The length of a wire of a potentiometer is $100 \, cm$,and the $emf$ of its standard cell is $E \, volt$. It is employed to measure the $emf$ of a battery whose internal resistance is $0.5 \, \Omega$. If the balance point is obtained at $l = 30 \, cm$ from the positive end,the $emf$ of the battery is (where $i$ is the current in the potentiometer wire).

To compare the $EMF$ of two cells using a potentiometer,the balancing lengths obtained are $200 \ cm$ and $150 \ cm$. The least count of the scale is $1 \ cm$. The percentage error in the ratio of the EMFs is . . . . . . .

$A$ wire of length $10 \ m$ and resistance $30 \ \Omega$ is connected to a battery of $emf$ $2.5 \ V$ and internal resistance $5 \ \Omega$ through an external resistance $R$. If the potential gradient along the wire is $50 \ \mu V/mm$,then $R = $ ................. $\Omega$.

In a potentiometer experiment,the balancing point with a cell is at a length $240 \ cm$. On shunting the cell with a resistance of $2 \ \Omega$,the balancing length becomes $120 \ cm$. The internal resistance of the cell is: (in $Omega$)

$A$ potentiometer wire of length $100 \ cm$ and resistance $3 \ \Omega$ is connected in series with a resistance of $8 \ \Omega$ and an accumulator of $4 \ V$ whose internal resistance is $1 \ \Omega$. $A$ cell of e.m.f. $E$ is balanced by $50 \ cm$ length of the wire.
