    A wire of length $10 \mathrm{~cm}$ and radius $\sqrt{7} \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}$ connected across the right gap of a meter bridge. When a resistance of $4.5 \ \Omega$ is connected on the left gap by using a resistance box, the balance length is found to be at $60 \mathrm{~cm}$ from the left end. If the resistivity of the wire is $\mathrm{R} \times 10^{-7} \Omega \mathrm{m}$, then value of $\mathrm{R}$ is :
