When cell of E.M.F. ' $E_1$ ' is connected to potentiometer wire, the balancing length is $l_1$. Another cell of E.M.F. ' $E_2$ ' $\left(E_1 \gt E_2\right)$ is connected so that two cells oppose each other, then the balancing length is $l_2$. The ratio $\mathrm{E}_1: \mathrm{E}_2$ is
  1. $\frac{l_1}{l_1+l_2}$
  2. $\frac{l_1}{l_1-l_2}$
  3. $\frac{l_1+l_2}{l_1}$
  4. $\frac{l_1+l_2}{l_1-l_2}$

Solution

Using sum and difference method, $\frac{\mathrm{E}_1}{\mathrm{E}_2}=\frac{l_1}{l_1-l_2}$ ^
