A potentiometer wire of length $10 \,m$ and resistance$20 \,\Omega$ is connected in series with a $25 \,V$ battery and an external resistance $30\, \Omega$. A cell of emf $E$ in secondary circuit is balanced by $250\, cm$ long potentiometer wire. The value of $E$ (in volt) is $\frac{x}{10}$. The value of $x$ is.......
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 $E_1$.
What amount of heat will be generated in a coil of resistance $R$ due to a charge $q$ passing through it if the current in the coil decreases to zero uniformly during a time interval $\Delta t$
The length of a given cylindrical wire is increased by $100 \%$. Due to the consequent decrease in diameter the change in the resistance of the wire will be .................. $\%$
$A$ uniform copper wire carries a current $i$ amperes and has $p$ carriers per meter$^3$. The length of the wire is $\lambda$ meters and its cross-section area is $s$ meter $^2$. If the charge on a carrier is $q$ coulombs, the drift velocity in $ms^{-1}$ is given by
