In a potentiometer experiment two cells of $e.m.f.$ $E_1$ and $E_2$ are used in series and in conjunction and the balancing length is found to be $58\, cm$ of the wire. If the polarity of $E_2$ is reversed, then the balancing length becomes $29\, cm$. The ratio $\frac{{{E_1}}}{{{E_2}}}$ of the $e.m.f.$ of the two cells is
In the box shown current $i$ enters at $H$ and leaves at $C$. If $i_{AB} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{6}$ , $i_{DC} = \frac{{\text{2i}}}{3}$ ,$i_{HA} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{2} , i_{GF} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{6} , i_{HE} = \frac{{\text{i}}}{6}$ , choose the branch in which current is zero
The temperature coefficient of resistance of tungsten is $4.5 \times 10^{-3}{ }^{\circ} C ^{-1}$ and that of germanium is $-5 \times 10^{-2}{ }^{\circ} C ^{-1}$. A tungsten wire of resistance $100 \,\Omega$ is connected in series with a germanium wire of resistance $R$. The value of $R$ for which the resistance of combination does not change with temperature is .......... $\Omega$
A uniform metallic wire carries a current $2\,A$. when $3.4\,V$ battery is connected across it. The mass of uniform metallic wire is $8.92 \times 10^{-3} \,kg$. density is $8.92 \times 10^3\,kg / m ^3$ and resistivity is $1.7 \times 10^{-8} \Omega- m$. The length of wire is $l=............\,m$
A storage battery has $e.m.f.$ $15\, volts$ and internal resistance $0.05\, ohm$. Its terminal voltage when it is delivering $10\, ampere$ is ............... $volts$
Two cells are connected in opposition as shown. Cell $\mathrm{E}_1$ is of $8 \mathrm{~V}$ emf and $2 \ \Omega$ internal resistance; the cell $E_2$ is of $2 \mathrm{~V}$ emf and $4\ \Omega$ internal resistance. The terminal potential difference of cell $\mathrm{E}_2$ is:
