⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀❍ Converting Units : ⠀⠀

$\sf{\bf{Converting\:units}}\begin {cases} \sf{ The \:Length \:of\:copper\:wire\:is\:2\:km\:or\:2000\:m\:or\:2 \times 10^{3} \:m.}& \\\\ \sf{ Radius \:of\:Copper\:wire\:is\:2\:mm\:or\:2 \times 10^{-3}}&\\\\ \sf{Resistivity \:of\:Copper \:is\:1.72\times 10^{8}}\end{cases}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$\underline{\frak{As\:We\:know\:that\::}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$\pink{\boxed { \sf{Resistance = \dfrac{ Resistivity \:of\:Copper\:wire\: \times Length}{Area}}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$\underline {\sf{\bf{\star\:Now \: By \: Substituting \: the \: Given \: Values \::}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$:\implies { \sf{Resistance = \dfrac{ Resistivity \:of\:Copper\:wire\: \times Length}{Area}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

As , We know that :

Area of Wire = $\pi\:\times Radius^{2}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$:\implies { \sf{Resistance = \dfrac{ Resistivity \:of\:Copper\:wire\: \times Length}{\pi\times Radius^{2}}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$:\implies { \sf{Resistance = \dfrac{ 1.72 \times10^{-8}\times 2 \times 10^{3} \: }{\pi\times \big(2 \times 10^{-3}\big)^{2}}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$:\implies { \sf{Resistance = \dfrac{ 1.72 \times10^{-8}\times 2 \times 10^{3} \: }{3.14 \times 4 \times 10^{-6}}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$:\implies { \sf{Resistance = \dfrac{ 1.72 \times10^{-8}\times 2 \times 10^{3} \: }{12.56 \times 10^{-6}}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

☆ Now By Using Law's of Exponents :

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$:\implies { \sf{Resistance = \dfrac{ 1.72 \times \cancel {10^{-8}} \times 2 \times \cancel {10^{3}} \: }{12.56 \times \cancel {10^{-6}}}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ 10 $^{(-8 + 3 + 6)}$ = 10 $^{-5 + 6}$= 10 $^{-1}$= 1 ]

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$:\implies { \sf{Resistance = \dfrac{ 1.72 \times 2 \: }{12.56 } }}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$:\implies { \sf{Resistance = \dfrac{ \cancel {34.4}\: }{\cancel {12.56} } }}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$:\pink{\boxed { \sf{Resistance = 2.7388 \:ohm}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Therefore,

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$\underline {\therefore\:{\pink{ \mathrm {The\:Resistance\:of\: Copper\:wire\:is\: = 2.7388 \:ohm  }}}}$
