उत्तर
According to Ohm’s law, the relation for the potential is V = IR
Voltage (V) is directly proportional to the current (I).
R is the internal resistance of the source.
I = `V/R`
If V is low, then R must be very low, so that a high current can be drawn from the source.

The circuit depicted in the figure is employed for studying Ohm’s Law. Instead of using a standard resistor, a student opts for a glass tube filled with mercury (tube 1), connected to the circuit through two electrodes, E1 and E2. He records the readings of the ammeter and voltmeter, thereby calculating the resistance. The student repeats the experiment by substituting tube 1 with tube 2, where the same amount of mercury fills tube 2.
Neglecting internal resistance of the cell use (> or < or =) to compare:
- the resistance in both the cases.
- the voltmeter readings in both the cases.
- the specific resistance in both the cases.
