A resistor, R, is made out of a particular material with resistivity P. The cylindrically shaped resistor has length I and radius r. To get four times as much resistance in your resistor you could
  1.make the radius four times as big.
  2.make the radius half as big.
  3.make the radius one quarter the size.
  4.make the radius twice as big.

Question 2

The potential difference across a resistor R, and the current running through it, both increase. We know that resistance
  1.decreases.
  2.increases.
  3.remains the same.
  4.changes in ways we cannot determine with the information given.

Many people have small pouches in their colons that bulge outward through weak spots. Each pouch is called a diverticulum. About 10% of Americans older than age 40 years have diverticulosis, which, when the pouches become infected or inflamed, is called diverticulitis. The main cause of diverticular disease is a low-fiber diet.
