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.

A current of two amperes is flowing through a cell of $e.m.f.$ $5\, volts$ and internal resistance $0.5\, ohm$ from negative to positive electrode. If the potential of negative electrode is $10\,V$, the potential of positive electrode will be .............. $V$
The resistance of a conductor at $15^{\circ} {C}$ is $16\, \Omega$ and at $100\, {C}$ is $20\, \Omega$. What will be the temperature coefficient of resistance of the conductor?
A $d.c.$ main supply of $e.m.f.\, 220\, V$ is connected across a storage battery of $e.m.f.\, 200\, V$ through a resistance of $1\,\Omega $. The battery terminals are connected to an external resistance $'R'$ . The minimum value of $'R'$, so that a current passes through the battery to charge it is ............... $\Omega$
Two batteries with e.m.f $12\ V$ and $13\ V$ are connected in parallel across a load resistor of $10\,\Omega$ . The internal resistances of the two batteries are $1\,\Omega$ and $2\,\Omega$ respectively. The voltage across the load lies between
A $1\,m$ long wire is broken into two unequal parts $X$ and $Y$ The $X$ part of the wire is streched into another wire $W$. Length of $W$ is twice the length of $X$ and the resistance of $W$ is twice that of $Y$. Find the ratio of length of $X$ and $Y$.
