Whale and Kanmuro are two islands located at the Chimera archipelago. These two are separated by a distance of 19 miles. A power link is to be established between them. The power link delivers a maximum power of 632 megawatts at full capacity with an operating voltage of 486 kilovolts. Note that 1 mile is 1.5 kilometers. Solve for the resistivity (in ohm- micrometers) of the cable asusming a conductor diameter of 1.45 centimeters.
