B$4R$
b $R \propto {l^2}$ $ \Rightarrow $ If $l$ doubled then $R$ becomes $4$ times.

A cylindrical copper rod has length $L$ and resistance $R$. If it is melted and formed into another rod of length $2 L$, then the resistance will be ....... $R$
In the given circuit, an ideal voltmeter connected across the $10\,\Omega $ resistance reads $2\, V$. The internal resistance $r$, of each cell is ................... $\Omega$
There are three resistance coils of equal resistance. The maximum number of resistances you can obtain by connecting them in any manner you choose, being free to use any number of the coils in any way is
The resistance of an electrical toaster has a temperature dependence given by $R\left( T \right) = {R_0}\left[ {1 + \alpha \left( {T - {T_0}} \right)} \right]$ in its range of operation. At ${T_0} = 300\,K,R = 100\,\Omega $ and at $T = 500\,K,\,R = 120\,\Omega $. The toaster is connected to a voltage source at $200\, V$ and its temperature is raised at a constant rate from $300$ to $500\, K$ in $30\, s$. The total work done in raising the temperature is
