A properly insulated, tightly wound, 86 cm solenoid is made from wire that is 0.43 mm in diameter. When steady current flows through the solenoid, a potential difference of 40 V is measured across the solenoid terminals. The field inside the solenoid is measured to be 0.4 mT, and the cross section of the solenoid is 3 cm^2. What is the resistivity of the wire material?
