Answer:
the length of the wire is 134.62 m.
Explanation:
Given;
resistivity of the copper wire, ρ = 2.6 x 10⁻⁸ Ωm
cross-sectional area of the wire, A = 35 x 10⁻⁴ cm² = ( 35 x 10⁻⁴) x 10⁻⁴ m²
resistance of the wire, R = 10Ω
The length of the wire is calculated as follows;
[tex]R = \frac{\rho L}{A} \\\\L = \frac{RA}{\rho} \\\\L= \frac{10 \times (35\times 10^{-4}) \times 10^{-4}}{2.6 \times 10^{-8}} \\\\L = 134.62 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the length of the wire is 134.62 m.
