A 6 volt battery is connected to the terminals of a three meter long wire of uniform thickness and resistance of 100 ohm. The difference of potential between two points on the wire separated by a distance of 50 cm will be
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
According to given parameters in question

Thus total resistance of 50 cm wire is

The total current in the wire is 
Therefore potential difference across the two points on the wire separated by a distance of 50
is
