f the galvanometer. TESTING AND TESTING APPARATUS 505 Now, replace the known high resistance (100,000 ohms) bythe unknown resistance (for instance such as a cable) the value ofwhich is to be determined. Add enough cells to produce as largea deflection of the needle as possible. Assume that 75 cells… … Fig. 582.—Commutator plug setting for comparing electromotive forces by the fall of potentialmethod with Queen acme set. .8 megohm X 75 cells = 60.0; and60.0 -T- 1.5 = 40 megohms as the resistance of the cable. Fall of Potential Method with Queen Acme Set.—To compare electromotive forces by this…
