A galvanometer together with an unknown resistance in series is connected across two identical batteries of each 1.5 V. When the batteries are connected in series, the galvanometer records a current of 1 A and when the batteries are connected in parallel, the current is 0.6 A. In this case, the internal resistance of the battery is 1x Ω. What is the value of x?
