    In the given circuit of potentiometer, the potential difference $E$ across $AB$ ( $10\, m$ length) is larger than $E _{1}$ and $E _{2}$ as well. For key $K _{1}$ (closed), the jockey is adjusted to touch the wire at point $J_{1}$ so that there is no deflection in the galvanometer. Now the first battery $\left( E _{1}\right)$ is replaced by second battery $\left( E _{2}\right)$ for working by making $K _{1}$ open and $K _{2}$ closed. The galvanometer gives then null deflection at $J _{2}$. The value of $\frac{ E _{1}}{ E _{2}}$ is $\frac{ a }{ b },$ where $a =$ ...............

    Consider an electrical circuit containing a two way switch $^{\prime}{S}^{\prime}$. Initially ${S}$ is open and then ${T}_{1}$ is connected to ${T}_{2} .$ As the current in ${R}=6 \,\Omega$ attains a maximum value of steady state level, ${T}_{1}$ is disconnected from ${T}_{2}$ and immediately connected to ${T}_{3} .$ Potential drop across ${r}=3\, \Omega$ resistor immediately after $T_{1}$ is connected to $T_{3}$ is $....\,V.$ (Round off to the Nearest Integer)
