प्रश्न
AB is a potentiometer wire (Figure). If the value of R is increased, in which direction will the balance point J shift?
Advertisements
उत्तर
If R is increased, the current through the wire will decrease and hence the potential gradient will also decrease, which will result in increase in balance length. So J will shift towards B.
