In the circuit shown,the galvanometer $G$ of resistance $60 \, \Omega$ is shunted by a resistance $r = 0.02 \, \Omega$. The current through $R$ is nearly $1 \, A$. The value of resistance $R$ (in $\Omega$) is nearly:

Assertion : In a simple battery circuit,the point of the lowest potential is the negative terminal of the battery.
Reason : The current flows towards the point of the higher potential,as it does in such a circuit from the negative to the positive terminal.

The battery in the diagram is to be charged by the generator $G$. The generator has a terminal voltage of $120 \ V$ when the charging current is $10 \ A$. The battery has an $emf$ of $100 \ V$ and an internal resistance of $1 \ \Omega$. In order to charge the battery at $10 \ A$ charging current,the resistance $R$ should be set at ................ $\Omega$.
