Expert Answer
Length of the cylinder = 24 cm
Diameter ofcopper wire = 4 m
One round of the wire will cover the surface of cylinder by 4 mm
Therefore, the number of rounds of wire to cover the length of cylinder
Now, distance of cylinder = 20 cm
Therefore, length of wire in one round = circumference of base of the cylinder
= 2r =
Length of wire for covering the whole surface of cylinder = length of wire in 60 rounds
Radius of copper wire = = 0.2cm
Therefore, volume of wire = r2h
Weight of wire = volume × density = 474.122 × 8.68 = 4115.37 gm = 4.11537 kg
