The length of a wire of a potentiometer is 100 cm, and the emf of its standard cell is E volt. It is employed to measure the e.m.f of a battery whose internal resistance is 0.5 Ω. If the balance point is obtained at l = 30 cm from the positive end, the e.m.f. of the battery is :

(1) $\frac{30E}{100}$

(2) $\frac{30E}{100.5}$

(3) $\frac{30E}{(100-0.5)}$

(4) $\frac{30(E-0.5i)}{100}$, where i is the current in the potentiometer

(3) 5 V

(4) 4 V
