Across a metallic conductor of non-uniform cross section a constant potential difference is applied. The quantity which remains constant along the conductor is
A cell can be balanced against $110\,\, cm$ and $100\,\, cm$ of potentiometer wire, respectively with and without being short circuited through a resistance of $10 \,\,\Omega$. Its internal resistance is ............... $\Omega$
the given potentiometer has its wire of resistance $10\, \Omega$. When the sliding contact is in the middle of the potentiometer wire, the potential drop across $2\, \Omega$ resistor is -
The internal resistance of a primary cell is $4\, ohm$. It generates a current of $0.2\, amp$ in an external resistance of $21\, ohm$. The rate at which chemical energy is consumed in providing the current is .............. $J/s$
In a potentiometer experiment the balancing with a cell is at length $240\,cm$ . On shunting the cell with a resistance of $2\,\Omega $ , the balancing length becomes $120\, cm$ . The internal resistance of the cell is ................... $\Omega$
Two cells of $e.m.f.$ $s\, E_1$ and $E_2$ and of negligible internal resistances are connected with two variable resistors as shown in Fig. When the galvanometer shows no deflection, the values of the resistances are $P$ and $Q$. What is the value of the ratio $E_2/E_1$ ?
A potentiometer has uniform potential gradient. The specific resistance of the material of the potentiometer wire is $10^{-7} \, ohm-meter$ and the current passing through it is $0.1\, ampere$; cross-section of the wire is $10^{-6}\, m^2$. The potential gradient along the potentiometer wire is
