A potentiometer circuit is set up as shown. The potential gradient across the potentiometer wire is k volt /cm and the ammeter, present in the circuit, reads 1.0 A when the two-way key is switched off. The balance points, when the key between the terminals (i) 1 and 2 (ii) 1 and 3, is plugged in, are found to be at lengths l1 and l2 cm respectively. The magnitudes, of the resistor R and X, in ohm, are then, equal respectively, to
