If the resistance of a wire 300 feet long with a diameterof 0.26 inches is 18386 ohms, what is the resistance of 3100 feet of the same type of wire with a diameter of 0.35 inches? (Leave k in fraction form or round to at least 3 decimal places.  Round off your final answer to the nearest hundredth.) </SPAN>\n" );
