Balanced wheat stone bridge in circuit so there is no current in $5\,\Omega$ resistor so it can be removed from the circuit.

$R _{eq }=\frac{6 \times 12}{6+12}+2$

$=\frac{6 \times 12}{18}+2$

$R _{e q }=6\,\Omega$

$I =\frac{ V }{ R _{a q }}=\frac{6}{6}=1\,Amp$

    It is preferable to measure the $e.m.f.$ of a cell by potentiometer than by a voltmeter because of the following possible reasons.
    $(i)$ In case of potentiometer, no current flows through the cell.
    $(ii)$ The length of the potentiometer allows 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?

    An insulating pipe of cross-section area $'A'$ contains an electrolyte which has two types of ions $\rightarrow$ their charges being $-e$ and $+2e$. $A$ potential difference applied between the ends of the pipe result in the drifting of the two types of ions, having drift speed $= v$ ($-ve$ ion) and $v/4$ ($+ve$ ion). Both ions have the same number per unit volume $= n$. The current flowing through the pipe is
