Two copper wires have the same length, but one has twice the diameter of the other. Compared to the one that has the smaller diameter, the one that has the larger diameter has a resistance that is A. larger by a factor of 2 . B. larger by a factor of 4 . C. the same. D. smaller by a factor of $1 / 2$. E. smaller by a factor of $1 / 4$.

Consider two copper wires of equal length. One wire has twice the cross-sectional area of the other. How do the resistances of these two wires compare? The thicker wire has twice the resistance of the thinner wire. The thicker wire has eight times the resistance of the thinner wire. The thicker wire has one-half the resistance of the thinner wire. The thicker wire has four times the resistance of the thinner wire. The thicker wire has one-fourth the resistance of the thinner wire.
