In a potentiometer experiment,the galvanometer shows no deflection when a cell is connected across $60 \ cm$ of the potentiometer wire. If the cell is shunted by a resistance of $6 \ \Omega$,the balance is obtained across $50 \ cm$ of the wire. The internal resistance of the cell is .............. $\Omega$.

$A$ potentiometer wire of length $1\,m$ and resistance $10\,\Omega$ is connected in series with a cell of $emf$ $2\,V$ with internal resistance $1\,\Omega$ and a resistance box including a resistance $R$. If the potential difference between the ends of the wire is $1\,mV$,the value of $R$ is ............. $\Omega$.

The given potentiometer has its wire of resistance $10\, \Omega$. When the sliding contact is in the middle of the potentiometer wire,the potential drop across the $2\, \Omega$ resistor is -

$A$ galvanometer can be used as a voltmeter by connecting a

$A$ potentiometer wire of length $100 \, cm$ has a resistance of $10 \, \Omega$. It is connected in series with a resistance $R$ and a cell of $emf$ $2 \, V$ and of negligible internal resistance. $A$ source of $emf$ $10 \, mV$ is balanced against a length of $40 \, cm$ of the potentiometer wire. What is the value of external resistance $R$?

With the help of a potentiometer,we can determine the value of the emf of a given cell. The sensitivity of the potentiometer is:
$(A)$ directly proportional to the length of the potentiometer wire
$(B)$ directly proportional to the potential gradient of the wire
$(C)$ inversely proportional to the potential gradient of the wire
$(D)$ inversely proportional to the length of the potentiometer wire
