Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(144\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(1=\rho \frac{\ell}{ A }\)

\(1=\frac{\rho \times 31.4}{\frac{\pi(2.4)^{2}}{4}}\)

\(\frac{\pi(2.4)^{2}}{4}=\rho \times 314\)

\(\frac{2.4 \times 2.4}{4}=\rho \times 10\)

\(\frac{0.6 \times 2.4}{10}=\rho\)

\(\frac{1.44}{10}=\rho\)

\(0.144=\rho\)

\(144 \times 10^{-3}=\rho\)
