\begin{aligned} & \text { Length becomes }=1.2 \text { times } \\ \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} & \ell^{\prime}=1.2 \ell \\ \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{R}^{\prime}=\mathrm{n}^2 \mathrm{R} \\ \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} & =(1.2)^2 \mathrm{R} \\ \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} & =1.44 \mathrm{R} \\ \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} & \Delta \mathrm{R}=0.44 \mathrm{R} \\ \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} & \frac{\Delta \mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{R}} \times 100 \%=44 \% \end{aligned}
