A potentiometer wire of length 100 cm has a resistance of 10 ohm. It is connected in series with a resistance and a battery of emf 2V and of negligible internal resistance. A source of emf 10mV is balanced against a length of 40 cm of the potentiometer wire. What is the value of the external resistance?
