In potentiometer a balance point is obtained, when
AThe $e.m.f.$ of the battery becomes equal to the $e.m.f.$ of the experimental cell
BThe $p.d.$ of the wire between the $+ve$ end to jockey becomes equal to the $e.m.f.$ of the experimental cell
CThe $p.d.$ of the wire between $+ve$ point and jockey becomes equal to the $e.m.f.$ of the battery
DThe $p.d.$ across the potentiometer wire becomes equal to the $e.m.f.$ of the battery

BThe $p.d.$ of the wire between the $+ve$ end to jockey becomes equal to the $e.m.f.$ of the experimental cell
b (b) In general, if the arrangement is not balanced, there will be a potential difference across the galvanometer, $G.$ This will only be zero means balance when the $p.d.$ of the wire between the $+ve$ end of battery to jockey becomes equal to the $e.m.f.$ of the experimental cell.

Two wires that are made up of two different materials whose specific resistance are in the ratio $2 : 3$, length $3 : 4$ and area $4 : 5$. The ratio of their resistances is
A Daniel cell is balanced on $125\,cm$ length of a potentiometer wire. Now the cell is short-circuited by a resistance $2\, ohm$ and the balance is obtained at $100\,cm$. The internal resistance of the Daniel cell is .............. $ohm$
For the arrangement of the potentiometer shown in the figure, the balance point is obtained at $a$ distance $75\,cm $ from $A$ when the key $k$ is open. The second balance point is obtained at $60\, cm$ from $A$ when the key $k$ is closed. Find the internal resistance (in $ \Omega$) of the battery $E_1$.
To find the resistance of a galvanometer by the half deflection method the following circuit is used with resistances $R_1 = 9970\,\Omega,$ $R_2 = 30\,\Omega$ and $R_3 = 0\,\Omega.$ The deflection in the galvanometer is $d$. With $R_3 = 107\,\Omega$ the deflection changed to $\frac {d}{2}$The galvanometer resistance is approximately ............... $\Omega$
The galvanometer deflection, when key $K_1$ is closed but $K_2$ is open, equals $\theta_0$ (see figure). On closing $K_2$ also and adjusting $R_2$ to $5\,\Omega $ , the deflection in galvanometer becomes $\frac{{\theta _0}}{5}$. The resistance of the galvanometer is, then, given by [Neglect the internal resistance of battery]: .................. $\Omega$
If a wire of resistance $20\,\Omega $ is covered with ice and a voltage of $210\, V$ is applied across the wire, then the rate of melting of ice is .................. $g/s$
If $400\; \Omega$ of resistance is made by adding four $100\; \Omega$ resistance of tolerance $5 \%$ then the tolerance of the combination is .....$\%$
