The given figure represents an arrangement of a potentiometer for the calculation of the internal resistance $(r)$ of an unknown battery $(E)$. The balance length is $70.0 \, cm$ with the key open and $60.0 \, cm$ with the key closed. $R$ is $132.40 \, \Omega$. The internal resistance $(r)$ of the unknown cell will be ....... $\Omega$ (Given $E_o > E$):-

In an experiment of a potentiometer for measuring the internal resistance of a primary cell,a balancing length $\ell$ is obtained on the potentiometer wire when the cell is in an open circuit. Now,the cell is short-circuited by a resistance $R$. If $R$ is equal to the internal resistance of the cell,the balancing length on the potentiometer wire will be:

In the figure,the potentiometer wire of length $l = 100 \, cm$ and resistance $R = 9 \, \Omega$ is joined to a cell of emf $E_1 = 10 \, V$ and internal resistance $r_1 = 1 \, \Omega$. Another cell of emf $E_2 = 5 \, V$ and internal resistance $r_2 = 2 \, \Omega$ is connected as shown. The galvanometer $G$ will show no deflection when the length $AC$ is ............... $cm$.

Explain the method to measure the internal resistance of a cell using a potentiometer.

When a cell of e.m.f. $E_1$ is connected to a potentiometer wire,the balancing length is $\ell_1$. Another cell of e.m.f. $E_2$ $(E_1 > E_2)$ is connected such that the two cells oppose each other,and the balancing length is $\ell_2$. The ratio $E_1 : E_2$ is:
