Question

What will be the effect on the position of zero deflection if only the current flowing through the potentiometer wire is decreased?

Short/Brief Note

Solution

The potential gradient along the wire will decrease as the current through the potentiometer wire is reduced. Hence, the position of zero deflection will occur at a longer length.

`"E"_1 = ("IR"/"L")"l"_1` = constant.
