The text does not specify whether the resistance R of the wire must be kept the same or not: here I assume R must be kept the same.
The relationship between the resistance and the resistivity of a wire is

where

is the resistivity
A is the cross-sectional area
R is the resistance
L is the wire length
the cross-sectional area is given by

where r is the radius of the wire. Substituting in the previous equation ,we find

For the new wire, the length L is kept the same (L'=L) while the radius is doubled (r'=2r), so the new resistivity is

Therefore, the new resistivity must be 4 times the original one.
Because they occur at an atomic level, changing the actual structure of the thing.
Hope it helps
Compute first for the vertical motion, the formula is:
y = gt²/2
0.810 m = (9.81 m/s²)(t)²/2
t = 0.4064 s
whereas the horizontal motion is computed by:
x = (vx)t
4.65 m = (vx)(0.4064 s)
4.65 m/ 0.4064s = (vx)
(vx) = 11.44 m / s
So look for the final vertical speed.
(vy) = gt
(vy) = (9.81 m/s²)(0.4064 s)
(vy) = 3.99 m/s
speed with which it hit the ground:
v = sqrt[(vx)² + (vy)²]
v = sqrt[(11.44 m/s)² + (3.99 m/s)²]
v = 12.12 m / s
