A metal wire has a resistance of 14.00 Ω at a temperature of 25.0°C. If the same wire has a resistance of 14.55 Ω at 90.0°C, what is the resistance when its temperature is −32.0°C?

13.52 Ω

Explanation:

coefficient of thermal resistance be α

R₀ , R₂₅ , R₉₀ and R₋₃₂ be resistances at 0 , 25 , 90 , and - 32 degree

R₂₅ = R₀ + α x 25

R₉₀ = R₀ + α x 90

R₉₀ - R₂₅ = 65 x α

α = (R₉₀ - R₂₅ )/ 65

= (14.55 - 14) / 65

=   .55 / 65 Ω per °C,

R₂₅ = R₀ + α x 25

14 = R₀ + (.55 / 65 )x 25

=  R₀ + .2115

R₀ = 13.7885 Ω

R₋₃₂ = R₀ - α x 32

= 13.7885 -(  .55 / 65) x 32

=  13.7885 - .27077

= 13.51773 Ω

= 13.52 Ω

answer; ///i believe that the correct answer is (carbon); good luck
