length decreases by $75 \%$. If $E_1 = 1.2 \ V$,then $E_2 =$ (in $V$)
