A thin wire has length of 21.7 cm and radius 0.46 mm. Calculate the volume of the wire to correct significant figures?

Explanation

To solve the problem of calculating the volume of a thin wire given its length and radius, we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Convert the radius to centimeters
The radius is given in millimeters (0.46 mm). We need to convert this to centimeters since the length is given in centimeters.

\[ \text{Radius in cm} = \frac{0.46 \text{ mm}}{10} = 0.046 \text{ cm} \]
