In a potentiometer (see figure) a balance is obtained at a length of $400 \ mm$ when using a known battery of emf $1.6 \ V$. After removing this battery,another battery of unknown emf is used and balance is obtained at a length of $650 \ mm.$ The emf of the unknown battery is ............. $V$. (in $V$)

In a potentiometer arrangement,a cell of $emf$ $1.25\,V$ gives a balance point at $35.0\,cm$ length of the wire. If the cell is replaced by another cell and the balance point shifts to $63.0\,cm,$ the $emf$ of the second cell is ............... $V$.

In a potentiometer experiment,the balancing length with a cell $E_{1}$ of unknown e.m.f. is $\ell_{1} \ cm$. By shunting the cell with a resistance $R \ \Omega$,the balancing length becomes $\frac{\ell_{1}}{2} \ cm$. The internal resistance $(r)$ of the cell is:
