Questions  

The length of potentiometer wire is 200 cm and the emf of standard cell in primary circuit is Evolts. It is employed to a battery of emf 0.4 v the balance point is obtained at l=40cm from positive end, the E of the battery is (cell in primary is ideal and series resistance is zero)

a
4v
b
2v
c
5v
d
7v

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Length of potentiometer L=200 cm Battery of emf E1=0.4 V Balancing length l=40 cm E1=ERPRP+RSlL ⇒E=E1Ll           =0.4×20040         ∴  E=2v
