One

A: q/s charge per second sounds like a current. It is not the answer.

B: Joule/coulomb is energy / charge that is the definition of EMF That is your answer.

C: Joule / second sounds like a watt. That's not the answer.

D: Newton / m^2 is a pressure. Not your answer.

Two

The resistance of a wire or any cylinder is

R = k * L/Cross Sectional Area

k is a constant

L is the length

The Cross sectional area is pi*r^2 where r is the radius.

If the length is doubled and so is the radius


(r1)/(r) = ((k*2L)/(pi(2r)^(2)))/((kL)/(pi*r^2) )

Everything cancels out except r1/r = 2/4 = 1/2

So the resistance is 1/2 of what it was.

E = I * R

E is a constant.

R = R/2

E = I * R/2

2 * (E / R) = I

(2*I) = the new I

The answer is A
