    The galvanometer deflection, when key $K_1$ is closed but $K_2$ is open, equals $\theta_0$ (see figure). On closing $K_2$ also and adjusting $R_2$ to $5\,\Omega $ , the deflection in galvanometer becomes $\frac{{\theta _0}}{5}$. The resistance of the galvanometer is, then, given by [Neglect the internal resistance of battery]: .................. $\Omega$
