If one terminal is connected to a fixed voltage, the voltage across the resistor can be changed by sliding the contact. This makes a potentiometer useful for measuring voltage, current, and resistance.<\/p>\n<p>To measure resistance with a potentiometer, the potentiometer is first calibrated by connecting it to a known voltage source. The sliding contact is then adjusted until the voltage across the resistor is equal to the known voltage. The resistance of the resistor can then be calculated from the known voltage and the voltage across the resistor.<\/p>\n<p>It is necessary to standardize the potentiometer before using it to measure resistance. This is because the resistance of the potentiometer <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> can change over time due to factors such as temperature and humidity.
