The mobility of electrons in a semiconductor is defined as the ratio of their drift velocity to the applied electric field. If, for an n-type semiconductor, the density of electrons is \(10^{19}~\text{m}^{-3}\) and their mobility is \(1.6~\text{m}^2/\text{(V.s)},\) then the resistivity of the semiconductor (since it is an n-type semiconductor, the contribution of holes is ignored) is close to:
1. \(2~\Omega \text{m}\)
2. \(4~\Omega \text{m}\)
3. \(0.4~\Omega \text{m}\)

The balance point is at a length \(l_1~\text{cm}\) from \({P}\) when the two-way key \({K}_3\) is plugged in between \(2\) and \(1,\) while the balance point is at a length \(l_2~\text{cm}\) from \({P}\) when the key \({K}_3\) is plugged in between \(3\) and \(1.\) The ratio of two resistances \(\frac{{R}_1}{{R}_2},\) is found to be:
