A potentiometer circuit has been set up for finding the internal resistance of a given cell. The main battery, used across the potentiometer wire, has an emf of \(2.0~\text{V}\) and negligible internal resistance. The potentiometer wire itself is \(4~\text{m}\) long. When the resistance, \(R\), connected across the given cell, has values of (i) infinity (ii) \(9.5\), the 'balancing lengths, on the potentiometer wire, are found to be \(3~\text{m}\) and \(2.85~\text{m}\), respectively. The value of the internal resistance of the cell is (in ohm):
1. \(0.25\)
2. \(0.95\)
3. \(0.5\)
4. \(0.75\)

Two identical long conducting wires \(({AOB})\) and \(({COD})\) are placed at a right angle to each other, with one above the other such that '\(O\)' is the common point for the two. The wires carry \(I_1\) and \(I_2\) currents, respectively. The point '\(P\)' is lying at a distance '\(d\)' from '\(O\)' along a direction perpendicular to the plane containing the wires. What will be the magnetic field at the point \(P?\)

1. \(\dfrac{\mu_0}{2\pi d}\left(\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}\right )\) 2. \(\dfrac{\mu_0}{2\pi d}\left[I_1+I_2\right ]\)
