The balancing length for a cell is $560 \, cm$ in a potentiometer experiment. When an external resistance of $10 \, \Omega$ is connected in parallel to the cell, the balancing length changes by $60 \, cm$. The internal resistance of the cell in ohms, is

  • A
    $1.6$
  • B
    $1.4$
  • C
    $1.2$
  • D
    $0.12$
