Answer» Correct Answer - A When we measure the emf of a cell by the potentiometer then no current flows in the circuit in zero-deflection condition i.e., cell is in open circuit. Thus, in this condition the actual value of a cell is found. In this way, potentiometer is equivalent to an ideal voltmeter of infinite resistance. |
