     \mathrm{P}_1=\frac{\mathrm{v}_0^2}{\mathrm{R}}

\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{P}_2=\frac{\mathrm{v}_0^2}{\left(\frac{\mathrm{R}}{2}\right)}+\frac{\mathrm{v}_0^2}{\left(\frac{\mathrm{R}}{2}\right)} \\ & \mathrm{P}_2=4 \mathrm{P}_1 \\ & \frac{\mathrm{P}_2}{\mathrm{P}_1}=\frac{4}{1}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{x}}}{1} \\ & \mathrm{x}=16 \end{aligned}
