by M N. The difference of potential between A and i?is nowBN+AM= {V — v ) + (V + v ) = 2V a.s before. If the negative pole A of the battery is connected toearth, the potential of all points of the circuit is raisedby the amount V, and the line of potential assumes theposition A P. The potential of… … Fig. 17. and PQ, and at P erect a perpendicular to represent thedifference of potential due to the battery. Then the linesZQ and ZQ will represent the fall of potential in theresistances PQ and PQ. The potential at any point onQQ being the ordinate cut off by the lines ZQ or ZQ, ifa galvanometer be…
