The figure given below shows a circuit when resistances in the two arms of the meter bridge are \(5~\Omega\) and \(R\), respectively. When the resistance \(R\) is shunted with equal resistance, the new balance point is at \(1.6l_1\). The resistance \(R\) is: 
           
1. \(10~\Omega\)
2. \(15~\Omega\)
3. \(20~\Omega\)
4. \(25~\Omega\)
