उत्तर

Length of the cable wire, l = 10 km = 10000 m

Diameter of the cable wire, d = 2.0 mm

Radius of the cable wire, r = 1.0 mm = 1.0 × 10−3 m

Area of cross-section, A = πr2

= π(1.0 × 10−3)2

= π × 1.0 × 10−6

Resistivity of the aluminium cable wire = 27 × 10−8 Ω m.

Let the resistance of the aluminium cable be R.

We know that `R = (rho l)/A` 

`R = (27 xx 10^-8 xx 10^3 xx 10)/(pi xx 10^-6)`   

`R = (27 xx 10^-8 xx 10^4)/(3.14xx10^-6)`

`R = (27 xx 10^2)/pi`

R = 86 Ω
