A copper rod of diameter 1 cm and length 8 cm is drawn into a wire of length 18 m of uniform thickness. Find the thickness of the wire.

Answer» Note the volume of the material in both the shapes will be the same only.
Volume of rod1=volume of rod2
`pi(r_1)^2h_1=pi(r_2)^2h_2`
substituting values we get,
`1/2 xx1/2xx8=1800xxr_2^2`
=>`(r_2)=1/30 cm`thickness of wire=`2/30 cm`
