(d) $\frac{Q}{t} = \frac{{kA(\Delta \theta )}}{l}$

==>$\frac{Q}{t} \propto \frac{A}{l} \propto \frac{{{r^2}}}{l}$

==> $\frac{{{{\left( {Q/t} \right)}_1}}}{{{{(Q/t)}_2}}} = {\left( {\frac{{{r_1}}}{{{r_2}}}} \right)^2} \times \frac{{{l_2}}}{{{l_1}}}$$ = {\left( {\frac{2}{1}} \right)^2} \times \left( {\frac{4}{1}} \right) = \frac{{16}}{1}$
