The correct option is B. Decrease the length of the wire between the switch and the battery.

Resistivity of wire

The resistivity of a wire is the measure of the opposition to the flow of current offered by the wire.

ρ = RA/L

RA = ρL

R = ρL/A

where;

  • ρ is resistivity of the wire
  • R is resistance of the wire
  • L is length
  • A is area

Decrease in length of the wire will cause a decrease in the resistance of the wire, and it will increase the current flowing in the wire, causing the bulb to glow brighter.
