No. If you double the length of the sides, you multiply the area by 4. For example, a 10x10 square has an area of 100, but a 20x20 square has an area of 400.

How does doubling the area of a square affect the side length?

It is increased by x sqrt(2).


What happen to the area of a square if side is doubled?

Doubling the length of the sides of a square results in the area being quadrupled (four times the original area).


What effect does doubling the base of a triangle have on the area?

Doubling the base of a triangle while keeping the height constant will double the area of the triangle. The area of a triangle is directly proportional to its base length, so increasing the base length by a factor of 2 will result in the area being multiplied by 2 as well.


What happens to the side length of a square when you double the area?

To double the area of a square, you must multiply the length of the sides by the square root of 2, √2, which is about 1.414.


What is the value of the resistance when both length and diameter are double?

Doubling the diameter of a circular-section conductor will quadruple its cross-sectional area and, therefore, reduce its resistance by a quarter. Doubling the length of a conductor will double its resistance. So, in this example, the resistance of the conductor will halve.


What happens to the area of a square when the measurement of its side is doubled?

If a square has a side length of 4 centimetres, then its area is equal to 4 x 4 = 16cm2 (16 square centimetres).If a square has a side length of 8 centimetres, then its area is equal to 8 x 8 = 64cm2 (64 square centimetres).Therefore, by doubling the side length of a square, the squares area quadruples.


What is the Change in resistance of wire when its length is double?

Assuming the wire follows Ohm's Law, the resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length therefore doubling the length will double the resistance of the wire. However when the length of the wire is doubled, its cross-sectional area is halved. ( I'm assuming the volume of the wire remains constant and of course that the wire is a cylinder.) As resistance is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area, halving the area leads to doubling the resistance. The combined effect of doubling the length and halving the cross-sectional area is that the original resistance of the wire has been quadrupled.


If the length of a square is doubled how is the area affected?

The Area of a square can be written as it's side length^2, orA = s^2if the side length is doubled, then s' is 2s.A' = (s')^2A' = (2s)^2A' = 4s^2 = 4*AWhen the side length is doubled, the area increases by a factor of 4


What happens to the area of a circle if the circumference is doubled?

Oh, dude, if you double the circumference of a circle, the area will also double. It's like they're best friends or something. So, if you're out there stretching circles, just know that their area will stretch along with them.


How can doubling the width of a rectangular rug affect the perimeter and area?

Doubling the width of a rectangular rug will affect the perimeter because the total length and width will be doubled. The area will be twice the length times the width.


If the length of a side of a square is doubled how does this effect area?

When you double the length of one side, the area is increased by a factor of four. Example:A square with side lengths of 10 feet has an area of 100 square feet.A square with side lengths of 20 feet has an area of 400 square feet.


A triangle has an area of 34cm squared If you double the base length and height of the triangle what will be the area of the triangle?

Doubling those two dimensions would quadruple the area. So new area = 4*34 cm2 = 136 cm2
