In the given potentiometer circuit arrangement, the balancing length AC is measured to be $\displaystyle 250$ cm. When the galvanometer connection is shifted from point ($\displaystyle 1$) to point ($\displaystyle 2$) in the given
diagram, the balancing length becomes $\displaystyle 400$ cm . The ratio of the emf of two cells, $\displaystyle \frac{\varepsilon_1}{\varepsilon_2}$ is :

Official answer
(2)
$\displaystyle \frac{5}{3}$
