Answer:
As we know that resistance of a wire is inversely proportional to the square of its diameter
Explanation:
so if diameter is x
resistance =x²
so new diameter = x/2
new resistance = x²/4
ratio =x²/(x²/4)
4x²/x² = 4 times
so resistance would be 4 times

Answer:
hi
Explanation:
Given,
diameter of copper wire = 0.5mm = 5 × 10-⁴ m
resistivity = 1.6 × 10^-8 ohm.m
resistance = 10 ohm
Length = ?
we know,
R = dL/A
where R , d , L and A are resistance , resistivity , length and cross section area.
10 = 1.6 × 10^-8 × L/(πr²)
L = 10 × 3.14 × (2.5 × 10^-4)² × 10^8/1.6
L = 10× 3.14 × 6.25/1.6=122.656
