Question
Bends in a rubber pipe reduce the flow of water through it. How would the bands in a wire affect its electric resistance?

Solution
Bends in the wire will not affect its resistance. This is because the electrons are extremely small in size as compared to the bends. So, the electrons can easily change their direction of motion.
