Question
Pick out the application of potentiometer from the following.
✓
Answer
- It measures internal resistance.
Potentiometer is an electric instrument used to measure internal resistance, electromotive force (emf), and it is also used for comparing the emfs of different cells. Potentiometer can be used as a variable resistor as well.
