lead conductor is 5cm in length and 8 sq. cm in cross-sectional area. The terminals to be joined by this conductor are 8 cm apart. Hence, the conductor was pounded and reshaped until it is 8 cm long. If the resulting conductor has uniform cross-sectional area, determine the resistance. Resistivity of leads is 22x10^-8 Ω-m.

A lead conductor is 5cm in length and 8 sq. cm in cross-sectional area. The terminals to be joined by this conductor are 8 cm apart. Hence, the conductor was pounded and reshaped until it is 8 cm long. If the resulting conductor has uniform cross-sectional area, determine the resistance. Resistivity of leads is 22x10^-8 Ω-m.
