22. Figure below shows a uniform manganin wire XY of length 100 cm and resistance 9 Ω, connected to an accumulator D of emf 4 V and internal resistance 1 Ω through a variable resistance R. E is sa cell of emf 1.8 V connected to the wire XY via a jockey J and a central zero galvanometer G. It is found that the galvanometer shows no deflection when XJ = 80 cm. Find the value of R.



Given,

Length of the wire XY = 100 cm = 1 m

Resistance of the wire = 9 Ω

Resistance of the Primary circuit is, 

                  = 9+ l + R=10 + R

Now,   

 E = Kl = 0.8 m

Here  l = 80 cm and

       E = 1.8 V

 

Therefore, 

Potential gradient, K = E/l = 1.8 / 0.8 = 9/4 

Current in wire XY, I = 

P.d across XY, vxy = I x R =  

Potential gradient along XY, k is,
