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]: .................. \(\Omega\)

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : Emission of electrons in photoelectric effect can be suppressed by applying a sufficiently negative electron potential to the photoemissive substance.
Reason (R) : A negative electric potential, which stops the emission of electrons from the surface of a photoemissive substance, varies linearly with frequency of incident radiation.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
