The length of a potentiometer wire is $2.5 \ m$ and its resistance is $8 \ \Omega$. $A$ cell of negligible internal resistance and emf of $2.5 \ V$ is connected in series with a resistance of $242 \ \Omega$ in the primary circuit. The potential difference between two points separated by a distance of $20 \ cm$ on the potentiometer wire is (in $mV$)

Balancing point of a potentiometer shifts from a length of $60 \ cm$ to $40 \ cm$ by shunting the cell with a $4 \ \Omega$ resistance. What is the internal resistance of the cell (in $\Omega$)?

For a cell,the balancing length is $0.60 \, m$. For another cell having an electromotive force $(emf)$ $0.1 \, V$ less than the first one,the balancing length is $0.55 \, m$. What are the $emf$ values of the two cells?

Two cells of emf $E_1$ and $E_2$ $(E_1 > E_2)$ are connected individually to a potentiometer and their corresponding balancing lengths are $625 \, cm$ and $500 \, cm$. Then the ratio $\frac{E_1}{E_2}$ is ...........
