उत्तर

Given data:

l = 4m of R = 20Ω

In series with R’ = 2980Ω

E = 4 V

Since 20 is in series with 2980

Reff = 20 + 2980 = 3000

current I = `"V"/"R"_"eff" = 4/3000 = 1.3 xx 10^-3 "A"`

I = `1.3 xx 10^-3`A

Potential along the wire of 4 m length is,

`"V"/"l" - "IR"/"l" = (1.3 xx 10^-3 xx 20)/4`

`= (26 xx 10^-3)/4`

= 6.5 × 10-3 Vm-1

`"V"/"l" = 6.5 xx 10^-2 "Vm"^-1`

Potential = `0.65 xx 10^-2 "Vm"^-1`
