Here $I_{1}=60 c m I_{2}=50 c m, R=5 \Omega$

$e=k l_{1}$

where $\mathrm{k}$ is the potential gradient ac ross the wire

$V=k l_{2}$

$\therefore \varepsilon v=\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}}=\frac{60}{50}=\frac{6}{5}$

Internal resistance of the cell is

$r=\left(\frac{\varepsilon}{V}-1\right) R=\left(\frac{6}{5}-1\right)=1.0 \Omega$
