A uniform wire of length \(200 \mathrm{~cm}\) is connected to a battery, two resistors and a galvanometer as shown in the figure. The galvanometer shows null deflection when the jockey \(\mathrm{J}\) is at 80 \(\mathrm{cm}\) from point \(A\). If the resistor \(R_2\) is shunted with \(30 \Omega\) resistance, the galvanometer shows null deflection when the jockey \(J\) is at \(100 \mathrm{~cm}\) from point \(B\). Then the values of \(R_1\) and \(R_2\) respectively are

  1. A \(20 \Omega, 30 \Omega\)
  2. B \(30 \Omega, 20 \Omega\)
  3. C \(15 \Omega, 10 \Omega\)
  4. D \(10 \Omega, 15 \Omega\)
