Resistance of a potentiometer wire is 2 / m . A cell of e.m.f. 1.5 ~V balances at 300 ~cm . The current through the wire is
Options
- A2.5 ~mA
- B7.5 ~mA
- C250 ~mA
- D750 ~mA
Correct answer
C. 250 ~mA
Step-by-step solution
l=300 ~cm =3 ~m Total resistance of wire, R =3 2=6 Since, the potentiometer is balanced. Voltage across wire segment =1.5 ~V array ll & IR =1.5 ~V & I = 1.5 6 =250 ~mA array
