Question: Given a copper wire of length (100 mathrm{~cm}), radius (0.8 mathrm{~mm}), and resistivity (1.68 times 10^{-8} Omega cdot mathrm{m}), find its resistance and current through

Given a copper wire of length \(100 \mathrm{~cm}\), radius \(0.8 \mathrm{~mm}\), and resistivity \(1.68 \times 10^{-8} \Omega \cdot \mathrm{m}\), find its resistance and current through the wire if connected to a \(20.0-\mathrm{V}\) battery. If the wire is stretched uniformly to 4 times its original length, what will be its new resistance?
