Eels are able to generate current with biological cells called electroplaques. The electroplaques in an eel are arranged in \(100\) rows, each row stretching horizontally along the body of the fish containing \(5000\) electroplaques. The arrangement is suggestively shown below. Each electroplaques has an emf of \(0.15\) V and internal resistance of \(0.25~\Omega\).

The water surrounding the eel completes a circuit between the head and its tail. If the water surrounding it has a resistance of \(500~\Omega\), the current an eel can produce in water is about:

1. \(1.5\) A 2. \(3.0\) A
3. \(15\) A 4. \(30\) A

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

(1) cells

(2) potential gradients 

(3) a condition of no current flow through the galvanometer 

(4) a combination of cells, galvanometer, and resistances

A potentiometer wire is 100 cm long and a constant potential is maintained across it. Two cells are connected in series first to support one another and then in the opposite direction. The balance points are obtained at 50 cm and 10 cm from the positive end of the wire in the two cases. The ratio of emf is

1. 5:4              2. 3:4

3. 3:2              4. 5:1
