$A$ cell of constant $e.m.f.$ is first connected to a resistance $R_1$ and then connected to a resistance $R_2$. If the power delivered in both cases is the same,then the internal resistance of the cell is:

  • A
    $\sqrt{R_1 R_2}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{R_1}{R_2}}$
  • C
    $\frac{R_1 - R_2}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{R_1 + R_2}{2}$

The actual value of resistance $R$,shown in the figure is $30\,\Omega$. This is measured in an experiment as shown using the standard formula $R_{measured} = \frac{V}{I}$,where $V$ and $I$ are the readings of the voltmeter and ammeter,respectively. If the measured value of $R$ is $5\%$ less than the actual value,then the internal resistance of the voltmeter is ................. $\Omega$.
