Questions  

In a potentiometer experiment, the balancing length with a cell is 560cm . When an external resistance of 10Ω  is connected in parallel to the cell, the balancing length changes to 412cm  . the internal resistance of the cell in ohm  is

a
3.6
b
2.4
c
1.2
d
0.6

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Balancing length l1=560 cm Balancing length l2=412 cm Resistance R=10 Ω Internal resistance r=?    r=(l1−l2l2)R       =560−412412×10       =3.59Ω ∴  r=3.6 Ω
