Extracted text: A particular wire has a resistance of 25 Ohms. If we place an identical wire next to the first, so that they are parallel and side-by-side, so that the area of the combination of wires is twice that of the single wire. What is the resistance of the two wires in parallel. (Hint: You could treat the two wires as parallel resistors...) You may ignore significant figures. O 50 Ohms O 12.5 Ohms O 37.5 Ohms 100 Ohms
