Let $A$ be the cross-sectional area and $\rho$ be the specific resistance (resistivity) of a potentiometer wire. If $I$ is the current passing through the wire,then the potential gradient along the length of the wire is

$A$ 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 $2.0\,V$ and a negligible internal resistance. The potentiometer wire itself is $4\,m$ long. When the resistance $R$,connected across the given cell,has values of $(i)$ infinity and $(ii)$ $9.5\,\Omega$,the balancing lengths on the potentiometer wire are found to be $3\,m$ and $2.85\,m$,respectively. The value of internal resistance of the cell is ............... $\Omega$.
