$A$ potentiometer circuit has been set up for finding the internal resistance of a given cell. The main battery,used across the potentiometer wire,has an $EMF$ of $2.0\,V$ and a negligible internal resistance. The potentiometer wire itself is $4\,m$ long. When the resistance $R$,connected across the given cell,has values of $(i)$ infinity and $(ii)$ $9.5\,\Omega$,the balancing lengths on the potentiometer wire are found to be $3\,m$ and $2.85\,m$,respectively. The value of internal resistance of the cell is ............... $\Omega$.

The arrangement as shown in the figure is called:

In a potentiometer of $10$ wires,the balance point is obtained on the $6^{\text{th}}$ wire. To shift the balance point to the $8^{\text{th}}$ wire,we should:
