Detailed Solution

It is given that, a circle of diameter 10 cm subtends an angle of 144 at the center.
Radius, r=5cm. We know that,
Arc length = θ360×2πr.
Here, θ=144° and r=5 cm. Then,
Arc length = 144360×2π×5
=4π cm Therefore, length of the arc of the sector is 4π cm.
Hence, option (2) is correct.
