A heater is designed to operate with a power of $\displaystyle 1000$ W in a $\displaystyle 100$ V line. It is connected in combination with a resistance of $\displaystyle 10 \Omega$ and a resistance R , to a $\displaystyle 100$ V mains as shown in figure. For the heater to operate at $\displaystyle 62.5$ W, the value of R should be $\displaystyle \_\_\_\_$ $\displaystyle \Omega$
