10 turns of wire are closely wound around a pencil as shown in the figure. when measured using a scale as shown, the length of total turns is obtained 25mm. then a) What is the thickness of the wire? b) Express the thickness of the wire in centimetre. please write correct answer

a. The thickness of the wire is 2.5 mm.

b. The wire is 0.25 cm thick.

Explanation:

Number of turns of the wire = 10

The length of total turns = 25 mm

a. The thickness of the wire can be determined by;

thickness of the wire =

                           =

                           = 2.5 mm

Therefore, the wire is 2.5 mm thick.

b. To determine the thickness of the wire in centimetre;

10 mm = 1 cm

So that,

2.5 mm = x

x  =

   = 0.25 cm

The wire is 0.25 cm thick.
