A sphere of diameter 6.0cm is moulded into a thin uniform wire of diameter 0.2mm. Calculate the length of the wire in metres (Take π = 22/7) *

2025m

Explanation:

Since all materials of the sphere is made to a cylindrical wire, it implies the volume of the sphere material is same as that of the cylinder. This is expressed mathematically thus.

Volume of Sphere= volume of cylinder

4/3 ×π×R^3= π× r2× L

4/3 ×R^3= r^2×L

Hence

L = 3/4 × R^3/ r^2

But R = 6.0/2 = 3.0cm{ Diameter is twice raduis}

r= 0.2/2 = 0.1mm=>0.01cm{ Diameter is twice raduis and unit converted by dividing by 10 since 10mm = 1cm}

Substituting R and r into the expression for L, we have :

L = 3/4 × 3^3/ 0.01^2= 0.75 ×27/0.0001 = 202500cm

202500/100= 2025m{ we divide by 100 because 100cm=1m}
