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.......

$I =\frac{25}{50}=\frac{1}{2} \,A$

$\therefore \Delta\, V =10 \,V$

$10 \,m \rightarrow 10 \,V$

$2.5\, m \rightarrow 2.5\, V$

    Assertion : All electric devices shown in the circuit are ideal. The reading of each of ammeter $(a)$ and voltmeter $(V)$ is zero.

    Reason : An ideal voltmeter draws almost no current due to very large resistance, and hence $(V)$ and $(a)$ will read zero.
