The length of a potentiometer wire is $4 \,m$ and is connected in series with an accumulator. The e.m.f. of a cell balances against $1.5 \,m$ length of the wire. If the length of the potentiometer wire is doubled,then the new balancing length of the wire will be: (in $\,m$)

$A$ potentiometer wire of length $1 \, m$ is connected in series with a $490 \, \Omega$ resistance and a $2 \, V$ battery. If the potential gradient is $0.2 \, mV/cm$,then the resistance of the potentiometer wire is ................ $\Omega$. (in $.9$)

$A$ potentiometer is an ideal device for measuring potential difference because

The potential gradient along the length of a uniform wire is $10\,V/m$. $B$ and $C$ are two points at $30\,cm$ and $60\,cm$ on a meter scale fitted along the wire. The potential difference between $B$ and $C$ will be ............. $V$.

$A$ potentiometer wire of length $100 \ cm$ and resistance $3 \ \Omega$ is connected in series with a resistance of $8 \ \Omega$ and an accumulator of $4 \ V$ whose internal resistance is $1 \ \Omega$. $A$ cell of e.m.f. $E$ is balanced by $50 \ cm$ length of the wire. The e.m.f. of the cell is: (in $V$)
