Answer:
New Resistance = 0.5556 ohm
Explanation:
Resistance = resistivity * length /area
Here since resistivity and length are constant, we only need to see how the resistance increases or decreases with change in area.
New Area = pi * (3*D)^2 / 4
Old Area = pi * D^2 / 4
The ratio of new area / old area is :
Since area increases 9 times, and it is inversely proportional to resistance:
Resistance decreases by 9 times.
So, old resistance = Voltage / Current = 10 / 2 = 5 ohm
New Resistance = 5 / 9 = 0.5556 ohm (decreases by 9 times)
