    $3$
  • B
    $4$

$A$ cell can be balanced against $110 \ cm$ and $100 \ cm$ of potentiometer wire,respectively with and without being short-circuited through a resistance of $10 \ \Omega$. Its internal resistance is

In a potentiometer, the area of cross-section of the wire is $4 \, cm^2$, the current flowing in the circuit is $1 \, A$ and the potential gradient is $7.5 \, V/m$, then the resistivity of the potentiometer wire is

In a potentiometer experiment,it is found that no current passes through the galvanometer when the terminals of the cell are connected across $52 \ cm$ of the potentiometer wire. If the cell is shunted by a resistance of $5 \ \Omega$,a balance is found when the cell is connected across $40 \ cm$ of the wire. Find the internal resistance of the cell ........... $\Omega$.

If the length of a potentiometer wire is increased,then the length of the previously obtained balance point will
