A potentiometer with a uniform resistance per unit length of track has a total resistance of 2 k2 and a supply voltage of 10 V is connected across it. The output from the potentiometer is connected across a load of resistance 5 kN. What will be the error due to this loading when the slider is at the mid-point of the potentiometer track?

The temperature dependence of resistance is also quantified by the relation R2=R1[ 1+(T2T1) ] where R1 and R2 are the resistances at temperatures T1 and T2, respectively, and is known as the temperature coefficient of resistance. If a copper wire has a resistance of 55 at 20C, find the maximum permissible operating temperature of the wire if its resistance is to increase by at most 20. Take the temperature coefficient at 20C to be =0.00382.
