$AB$ is a potentiometer wire of length $100\, cm$ and its resistance is $10\,\Omega$. It is connected in series with a resistance $R = 40\,\Omega$ and a battery of $e.m.f.$ $2\,V$ and negligible internal resistance. If a source of unknown $e.m.f.$ $E$ is balanced by $40\, cm$ length of the potentiometer wire,the value of $E$ is ................. $V$. (in $,V$)

When two cells are connected in series in a potentiometer circuit to assist each other,the balancing length is $6 \ m$. When they are connected in series to oppose each other,the balancing length is $2 \ m$. What is the ratio of the $EMF$ of the two cells?

$A$ potentiometer wire of length $4 \text{ m}$ and resistance $5 \Omega$ is connected in series with a resistance of $992 \Omega$ and a cell of e.m.f. $4 \text{ V}$ with internal resistance $3 \Omega$. The length of $0.75 \text{ m}$ on the potentiometer wire balances the e.m.f. of: (in $\text{ mV}$)

In an experiment with a potentiometer,$V_B = 10 \, V$ and the variable resistance is adjusted to $R = 50 \, \Omega$ (figure). $A$ student wanting to measure the voltage $E_1$ of a battery (approx. $8 \, V$) finds no null point. He then diminishes $R$ to $10 \, \Omega$ and is able to locate the null point on the last $(4^{th})$ segment of the potentiometer wire. Find the resistance of the potentiometer wire and the potential drop per unit length.
