Answer:

Length, l = 3.57 meters

Explanation:

It is given that,

Area of cross-section of gold wire, A=1\ cm^2=0.0001\ m^2

Resistivity of gold wire, \rho=2.8\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m

Resistance, R = 0.001 ohms

Resistance in terms of length and area is given by :

R=\rho \dfrac{l}{A}

l=\dfrac{RA}{\rho}

l=\dfrac{0.001\times 0.0001}{2.8\times 10^{-8}}

l = 3.57 meters

So, the length of the wire is 3.57 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
