Calculate the resistance of 80 metres of copper wire, with a c.s.a. of 0.5mm2, given its resistivity of 1.72 x 10^-6 ohms per metre, Note, the area of the wire must be expressed as a portion of its base unit of measurement, which is the square metre.

Physics
A compartment measures 3.5 meters by 5.5 meters and is 3 meters high. A fire raises the temperature from 68of to 1500 of. If the starting pressure was 1 atmosphere, what volume is present at the elevated temperature assuming the compartment has openings to reduce pressure?

Physics
A compartment measures 3 meters by 5 meters and is 2.8 meters high. A fire raises the temperature from 20oC to 1000 oC. If the starting pressure was 1 atmosphere, what pressure is present at the elevated temperature assuming the compartment remains closed?
