A wire of uniform cross-section and length `l` has a resistance of `16 Omega ` is cut into four equal parts. Each part is stretched uniform to length `l` and all the four stretched parts are connected in parallel calcuate the total resistance of the combination so formed. Assume that stretching of wire does not cause any change in the density of its material
