CBSEENMA9003536

1.1 cu.cm of copper is to be drawn into a cylindrical wire 0.5 cm in diameter. Calculate the length of the wire.

Solution
For wire
Radius (R) = fraction numerator 0.5 over denominator 2 end fraction space cm equals 0.25 space cm
Let the length of the wire be h cm. Then, volume of the wire
            equals πr squared straight h
equals space 22 over 7 left parenthesis 0.25 right parenthesis squared straight h space cm cubed
equals space fraction numerator 11 straight h over denominator 56 end fraction space cm cubed
According to thr question
       space space space space space space fraction numerator 11 straight h over denominator 56 end fraction equals 1.1
rightwards double arrow space space space straight h equals 5.6 space cm
