Figure 1

Figure 2

\text{For fig(1)}

\mathrm{i=\frac{2 E}{2+2 r}=(i) }

\text{From fig(2)}

\mathrm{i=\frac{E}{2+\frac{r}{2}}=(i i) }

\mathrm{(i) =({i i})}

\mathrm{\frac{2 E}{2(1+r)}=\frac{2 E}{4+r}} \\

\mathrm{4+r=2+2 r }\\

\mathrm{4-2=r} \\

\mathrm{r=2 \Omega}

Hence the correct answer is option 1
