Topband: How long for how heavy ? SWG (AWG) to kilogrammmes (Pounds)

[Ffive VHN]

Hello,

I'm trying to find the the calculation to convert weight in to length for enammelled copper wire. 
For example here in Europe wire is sold in reels of 500 grammes. 

What I want to know is what length of wire will I get for this weight.

A second question, What would be the minimum wire gauge you would use for radials on (or just under) the ground ?  

Thanks
