The figure shows a 2.0 V potentiometer used for the determination of the internal resistance of a 1.5 V cell. The balance point of the cell in the open circuit is 76.3 cm. When a resistor of 9.5 Ω is used in the external circuit of the cell, the balance point shifts to 64.8 cm length of the potentiometer wire. The internal resistance of the cell is:
    
1. \(1.68~\Omega \)
2. \(0.13~\Omega \)
3. \(0.31~\Omega \)
4. \(1.12~\Omega \)

4. Resistivity of Cu decreases and Ge increases

A potential difference of 5 V is applied across a conductor of length 10 cm. If the drift velocity of electrons is $2.5\times {10}^{-4}$ m/s, then the electron mobility will be:

A wire of resistance x ohm is drawn out so that its length is increased to twice its original length and its new resistance becomes $20\mathrm{\Omega }$, then x will be:
