AIPMT PRELIMS 2001 Physics Potentiometer MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12
If specific resistance of a potentiometer wire is 10⁻⁷Ωm and current flow through it is 0.1 Å, cross-sectional area of wire is 10⁻⁶ m² then potential gradient will be :-
A
10⁻² V/m
B
10⁻⁴ V/m
C
10⁻⁶ V/m
D
10⁻⁸ V/m
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Potential gradient is calculated using V = IR, where R = ρL/A. Substituting the values gives 10⁻² V/m.
