The resistance of a conductor is given by the formula:
R = ρL/A
where R is resistance, ρ (rho) is resistivity, L is the length of the conductor, and A is the cross-sectional area of the conductor.
We are given the resistance of the cable (R = 21 Ω), its diameter (d = 4 x 10-3 m), and its resistivity (ρ = 3.0 x 10-8 Ωm). We can use the diameter to find the cross-sectional area of the cable, using the formula:
A = πd2/4
Substituting the given values:
A = π x (4 x 10-3)2/4 = 1.26 x 10-5 m2
Now we can rearrange the formula for resistance to solve for the length of the cable (L):
L = RA/ρ
Substituting the given values:
L = 21 x 1.26 x 10-5 / 3.0 x 10-8
Simplifying the expression, we get:
L = 8.82 x 103 m
Therefore, the length of the cable is 8.82 x 103 m.
So the correct answer is) 8.8 x 103 m.

In the given radioactive decay equation, beta decay occurs when a neutron in the nucleus of Hg-198 is converted into a proton, causing the atomic number to increase by one and the atomic mass to remain the same. In beta decay, a high-energy electron is emitted from the nucleus.
The equation for beta decay is:
n → p + e- + anti-νe
where n represents a neutron, p represents a proton, e- represents an electron, and anti-νe represents an antineutrino.
Therefore, in the given decay equation, one beta particle (electron) will be emitted as a neutron is converted to a proton.
Hence, the answer is 1.
