A current of 1.0 mA is flowing through a potentiometer wire of length 4 m and of resistance `4 Omega`, find the potential gradient of potentiometer wire
Text Solution
AI Generated Solution
To find the potential gradient of the potentiometer wire, we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Convert the current to amperes
The current flowing through the potentiometer wire is given as 1.0 mA. We need to convert this to amperes:
\[
1.0 \, \text{mA} = 1.0 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{A}
\]
