Two sources of equal emf are connected to an external resistance R. The internal resistances of the two sources are R1 and R2(R2>R1). If the potential difference across the source having internal resistance R2 is zero, then 

(1) R=R1R2/(R1+R2)

(2) R=R1R2/(R2R1)

(3) R=R2×(R1+R2)/(R2R1)

(4) R=R2R1

For measurement of potential difference, the potentiometer is preferred in comparison to the voltmeter because:

1. the potentiometer is more sensitive than the voltmeter.

2. the resistance of the potentiometer is less than
    the voltmeter.

3. the potentiometer is cheaper than the voltmeter.

4. the potentiometer does not take current from the circuit.
