(b) A slide wire potentiometer uses a 200 cm kength of wire that equivakent to overall resistance of 100 Q with neglected internal resistance. This instrument is standardized with a reference voltage source of 1.019 V and the sliding contact is set to 101.9 cm during the calibration process. Cakulate the working current and the measurement range of the potentiometer.
