$A$ cell in a 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 $m$)

  • A
    $3.5$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $2.75$
  • D
    $2.0$

In a potentiometer of $10$ wires,the balance point is obtained on the $6^{\text{th}}$ wire. To shift the balance point to the $8^{\text{th}}$ wire,we should:

For a cell of $e.m.f.$ $2\,V$,a balance is obtained for $50\, cm$ of the potentiometer wire. If the cell is shunted by a $2\,\Omega$ resistor and the balance is obtained across $40\, cm$ of the wire,then the internal resistance of the cell is ............. $\Omega$.

In an experiment of a potentiometer for measuring the internal resistance of a primary cell,a balancing length $\ell$ is obtained on the potentiometer wire when the cell is in an open circuit. Now,the cell is short-circuited by a resistance $R$. If $R$ is equal to the internal resistance of the cell,the balancing length on the potentiometer wire will be:

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 $63.0\,cm,$ the $emf$ of the second cell is ............... $V$.

$A$ cell of $emf$ $2 \,V$ and internal resistance $5 \,\Omega$ is connected to a wire of length $100 \,cm$ and resistance $15 \,\Omega$. What is the potential gradient along the wire (in $,V/cm$)?
