When the length of the wire is doubled, its resistance increases, as resistance is directly proportional to length according to Ohm's Law (R = ρL/A, where ρ is resistivity, L is length, and A is cross-sectional area). If the voltage remains constant, the increased resistance leads to a decrease in current, which is measured by the ammeter. Therefore, the ammeter reading will decrease when the length of the wire is doubled.
