Answer:
R = 0.0015Ω
Explanation:
The formula for calculating the resistivity of a material is expressed as;
ρ = RA/l
R is the resistance
ρ is the resistivity
A is the area of the wire
l is the length of the wire
Given
l = 85cm = 0.85m
A = πr²
A = 3.14*0.0018²
A = 0.0000101736m²
ρ = 1.75 × 10-8Ωm.
Substitute into the formula
1.75 × 10-8 = 0.0000101736R/0.85
1.4875× 10-8 = 0.0000101736R
R = 1.4875× 10-8/0.0000101736
R = 0.0015Ω
