A potentiometer is an accurate and versatile device to make electrical measurements of E.M.F. because the method involves:

1. the potential gradients.
2. a condition of no current flow through the galvanometer.
3. a condition of cells, galvanometer, and resistances.
4. the cells.

The figure shows a circuit that contains three identical resistors with resistance \(R = 9.0~\Omega\) each, two identical inductors with inductance \(L = 2.0~\text{mH}\) each, and an ideal battery with emf \(\varepsilon = 18~\text{V}\). The current \('i'\) through the battery just after the switch is closed will be:
  
1. \(0.2~\text{A}\)
2. \(2~\text{A}\)
3. \(4~\text{A}\)
4. \(2~\text{mA}\)

A potentiometer wire is 100 cm long and a constant potential difference is maintained across it. Two cells are connected in series first to support one another and then in opposite directions. 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 the emf of the two cells is:
1. 5 : 4
2. 3 : 4
3. 3 : 2
4. 5 : 1

A potentiometer wire of length \(L\) and a resistance \(r\) are connected in series with a battery of EMF \(E_{0 }\) and resistance \(r_{1}\). An unknown EMF is balanced at a length l of the potentiometer wire. The EMF \(E\) will be given by:
1. \(\frac{L E_{0} r}{l r_{1}}\)
2. \(\frac{E_{0} r}{\left(\right. r + r_{1} \left.\right)} \cdot \frac{l}{L}\)
3. \(\frac{E_{0} l}{L}\)
4. \(\frac{L E_{0} r}{\left(\right. r + r_{1} \left.\right) l}\)

\(\mathrm{A, B}~\text{and}~\mathrm{C}\) are voltmeters of resistance \(R\), \(1.5R\) and \(3R\) respectively as shown in the figure above. When some potential difference is applied between \(\mathrm{X}\) and \(\mathrm{Y}\), the voltmeter readings are \({V}_\mathrm{A}\), \({V}_\mathrm{B}\) and \({V}_\mathrm{C}\) respectively. Then:

       

1. \({V}_\mathrm{A} ={V}_\mathrm{B}={V}_\mathrm{C}\) 2. \({V}_\mathrm{A} \neq{V}_\text{B}={V}_\mathrm{C}\)
