An unknown resistance R(1) is connected ...

An unknown resistance `R_(1)` is connected is series with a resistance of `10 Omega`. This combination is connected to one gap of a meter bridge, while other gap is connected to another resistance `R_(2)`. The balance point is at `50 cm` Now , when the `10 Omega` resistance is removed, the balanced point shifts to `40 cm` Then the value of `R_(1)` is.
