$A$ voltmeter reads the potential difference across the terminals of an old battery as $1.2 \, V$,while a potentiometer reads $1.4 \, V$. The internal resistance of the battery is $40 \, \Omega$. What is the resistance of the voltmeter in $\Omega$?

Two cells,when connected in series,are balanced on $8 \; m$ on a potentiometer. If the cells are connected such that the polarity of one of the cells is reversed,they balance on $2 \; m$. The ratio of the $e.m.f.$'s of the two cells is:

In the circuit shown, a four-wire potentiometer is made of a $400\, cm$ long wire, which extends between $A$ and $B$. The resistance per unit length of the potentiometer wire is $r = 0.01\, \Omega /cm$. If an ideal voltmeter is connected as shown with jockey $J$ at $50\, cm$ from end $A$, the expected reading of the voltmeter will be: ............... $V$

$A$ thermocouple of negligible resistance produces an $e.m.f.$ of $40\,\mu V/^{\circ}C$ in the linear range of temperature. $A$ galvanometer of resistance $10\,\Omega$ whose sensitivity is $1\,\mu A/\text{div}$ is employed with the thermocouple. The smallest value of temperature difference that can be detected by the system will be (in $^{\circ}C$)
