In a potentiometer arrangement,a cell gives a balancing point at $75 \, cm$ length of wire. This cell is now replaced by another cell of unknown emf. If the ratio of the emf's of two cells respectively is $3:2$,the difference in the balancing length of the potentiometer wire in above two cases will be ......... $cm$.

In a potentiometer experiment,the null point is obtained on the $7^{\text{th}}$ wire for a given cell. To shift the null point to the $9^{\text{th}}$ wire for the same cell,what should we do?

$A$ thermocouple of negligible resistance produces an $e.m.f.$ of $40\,\mu V/^{\circ}C$ in the linear range of temperature. $A$ galvanometer of resistance $10\,\Omega$ whose sensitivity is $1\,\mu A/\text{div}$ is employed with the thermocouple. The smallest value of temperature difference that can be detected by the system will be (in $^{\circ}C$)

In a potentiometer experiment,a wire of length $10 \ m$ and resistance $5 \ \Omega$ is connected to a cell of emf $2.2 \ V$. If the potential difference between two points separated by a distance of $660 \ cm$ on the potentiometer wire is $1.1 \ V$,then the internal resistance of the cell is: (in $Omega$)

In a potentiometer experiment, the balancing length with a cell is $250 \, cm$. On shunting the cell with a resistance of $2 \, \Omega$, the balancing length becomes $125 \, cm$. The internal resistance of the cell is:
