![**Calculating the Resistance of a Gold Wire**
**Problem Statement:**
You are working at a company that manufactures electrical wire. Gold is the most ductile of all metals; it can be stretched into incredibly long, thin wires. The company has developed a new technique that will stretch 1.65 g of gold into a wire of length \(L = 2.48 \text{ km}\) and uniform diameter. Your supervisor gives you the task of determining the resistance of such a wire (in \( \text{M}\Omega \)) at \(20.0^\circ\text{C}\). (The density of gold is \(19.3 \times 10^3 \text{ kg/m}^3\).)
**Task:**
Determine the resistance of the wire.
**Input:**
\[ \boxed{} \text{ } \text{M}\Omega \]
**Density of gold:**
\[ 19.3 \times 10^3 \text{ kg/m}^3\]](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/800a48ac-05a9-41c6-9b96-1b31e1f3fea8/9108e83f-6ad7-4ae3-90aa-a0b0c4f1593a/qwwrdon_processed.png)
