$A$ voltmeter is connected in parallel with a variable resistance $R$ which is in series with an ammeter and a cell as shown in the figure. For one value of $R$,the meters read $0.3 \, A$ and $0.9 \, V$. For another value of $R$,the readings are $0.25 \, A$ and $1.0 \, V$. What is the internal resistance of the cell in $\Omega$?

  • A
    $0.5$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $1.2$
  • D
    $1$
