Figure shows a simple potentiometer circuit for measuring a small $e.m.f$. produced by a thermocouple. The meter wire $PQ$ has a resistance $5 \,\Omega$ and the driver cell has an e.m.f. of $2\, V$. If a balance point is obtained $0.600\, m$ along $PQ$ when measuring an e.m.f. of $6.00\, mV$, what is the value of resistance $R$ ............... $\Omega$
