If the diameter of cross-section of a wire is decreased by 5% how much percent will the length be increased so that the volume remains the same?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

given , new`d(1-5/100) = 0.95d`
volume of wire =`pi r^2 l`
`= pi (d^2/4)l= pi/4 d^2 l`
volume of wire =`pi r^2 l'`
`= pi xx (0.95 d/2)^2 l'`
`= pi/4 xx 0.90 xx d^2 l'`
volume of wire initial = volume of wire final
`pi/4 d^2 l = pi/4(0.90)d^2l'`
