$A$ potentiometer wire of length $300\,cm$ is connected in series with a resistance $780\,\Omega$ and a standard cell of emf $4\,V$. $A$ constant current flows through the potentiometer wire. The length of the null point for a cell of emf $20\,mV$ is found to be $60\,cm$. The resistance of the potentiometer wire is ... $\Omega$.

In the given circuit of a potentiometer,the potential difference $E$ across $AB$ ($10\, m$ length) is larger than $E_{1}$ and $E_{2}$ as well. For key $K_{1}$ (closed),the jockey is adjusted to touch the wire at point $J_{1}$ so that there is no deflection in the galvanometer. Now,the first battery $(E_{1})$ is replaced by the second battery $(E_{2})$ for working by making $K_{1}$ open and $K_{2}$ closed. The galvanometer then gives null deflection at $J_{2}$. The value of $\frac{E_{1}}{E_{2}}$ is $\frac{a}{b}$,where $a = \dots$ (Refer to the image for balancing lengths $l_{1}$ and $l_{2}$ from point $A$).

Two cells $A$ and $B$ are connected in the secondary circuit of a potentiometer one at a time,and the balancing lengths are $400 \ cm$ and $440 \ cm$ respectively. The emf of cell $A$ is $1.08 \ V$. The emf of the second cell $B$ in volts is:

In a potentiometer experiment, the null point is obtained at a particular point for a cell on a potentiometer wire of length $L$. If the length of the potentiometer wire is increased without changing the cell or the driving source, the balancing length will:
