What is other name for variable ressitance?
Another name for variable resistance is potentiometer. It is a three-terminal resistor with a sliding or rotating contact that forms an adjustable voltage divider.
What is the name of an instrument used to vary electrical resistance?
Rheostat is the name of an instrument used to vary electrical resistance.
Can a potentiometer be used as a rheostat?
Yes, a potentiometer can be used as a rheostat by only using two of the three terminals. By connecting one end of the resistive element to the wiper terminal, you can adjust the resistance across the other two terminals to control the current flow like a rheostat.
Where does lost energy in a rheostat go?
It is lost in heating the resistive material of the rheostat.
What is the hypothesis of a rheostat?
The hypothesis of a rheostat is that by changing the resistance in a circuit using the rheostat, the current flowing through the circuit can be varied, thus regulating the output of the circuit.
What is the function of rheostat in this experiment?
A rheostat is the name given to a variable resistor when it is used to control current. When a variable resistor is used to control voltage, we call it a potentiometer.A rheostat is connected in series with a load, and two of its three terminals are used. A potentiometer is connected in parallel with the supply, and each of its three terminals are used.So the terms 'rheostat' and 'potentiometer' are the names given to describe the function of a variable resistor, not the variable resistor itself.

How is a rheostat use as a potential divider?
_____________ J| -_____/\/\/\/\_________+ | | | - + | |___i|i|___| E Well this is the circuit diagram , where r is the sliding jockey of the rheostat and a cell (E) is connected in parallel with the rheostat. By adjusting the jockey resistance of the rheostat can be altered which in turn would regulate the potential offered by the cell E to the main circuit. And thus a rheostat can be used as a potential divider.
