A potentiometer circuit is set up as shown. The potential gradient, across the potentiometer wire, is
kย volt/cm and the ammeter reads
1.0ย 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 lengths
l1โย cm and
l2โย cm respectively. The magnitudes, of the resistors
R and
X, in ohms, are:
