Question

In comparing e.m.f.s of 2 cells with the help of potentiometer, at the balance point, the current flowing through the wire is taken from:
  1. 3) Battery in the main circuit
  2. 2) both of these cells
  3. 1) Any one of these cells
  4. 4) From an unknown source

A
1) Any one of these cells
B
3) Battery in the main circuit
C
4) From an unknown source
D
2) both of these cells
Solution
Verified by Toppr

emf of secondary cell =I r l
where
I - current in the main circuit from battery.
r - resistance per unit length of wire.
l - balancing length.
