MCQ
A potentiometer wire is $100 cm$ long and a constant potential difference is maintained across it. Two cells are connected in series, first to support one another and then in opposite direction. The balance points are obtained at $50 cm$ and $10 cm$ from the positive end of the wire in the two cases. The ratio of emfs is
  • A
    $5: 4$
  • B
    $3: 4$
  • $3: 2$
  • D
    $5: 1$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$3: 2$
$3: 2$
