Explanation:
Resistance= Resistivity x length/area
When the wire is stretched to double the length , the area of cross section gets reduced to half.
So
New Resistance = Resistivity x 2length/area/2
I.e,
New resistance = (Resistivity x length/area)x4
i.e, New resistance = Resistance x 4
So when the wire is stretched, the resistance multiplies by four times.
Hope you understood. Keep exploring
