$A$ potentiometer wire is $100 \, cm$ long and a constant potential difference is maintained across it. Two cells are connected in series first to support one another and then in opposite direction. The balance points are obtained at $50 \, cm$ and $10 \, cm$ from the positive end of the wire in the two cases. The ratio of emfs is:

In the potentiometer experiment shown in the figure,for the position $X$ of the jockey $J$,there occurs a null deflection in the galvanometer. Then the potential difference between points $A$ and $X$ 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 $,V/cm$)?

With the help of a potentiometer,we can determine the value of the emf of a given cell. The sensitivity of the potentiometer is:
$(A)$ directly proportional to the length of the potentiometer wire
$(B)$ directly proportional to the potential gradient of the wire
$(C)$ inversely proportional to the potential gradient of the wire
$(D)$ inversely proportional to the length of the potentiometer wire
Choose the correct option for the above statements:

$A$ potentiometer having a potential gradient of $2\, mV/cm$ is used to measure the potential difference across a resistance of $10\, \Omega$. If a length of $50\, cm$ of the potentiometer wire is required to obtain the null point,the current passing through the $10\, \Omega$ resistor is (in $mA$):
