Two cells of e.m.f E1 and E2 (E1>E2) are connected as shown in figure. When a potentiometer is connected between A and B, the balancing length of the potentiometer wire is 300 cm. On connecting the same potentiometer between A and C, the balancing length is 100 cm. The ratio E1/E2 is
Key concept: If a constant current flows through a wire of uniform area of cross-section, then potential drop along the wire is directly proportional to the length of the wire. |
