In order to calculate the wire resistance, we can use the formula below:
Where p is the resistivity, L is the length and A is the cross-section area.
For copper, we have p = 1.72 * 10^-8.
Then, using L = 7.8 m and A = pi*r² (area of a circle), we have:
Therefore the wire resistance is 1.57 * 10^-4 ohms.
