C$44$
c As volume is constant,
So resistance $\propto$ (length $)^2$
$\Rightarrow \% \text { change in resistance }=20+20+\frac{400}{100}=44 \%$

A null point is found at $200\,cm$ in potentiometer when cell in secondary circuit is shunted by $5\,\Omega$. When a resistance of $15\,\Omega$ is used for shunting null point moves to $300\,cm$. The internal resistance of the cell is $..............\,\Omega$.
Masses of three wires of copper are in the ratio of $1 : 3 : 5$ and their lengths are in the ratio of $5:3:1.$ The ratio of their electrical resistances are
A storage battery has $e.m.f.$ $15\, volts$ and internal resistance $0.05\, ohm$. Its terminal voltage when it is delivering $10\, ampere$ is ............... $volts$
Circuit for the measurement of resistance by potentiometer is shown. The galvanometer is first connected at point $A$ and zero deflection is observed at length $P J = 10\ cm$ . In second case it is connected at point $C$ and zero deflection is observed at a length $30\ cm$ from $P$ . Then the unknown resistance $X$ is
A potentiometer wire, $10\,m$ long, has a resistance of $40\,\Omega $. It is connected in series with a resistance box and a $2\,V$ storage cell. If the potential gradient along the wire is $0.1\,m\,V/cm$, the resistance unplugged in the box is .............. $\Omega$
