Question: Using the instruction provided in the appendix, measure the electrical resistance of the heating element. If the cross section of the heating element looks like

Using the instruction provided in the appendix, measure the electrical resistance of the heating element. If the cross section of the heating element looks like Figure 1,calculate d.The electrical conductivity of the heating element which is made of nickel and chromium, also known as nichrome, is 210^6/m.(Hint: Length can be determined by dividing the measured volume by the area)
given:
Resistance (R)=0.3 k=300
Volume of heating element (V)=20 mL =2010 m^3
Electrical conductivity of nichrome =210/m
Cross-sectional length (L)=6.2 cm =0.062 m
