A 10 m long uniform metallic wire having a resistance 20 ohm is used as a potentiometer wire. This wire is connected in series with another resistance of 480 ohm and a battery of emf 5 V having negligible internal resistance.If an unknown emf e is balanced across 6 m of the potentiometer wire, calculate:

i) the potential gradient across the potentiometer wire.
ii) the value of the unknown emf e.


Given,

Length of wire, l = 10 m

Resistance, R = 20 ohm

EMF of battery = 5 V

i) IP = fraction numerator straight E over denominator straight R subscript straight S space plus space straight R subscript straight P space plus straight r end fraction = fraction numerator 5 over denominator 480 plus 20 end fraction space equals space 0.01 space A
Potential gradient, k = straight V subscript straight P over straight L
                           = fraction numerator straight I subscript straight P straight R subscript straight P over denominator straight L end fraction
                           = fraction numerator italic 0 italic. italic 1 italic cross times italic 20 over denominator italic 10 end fraction italic equals fraction numerator italic 0 italic. italic 2 over denominator italic 10 end fraction italic equals italic 0 italic times italic 02 V italic divided by m

ii) Unknown emf, e = K cross times L equals 0.02 cross times 6 = 0.12 V
