In a potentiometer arrangement,a cell gives a balancing point at $75 \, cm$ length of wire. This cell is now replaced by another cell of unknown emf. If the ratio of the emf's of two cells respectively is $3:2$,the difference in the balancing length of the potentiometer wire in above two cases will be ......... $cm$.

In a potentiometer circuit, a cell of $EMF$ $1.5\, V$ gives a balance point at $36\, cm$ length of wire. If another cell of $EMF$ $2.5\, V$ replaces the first cell, then at what length of the wire will the balance point occur? (in $cm$)

$A$ wire of length $100\, cm$ is connected to a cell of $emf$ $2\, V$ and negligible internal resistance. The resistance of the wire is $3\, \Omega$. The additional resistance required to produce a potential drop of $1\, mV/cm$ is ............... $\Omega$.

$A$ cell of internal resistance $1.5\,\Omega$ and of $e.m.f.$ $1.5\,V$ balances at $500\,cm$ on a potentiometer wire. If a wire of $15\,\Omega$ is connected between the balance point and the cell,then the balance point will shift:

$A$ 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 $m$)
