A potentiometer circuit has been set up for finding the internal resistance of a given cell. The main battery, used across the potentiometer wire, has an emf of 2.0V and a negligible internal resistance. The potentiometer wire itself is 4m long. When the resistance R connected across the given cell, then has values of
(i) infinity (ii) 9.5Ω
The balancing lengths of the potentiometer wire are found to be 3m and 2.85m, respectively. The value of internal resistance of the cell is

Options

(a) 0.25Ω
(b) 0.95Ω
(c) 0.5Ω
(d) 0.75Ω
