Detailed Solution

Given, h= 1.2m = 120 cm
diameter of wire = 3 mm
= 3/10 cm
Number of round taken by copper wire
= h/d = 120/3/10 = 400
Length of wire = 2⊼r
= 2x22/7 x 5
= 31.4 cm
Total length of wire used in converting the curved surface of the cylinders
= 3.14x400
= 12560 cm
= 125.6 m
mass of wire = length density
= 12560x8.88
= 111532.8 gm
= 111.533 kg
Option 1 is correct.
