Final answer:

The resistance of a piece of copper wire cannot be calculated without knowing the cross-sectional area of the wire.

Step-by-step explanation:

The resistance of a piece of copper wire can be found using the formula:

R = ρ * (L/A)

where R is resistance, ρ is resistivity, L is length, and A is the cross-sectional area of the wire.

Since the cross-sectional area is not given, we cannot calculate the resistance without additional information.
