Questions  

In a potentiometer experiment, the balancing length with a cell is 560cm .When an external resistance of 10 ohms is connected in parallel to the cell  the balancing length changes by 60cm .The internal resistance of the cell in ohms is :

 

a
3.6
b
2.4
c
1.2
d
0.6

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Balancing length l1=560 cm Balancing length l2=60 cm Resistance R=10 Ω Internal resistance r=? r=(l1−l2l2)R    =(560−500500)10 ∴r=1.2 Ω
