A potentiometer and a rheostat are two different applications for a variable resistor.
A potentiometer is a variable resistor, connected (using its three terminals) as a variable potential divider.
A rheostat is a variable resistor, connected (using two of its three terminals) to adjust current.
What else can I help you with?
Is a pot a insulator?
The term, `pot' usually refers to a potentiometer, which is another word for an adjustable control, such as a volume control, color tint, etc.
Why do you measure emf with a potentiometer not with voltmeter?
EMF (E''electromotive Force'') is another term for Volts, hence the E in electronic formulas and EMF is measured with a volt meter. A potentiometer is not a meter at all, it is a variable resistor
What type of transducer Is potentiometer?

What are uses of potentiometer?
A potentiometer is a variable resistor used in electronics.
Define potentiometer?
A dual potentiometer is nothing but a potentiometer which has TWO channels.. Like two INs and two OUTs on the same unit.

Why potentiometer is called passive transducer?
because potentiometer generate a own current
How can the resistance of a potentiometer be adjusted to control the volume of a speaker?
The resistance of a potentiometer can be adjusted by turning the knob or slider on the potentiometer. By changing the resistance, the volume of the speaker can be controlled.
What is sensitivity of a potentiometer?
Sensitivity of potentiometer means~ smallest potential difference that can be measured with the help of it.
What is the wiper contact of linear potentiometer represent?
The wiper sets the effective resistance of the potentiometer.
What are the names of the potentiometer sensors on a 1997 jeep wrangler?
The throttle position sensor is a potentiometer.
The potentiometer is which type of tranducer?
The potentiometer is a position tranducer. It forms a resistance divider, proportional to position.
