Nichrome wire (ρ = 150 x 10-8 Ω.m) of cross-sectional radius 0.156 mm is to be used in winding a heating coil. If the coil must carry a current of 2.35 A when a voltage of 220 V is applied across its ends, determine the length of wire you must use to wind the coil (remember to first find the required resistance of the coil). Give your answer in meters.
