$A$ potentiometer wire has length $10\, m$ and resistance $20\,\Omega$. $A$ $2.5\, V$ battery of negligible internal resistance is connected across the wire with an $80\,\Omega$ series resistance. The potential gradient on the wire will be

$A$ cell balances against a length of $150 \ cm$ on a potentiometer wire when it is shunted by a resistance of $5 \ \Omega$. But when it is shunted by a resistance of $10 \ \Omega$,then the balancing length increases by $25 \ cm$. The balancing length when the cell is in an open circuit is: (in $cm$)

In an experiment to measure the internal resistance of a cell by a potentiometer,it is found that the balance point is at a length of $2\,m$ when the cell is shunted by a $5\,\Omega$ resistance; and is at a length of $3\,m$ when the cell is shunted by a $10\,\Omega$ resistance. The internal resistance of the cell is,then ................ $\Omega$.

The length of a potentiometer wire is $L$. $A$ cell of e.m.f. $E$ is balanced at a length $\frac{L}{5}$ from the positive end of the wire. If the length of the wire is increased by $\frac{L}{2}$,the same cell will give a balance point at distance $x$. The value of $x$ is

Two cells $A$ and $B$ are connected in the secondary circuit of a potentiometer one at a time,and the balancing lengths are $400 \ cm$ and $440 \ cm$ respectively. The emf of cell $A$ is $1.08 \ V$. The emf of the second cell $B$ in volts is:
