In a potentiometer arrangement, a cell of emf 1.25 V gives a balance point at 35.0 cm length of the wire. If the cell is replaced by another cell and the balance point shifts to 63.0 cm, what is the emf of the second cell?
In a potentiometer experiment, a cell of emf 1.25 V gives a balance point at 35 cm mark of the wire. If this cell is replaced by another cell, the balance point is at 63 cm mark. Calculate the emf of the second cell.

उत्तर
Emf of the cell, E1 = 1.25 V
Balance point of the potentiometer, l1 = 35 cm
The cell is replaced by another cell of emf E2.
New balance point of the potentiometer, l2 = 63 cm
The balance condition is given by the relation,
`E_1/E_2 = I_1/I_2`
`E_2 = E_1 xx I_2/I_1`
= `1.25 xx 63/35`
= 2.25 V
Therefore, the emf of the second cell is 2.25 V.

Two identical cells of emf 1.5 V each joined in parallel, supply energy to an external circuit consisting of two resistances of 7 Ω each joined in parallel. A very high resistance voltmeter reads the terminal voltage of cells to be 1.4 V. Calculate the internal resistance of each cell.
A battery of emf 10 V and internal resistance 3 Ω is connected to a resistor. If the current in the circuit is 0.5 A, what is the resistance of the resistor? What is the terminal voltage of the battery when the circuit is closed?
The earth’s surface has a negative surface charge density of 10−9 C m−2. The potential difference of 400 kV between the top of the atmosphere and the surface results (due to the low conductivity of the lower atmosphere) in a current of only 1800 A over the entire globe. If there were no mechanism of sustaining atmospheric electric field, how much time (roughly) would be required to neutralise the earth’s surface? (This never happens in practice because there is a mechanism to replenish electric charges, namely the continual thunderstorms and lightning in different parts of the globe). (Radius of earth = 6.37 × 106 m.)
