Longitudinal waves have energy that vibrates parallel to the medium - a compression is the region of greatest density and the rarefaction the region of highest density .The rarefaction (much like the maximum amplitude in a transverse wave) has a region of lowest density, typically situated in the exact center of the region.
The process of arriving at a general conclusion based on the observation of specific examples is called inductive reasoning. It is a logical process where multiple premises are combined to obtain a conclusion. It is <span>used in applications that involve prediction and forecasting.</span>

Answer:
R' = 4R
The resistance will become 4 times the initial value.
Explanation:
The resistance of a wire at room temperature, is given by the following formula:
R = ρL/A ----------- equation 1
where,
R = Resistance of wire
ρ = resistivity of the material
L = Length of wire
A = Cross-sectional area of wire
Now, if the length (L) is multiplied by 4, then resistance will become:
R' = ρ(4L)/A
R' = 4 (ρL/A)
using equation 1:
<u>R' = 4R</u>
<u>The resistance will become 4 times the initial value.</u>
