If the cross-section of a wire of fixed length is doubled, how does the resistance of that wire change? (this is for studying fo
r my semester exam. I got the question wrong on one of my chapter tests so I'm trying to find out what the correct answer was) A. Halved
B. Doubled (I know it's NOT this cause that was the wrong one)
C. Unchanged
D. Quadrupled
If the cross-section of a wire of fixed length is doubled, the resistance of that wire change into doubled.We know that <span>the total </span>length<span> of the wires will </span>affect<span> the amount of </span>resistance. <span> The longer the wire, the more </span>resistance<span> that there will be so the answer is doubled.</span>
