In a potentiometer (see figure) a balance is obtained at a length of $400 \ mm$ when using a known battery of emf $1.6 \ V$. After removing this battery,another battery of unknown emf is used and balance is obtained at a length of $650 \ mm.$ The emf of the unknown battery is ............. $V$. (in $V$)

  • A
    $2.6$
  • B
    $1.6$
  • C
    $3.4$
  • D
    $4.7$
