There are lot of formula to find heat produced in the conductor.
P = I²R , P = VI , P = V²/R
which one should be used ? confusion ?
Don't be confuse dud , just use P = V²/R.

because here question didn't say about altering of voltage. means, voltage remains same. hence, we should Power = V²/R.

now tell me , when resistance of a conductor is reduced to half , then power should be ?
of course , double
because power is inversely proportional to resistance , if resistance is reduced to haft then power will be double.

hence, the power is doubled

Here is the answer: If the resistance of a conductor is reduced to half its initial value, then the heating effect in the conductor will become half.

When current transmit through a conductor, heat energy is generated in the conductor.

The heating effect of an electric current depends on various factors: The resistance, R of the conductor.

A greater the resistance produces more heat.
