Questions  

The potentiometer consists of a wire of length 4m and resistance 10Ω. It is connected to a cell of emf 2V, the potential difference per unit length of the wire will be :

a
10 V/m
b
5 V/m
c
2 V/m
d
0.5 V/m

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Resistance R=10 Ω Length l=4 m emf of a cell E=2V i=ER=210=0.2 A Therefore, potential difference per unit length of the wire is given by=iRl=0.2×104=0.5 V/m
