Answer

(3) [figure]

Solution

Current: I = R + r

V = IR = RR + r = 1 + rR

At R = 0, V = 0; as R increases V rises and approaches when R r (never exceeding it).

So V increases from zero and saturates at ε.

A potentiometer circuit is set up as shown. The potential gradient, across the potentiometer wire, is k volt/cm and the ammeter, present in the circuit, reads 1.0 A when two way key is switched off. The balance points, when the key between the terminals (i) 1 and 2 (ii) 1 and 3, is plugged in, are found to be at length l1 cm and l2 cm respectively. The magnitudes, of the resistors R and X, in ohms, are then, equal, respectively, to [figure]
