A resistor is attached in a simple circuit (see Figure below) to an ideal battery that has AV = 10 V. The resistor is 1.4 m long and has a cross-section of 0.2 mm². You measured the resistance to be 392 at To = 27°C. Since the resistor is made of titanium (a = 0.0038 K-¹), what would be the current flowing through it at a temperature T = 0°C?
