The wire on a strain gauge has resistivity 0.015 × 106 Qm and gauge factor 2.0, and is attached to an aluminium sample experiencing a strain of 0.008. The wire is 5 mm long and 0.25 mm in diameter. What change in resistance will be detected in the wire? Give your answer in Q to 3 significant figures. (Very small values may be input in decimal or scientific notation. For example, 1.23 × 10-4 can be input as 0.000123 or 1.23*10^-4.)
