The resistance of the copper wire is 0.1039 Ω.

In calculating the resistance of a wire, the formula below can be used.

Resistance = (Resistivity*Length of wire)/(Cross-section Area)

The resistivity of copper wire is 1.72 x 10-8 Ωm. The length of the wire is 20.0 m and the area of the wire is 3.3103x10-6 square meters. The area of the wire is calculated by using the formula below.

Cross-section area= (π/4)(diameter)^2

Cross-section area=(π/4)(2.053 mm or 2.053x10-3 m)^2

Cross-section area= 3.3103x10-6 square meters

Calculating for the resistance of the wire:

Resistance= (1.72x10-8 Ωm * 20.0 m)/( 3.3103x10-6 m2)

Resistance=0.1039 Ω

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

A polar molecule has both a partial positive and a partial negative. Since NaCl (sodium chloride) is made out of Na+ and Cl- ions, the positive and negative parts of the water will pull on these ions individually since positive attracts negative and negative attracts positive. This magnetic force causes the Na+ and the Cl- ions to be pulled apart.
