7 x 10-7 m2. If its resistivity is 49 x 10-8 Ω m, find its resistance.
A coil of wire 4 m long has a resistance of 20 Ω. If its resistivity is
108 x 10-8 Ω m, find its area of cross-section.
A 1.75 m length of tin wire with a diameter of 0.70 mm is found to have a resistance of 0.5 Ω Find the resistivity of tin.
