The resistance of $10\, m$ long potentiometer wire is $1\,\Omega/m$. $A$ cell of $e.m.f.$ $2.2\, V$ and a high resistance box are connected in series to this wire. The value of resistance taken from the resistance box for getting a potential gradient of $2.2\, mV/m$ will be ............... $\Omega$.

Two cells of e.m.f. $E_1$ and $E_2$ $(E_1 > E_2)$ are connected as shown in the figure. When a potentiometer is connected between points $A$ and $B$, the balancing length of the potentiometer wire is $412 \text{ cm}$. When the same potentiometer is connected between points $A$ and $C$, the balancing length is $103 \text{ cm}$. The ratio $E_1 : E_2$ 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 $m$)

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:
