When a Daniel cell is connected in the secondary circuit of a potentiometer, the balancing length is found to be 540 cm . If the balancing length becomes 500 cm when the cell is short-circuited with 1 Ω , the internal resistance of the cell (in Ω ) is
Correct answer
0.08
Step-by-step solution
Internal resistance, r = R l 1 - l 2 l 2 = 1 540 - 500 500 = 40 500 = 0.08 Ω
