$A$ potentiometer is used for the comparison of $e.m.f.$ of two cells $E_1$ and $E_2$. For cell $E_1$,the null point is obtained at $20 \ cm$ and for $E_2$,the null point is obtained at $30 \ cm$. The ratio of their $e.m.f.$s will be:

The length of a potentiometer wire is $1200 \; cm$ and it carries a current of $60 \; mA$. For a cell of $emf \; 5 \; V$ and internal resistance of $20 \; \Omega$,the null point on it is found to be at $1000 \; cm$. The resistance of the whole wire is .............. $\Omega$.

In a potentiometer circuit,a cell of $2\,V$ $e.m.f.$ and $5\,\Omega$ internal resistance is connected to a uniform wire of length $1000\,cm$ and resistance $15\,\Omega$. The potential gradient of the wire is:

$A$ cell in the 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 $m$)
