3.23 Figure 3.34 shows a 2.0 V potentiometer used for the determination of internal resistance of a 1.5 V cell. The balance point of the cell in open circuit is 76.3 cm. When a resistor of 9.5 Ω is used in the external circuit of the cell, the balance point shifts to 64.8 cm length of the potentiometer wire. Determine the internal resistance of the cell.
According to this chapter, a galvanometer is used to find and measure the small electric currents in a circuit. The principle that works in a galvanometer is the electromagnetic induction.
There are two types of electricity - Static and Current electricity. The electric charges buildup on a material's surface is called the static electricity. The continuous flow of electric charge is termed as the current electricity. Current electricity is of two types - Alternating Current (AC) and
In simple words, current electricity can be defined as the electric charge continuously moving from one place to another along a pathway. It is measured in amperes (A). Electric current is needed for electrical devices to work.
No, in fact, it is one of the easiest chapter of class 12 Physics. Other chapters which are considered comparatively easy are Ray Optics and Electric Charges and Fields.
