For the potentiometer circuit shown in the given figure, points X and Y represent the two terminals of an unknown emf E'. A student observed that when the jockey is moved from the end A to the end B of the potentiometer wire, the deflection in the galvanometer remains in the same direction.
What may be the two possible faults in the circuit that could result in this observation? If the galvanometer deflection at the end B is (i) more, (ii) less than at the end A, which of the two faults, listed above, would be there in the circuit? Give reason in support of your answer in each case.

A heating element using nichrome connected to a 230 V supply draws an initial current of 3.2 A which settles after a few seconds to a steady value of 2.8 A. What is the steady temperature of the heating element if the room temperature is 27${ }^{\circ} C$ ? Temperature coefficient of resistance of nichrome averaged over the temperature range involved is $1.70 \times 10^{-4}{ }^{\circ} C ^{-1}$.
