                The Correct option is D, Because it does not mention whether it is directly or inversely proportional.

                Resistance is directly proportional to length and inversely proportional to area. So the correct answer is B.

                When only 'proportional' is used the without specifying which proportion it means that only the positive proportion is implied. Just as writing 20, means +ve and -20 means -ve 20. So the answer is B.

                Here, Proportional means directly proportional.
Then answer is B.
                Then answer is B.

                It should be option B as R is proportional to the only l.

                The correct answer is only B.
