current

what happens to the voltage across the resistor R1 when the switch is closed? The voltage will

increase

The resistance of a wire is

proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area.

If the voltage across a circuit of constant resistance is doubled, the power dissipated by that circuit will

quadruple

The resistivity of a wire depends on

the material out of which it is composed.
