a copper wire of diameter 6mm is evenly wrapped on a cylinder of length 15cm and diameter 49cm to cover its whole surface . find the length and volume of the wire. if the specific gravity of copper be 9kg per cu cm , find the weight of the wire.
Diameter of copper wire = 6 mm i.e. its radius = 3 mm
Length of cylinder = 15 cm = 150 mm
Diameter of cylinder = 49 cm = 490 mm
Number of turns of copper wire =
Length of one turn =
So total length of copper wire =
Therefore volume of copper wire =
Volume ( in cubic centimetres ) = 1089
Specific gravity of wire =
So weight of wire =
Length of cylinder = 15 cm = 150 mm
Diameter of cylinder = 49 cm = 490 mm
Number of turns of copper wire =
Length of one turn =
So total length of copper wire =
Therefore volume of copper wire =
Volume ( in cubic centimetres ) = 1089
Specific gravity of wire =
So weight of wire =
