When an external resistance of $5\text{ }\Omega$ is connected across the terminals of a cell, a current of $0.25\text{ A}$ flows through it. When the $5\text{ }\Omega$ resistor is replaced by a $2\text{ }\Omega$ resistor, a current of $0.5\text{ A}$ flows through it. The internal resistance of the cell is . . . . . . $\Omega$.
