$A$ battery of $6\,V$ is connected to the terminals of a $3\,m$ long wire of uniform thickness and resistance of the order of $100\,\Omega$. The difference of potential between two points separated by $50\,cm$ on the wire will be .......... $V$.

$A$ potentiometer is used to measure the potential difference between $A$ and $B$. The null point is obtained at $0.9 \ m$. Now,the potential difference between $A$ and $C$ is measured,and the null point is obtained at $0.3 \ m$. The ratio $\frac{E_2}{E_1}$ is $\left(E_1 > E_2\right)$.

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

The figure shows a potentiometer with a cell of $2.0 \; V$ and internal resistance $0.40 \; \Omega$ maintaining a potential drop across the resistor wire $AB$. $A$ standard cell which maintains a constant $emf$ of $1.02 \; V$ (for very moderate currents up to a few $mA$) gives a balance point at $67.3 \; cm$ length of the wire. To ensure very low currents are drawn from the standard cell,a very high resistance of $600 \; k \Omega$ is put in series with it,which is shorted close to the balance point. The standard cell is then replaced by a cell of unknown $emf$ $\varepsilon$ and the balance point found similarly,turns out to be at $82.3 \; cm$ length of the wire.
$(a)$ What is the value of $\varepsilon ?$
$(b)$ What purpose does the high resistance of $600 \; k \Omega$ have?
$(c)$ Is the balance point affected by this high resistance?
$(d)$ Would the method work in the above situation if the driver cell of the potentiometer had an $emf$ of $1.0 \; V$ instead of $2.0 \; V ?$
$(e)$ Would the circuit work well for determining an extremely small $emf$,say of the order of a few $mV$ (such as the typical $emf$ of a thermocouple)? If not,how will you modify the circuit?

$A$ $6 \, V$ battery of negligible internal resistance is connected across a uniform wire $AB$ of length $1 \, m$. The positive terminal of another battery of emf $4 \, V$ and internal resistance $1 \, \Omega$ is joined to point $A$ as shown in the figure. The ammeter shows zero deflection when the jockey touches the wire at point $C$. The length $AC$ is equal to:

In a potentiometer circuit, when two cells of e.m.f. $1.5 \text{ V}$ and $1.2 \text{ V}$ are connected to assist each other, the balancing length is $270 \text{ cm}$. What will be the balancing length in $\text{cm}$ when these two cells are connected in opposition?
