$A$ potentiometer is used to measure the potential difference between $A$ and $B$,and the null point is obtained at $0.9 \ m$. Now,the potential difference between $A$ and $C$ is measured,and the null point is obtained at $0.3 \ m$. Find the ratio $\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}}$,given that $E_{1} > E_{2}$.

$A$ potentiometer $PQ$ is set up to compare two resistances as shown in the figure. The ammeter $A$ in the circuit reads $1.0\, A$ when the two-way key $K_3$ is open. The balance point is at a length $l_1\, cm$ from $P$ when the two-way key $K_3$ is plugged in between $2$ and $1$,while the balance point is at a length $l_2\, cm$ from $P$ when key $K_3$ is plugged in between $3$ and $1$. The ratio of two resistances $\frac{R_1}{R_2}$ is found to be

$A$ potentiometer wire of length $1\,m$ and resistance $10\,\Omega$ is connected in series with a cell of $emf$ $2\,V$ with internal resistance $1\,\Omega$ and a resistance box including a resistance $R$. If the potential difference between the ends of the wire is $1\,mV$,the value of $R$ is ............. $\Omega$.
