In a potentiometer experiment, a cell of emf $1.25 \,V$ gives a balancing length of $30 \,cm$. If the cell is replaced by another cell, the balancing length is found to be $40 \,cm$. What is the emf of the second cell?

Two cells of e.m.f.s $E_1$ and $E_2$ $(E_1 > E_2)$ are connected as shown in the figure. When the potentiometer is connected between $A$ and $B$,the balancing length of the potentiometer wire is $3.60 \ m$. On connecting the potentiometer between $A$ and $C$,the balancing length is $0.90 \ m$. The ratio $E_1 / E_2$ is

In the circuit shown, a four-wire potentiometer is made of a $400\, cm$ long wire, which extends between $A$ and $B$. The resistance per unit length of the potentiometer wire is $r = 0.01\, \Omega /cm$. If an ideal voltmeter is connected as shown with jockey $J$ at $50\, cm$ from end $A$, the expected reading of the voltmeter will be: ............... $V$

If the length of a potentiometer wire is increased,then the length of the previously obtained balance point will

In a potentiometer experiment,a cell is balanced at a length of $240 \ cm$. When the cell is shunted with a resistance of $2 \ \Omega$,it is balanced at a length of $120 \ cm$. The internal resistance of the cell is .......... $\Omega$.

For the measurement of potential difference,a potentiometer is preferred in comparison to a voltmeter because
