Area of cross-section of the wire, A =π (d/2) 2


Diameter= 0.5 mm = 0.0005 m
Resistance, R = 10 Ω
We know that
∴ length of the wire = 122.72m
If the diameter of the wire is doubled, new diameter=2×0.5=1mm=0.001m
Let new resistance be Rʹ
∴ the new resistance is 2.5 Ω
Decrease in resistance = 10 - 2.5
= 7.5 Ω.
