A wire has a constant resistance. If the potential difference across it is increased from 3 V3\,\text{V} to 6 V6\,\text{V}, how will the current through the wire change? (a) It becomes 1.51.5 times the original value. (b) It becomes double the original value. (c) It remains unchanged. (d) It becomes half of the original value.
