    In a potentiometer experiment the galvanometer shows no deflection when a cell is connected across 60 cm of potentiometer wire. If the cell is shunted by a resistance of 6\[\Omega \] the balance is obtained at 50 cm. Find the internal resistance of cell.

    A)  0.552\[\Omega ,\]        

    B)         0.652\[\Omega ,\]

    C)  1.252\[\Omega ,\]        

    D)         1.2\[\Omega ,\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    From potentiometer formula internal resistance \[\begin{align}   & r=\left( \frac{{{l}_{1}}}{{{l}_{2}}}-1 \right)R \\  & =\left( \frac{60}{50}-1 \right)\times 6 \\  & =1.2\,\Omega  \\ \end{align}\]
