The correct answer is: The same
\(\mathrm{P}=\frac{\varepsilon^2}{R}\)
where, \(\varepsilon=\) inducedemf \(=-\frac{d \phi}{d t}\)
\(\phi=\mathrm{NBA}\)
\(\varepsilon=\mathrm{NA} \frac{\mathrm{dB}}{\mathrm{dt}}\)
also, \(R \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{r}^2}\)
where, \(\mathrm{R}=\) resistance and \(\mathrm{r}=\) radius of wire
\(\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{P} \propto \frac{\mathrm{N}^2 \mathrm{r}^2}{\mathrm{H}^2} \\ & \frac{\mathrm{P}_1}{\mathrm{P}_2}=1 \\ & \mathrm{P}_1=\mathrm{P}_2 \end{aligned}\)
This means if the number of turns were quadrupled and the wire radius halved, the electrical power dissipated would be remains same.
