The balance point with a standard resistor R = 10.0 is found to be 58.3 em, while that with the unknown resistance X is 68.5 em, Determine the value of X, What might you do if you failed to find a balance point with the given cell of emf. €? Solution: Here & ¥ 1068.5 383 = 11759 L ie X= RE 4 If there is no balance point, this means that the potential drop across R and X are greater that the potential drop across the potentiometer wire AB. The obvious thing to do is to reduce the current in the outside circuit (hence the potential drop across R and X) suitably by putting a seties resistor, 24, Figure shows a 2,0 V potentiometer of internal resis- tance of a 1.5 V cell, The balance point of the cell in open circuit is 76.3 cm.
