Question

In a potentiometer experiment, it is found that no current passes through the galvanometer when the terminals of the cell are connected across 0.52 m of the potentiometer wire. If the cell is shunted by a resistance of 5Ω, balance is obtained when the cell is connected across 0.4 m of the
wire. Find the internal resistance of the cell.

Moderate
Solution

r=Rl1l21=5  0.520.41  =  51.31=  1.5  Ω
