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 ......... $cm$.

$A$ potentiometer is an accurate and versatile device to make electrical measurements of $EMF$ because the method involves:

The area of cross-section of a potentiometer wire is $6 \times 10^{-7} \ m^2$. The potential difference per unit length of the potentiometer wire when it is connected to a cell of negligible internal resistance and a resistor in series is $0.15 \ Vm^{-1}$. If the current through the potentiometer wire is $0.3 \ A$,then the resistivity of the material of the potentiometer wire is:

$A$ wire of length $10 \ cm$ is connected to a cell of $emf$ $2 \ V$ and negligible internal resistance. The resistance of the wire is $3 \ \Omega$. The value of the resistance required to obtain a potential gradient of $1 \ mV/cm$ is ................ $\Omega$.

Let $A$ be the cross-sectional area and $\rho$ be the specific resistance (resistivity) of a potentiometer wire. If $I$ is the current passing through the wire,then the potential gradient along the length of the wire is
