The correct answer is: 2E9

The expression for the magnetic field at the centre of a circular
coil of n turns.

B=μ0i2rn

If length of the wire is doubled,

2 2πrn=2πr'n'

2 r n=r3n'

n'=6n

For the same field at the centre,

μ0in2r=μ0i'n'2r'

μ0in2r=μ0i 6 n2 r3

  i'=i18

Since volume will remain same.

   l×A=2l×A'

  A'=A2

The resistance after doubling the length,

R'=ρl'A'

  R'=ρ 2lA/2

 R'=4ρlA

  R'=4 R

The EMF is,

E'=i'R'

  E'=i18 4 R=29E
