Copper Cu wire

Copper wire with a diameter of 1 mm and a weight of 350 g is wound on a spool. Calculate its length if the copper density is p = 8.9 g/cm cubic.

Final Answer:

l =  5007 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} D=1\text{mm}\to \text{cm}=1:10\text{cm}=0.1\text{cm} \\ m=350\text{g} \\ \rho =8.9{\text{g/cm}}^3 \\ m=\rho V \\ V=m/\rho =350/8.9=\frac{3500}{89}\doteq 39.3258{\text{cm}}^3 \\ r=D/2=0.1/2=\frac{1}{20}=0.05\text{cm} \\ S=\pi \cdot r^2=3.1416\cdot 0.05^2\doteq 0.0079{\text{cm}}^2 \\ V=Sl \\ l=V/S=39.3258/0.0079=5007\text{cm} \end{gathered}$$
