If two wires of the same material have the same thickness but different length the blank wire will have greater resistance?

The thinner the wire, the higher the resistance. The thicker the wire, the resistance decreases. Think of it this way. The thick wire has more room for electrons to jump around, but the thin wire has less room.


Do bend in the wire effect the electric resistance?

The resistance is based on the cross sectional area. It is conceivable that you could bend a wire in such a way as to affect the cross sectional area, but unlikely.


How do hydroelectric magnets create electricity?

There is no such thing as a hydroelectric magnet, but perhaps you mean how do hydroelectric generators create electricity? Generators work in a way opposite to electric motors. In this generator, a stream of water flows past the vanes of a turbine and causes the turbine to spin. The turbine causes an armature with magnets to rotate. The consequent rotating magnetic field moves past conductive coils of wire surrounding the armature, and as you may know, current is generated when a conductive wire is exposed to a moving magnetic field.


Why does the electrical resistance of a wire decrease when the wire is made shorter?

Using an analogy is the best way to explain this. Think of electrical current as cars on a road. The cars all want to get to their destination (which in a complete circuit is just to go in a loop) in the shortest time possible. As the road get's shorter the time it takes for the car to reach it's destination decreases.
