$A$ potentiometer is connected between $A$ and $B$ and the balance point is obtained at $203.6 \, cm$. When the end of the potentiometer connected to $B$ is shifted to $C$,then the balance point is obtained at $24.6 \, cm$. If now the potentiometer be connected between $B$ and $C$,the balance point will be at ................. $cm$.

To compare the $EMF$ of two cells using a potentiometer, the balancing lengths obtained are $200 \ cm$ and $150 \ cm$. The least count of the scale is $1 \ cm$. The percentage error in the ratio of the EMFs is . . . . . . .

$A$ 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 .......... $V$.

It is preferable to measure the $e.m.f.$ of a cell by a potentiometer rather than by a voltmeter because of the following possible reasons.
$(i)$ In the case of a potentiometer,no current flows through the cell.
$(ii)$ The length of the potentiometer wire allows for greater precision.
$(iii)$ Measurement by the potentiometer is quicker.
$(iv)$ The sensitivity of the galvanometer,when using a potentiometer,is not relevant.
Which of these reasons are correct?

In the potentiometer experiment shown in the figure,for the position $X$ of the jockey $J$,there occurs a null deflection in the galvanometer. Then the potential difference between points $A$ and $X$ is ................ $V$.

In a potentiometer,a balance point is obtained when:
