    Answer:

    R =0.672 ohms

    Explanation:

    We have,

    Length of a gold wire is 6 m

    Resistivity of gold is 5.6\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m

    Area of cross section of the wire is 5\times 10^{-7}\ m^2

    The resistance of a wire is given by the relation as follows :

    R=\rho\dfrac{l}{A}\\\\R=5.6\times 10^{-8}\times \dfrac{6}{5\times 10^{-7}}\\\\R=0.672\ \Omega

    So, the resistance of the gold wire is 0.672 ohms.
