How will you use potentiometer to determine internal resistances of a cell?

Define internal resistance of a cell and find an expression for it.

Sometmes balance point may not be obtained on the potentiometer wire. Why?

The length of a wire of a potentiometer is 100 cm, and the e.m.f. of its standard cell is E volt. It is employed to measure the e.m.f. of a battery whose internal resistance is 0.5 Omega. If the balance point is obtained at I = 30 cm from the positive end, the e.m.f. of the battery is . Where I is the current in the in the potentiometer wire.

Define internal resistance of cell and find an expression for it.
