Explanation:
Solution. (a) Resistance of a wire is directly proportional to the length of a wire; so if the length is doubled, resistance is also doubled. ... Thus, if radius is doubled, area increases four times and hence the resistance becomes one-fourth.

Answer:
R' = 6 ohm
Explanation:
R = 24 ohm
R = pl/A
length is reduced to half so area will be doubled
Let new resistance be R'
l' = l/2
A' = 2A
R' = pl'/A'
R' = pl/2 x 2 A
R' = 1/4(pl/A)
R' = 1/4 ( R)
R' = 24/4
R' = 6 ohm
Hope it is correct
Plz mark it brainliest
