Detailed Solution

If the length of a given wire is doubled, its resistance will be doubled compared to its initial resistance.
The resistance of a given wire is directly proportional to the length of the given wire. As the length is doubled, the wire's resistance also becomes doubled. Resistance is the ability of a material to resist the flow of current through it. As the length of the wire increases to double its size, more resistance is to be offered by the material to the flow of current.
