$A$ potentiometer wire has a length of $100 \ cm$ and is connected to a cell of $emf \ E$. It is used to measure the $emf \ E_0$ of a battery with an internal resistance of $0.5 \ \Omega$. If the balance point is obtained at a distance of $\ell = 30 \ cm$ from the positive terminal,the $emf \ E_0$ of the battery is:
