Question

Sensitivity of potentiometer

Answer 1

Sensitivity of potentiometer can be increased by. Sensitivity of potentiometer can be increased by increasing the length of thepotentiometer wire and by reducing the current in the circuit by using a rheostat. Both the methods help in decreasing the potential gradient, and thereby increasing the resistivity.

Answer 2

Hey mate

Here is ur answer

A potentiometer is said to be sensitive if it can measure very small potential differences. It's sensitivity can be increased by increasing the no. of wires of the potentiometer, which in turn decreases its potential gradient.
