In an experiment to find the $emf$ of a cell using a potentiometer,the length of the null point for a cell of $emf$ $1.5 \ V$ is found to be $60 \ cm$. If this cell is replaced by another cell of $emf$ $E$,the length of the null point increases by $40 \ cm$. The value of $E$ is $\frac{x}{10} \ V$. The value of $x$ is $............$

$A$ potentiometer wire has a length of $5 \, m$ and a resistance of $5 \, \Omega$. If the null point is obtained at $300 \, cm$,what is the $emf$ $E$ of the cells (connected in parallel) in $V$?

$A$ potentiometer wire has length $4\, m$ and resistance $8\, \Omega$. The resistance that must be connected in series with the wire and an accumulator of e.m.f. $2\, V$,so as to get a potential gradient of $1\, mV$ per $cm$ on the wire is ............. $\Omega$.

$A$ potentiometer wire has length $L$. For a given cell of emf $E$,the balancing length is $\frac{L}{3}$ from the positive end of the wire. If the length of the potentiometer wire is increased by $50 \%$,then for the same cell,the balance point is obtained at length
