उत्तर
Given: r = 2 m
Area = A = 4 × 4 = 16 mm2 = 16 × 10−6 m2
Volume of ball = Volume enclosed by rope.
`4/3 pi` (radius)3 = Area of cross-section of rope × length of rope.
∴ length of rope l = `(4/3 pir^3)/A`
∴ l = `(4 xx 3.142 xx 2^3)/(3 xx 16 xx 10^-6)`
= `(cancel4 xx 3.142 xx 2 xx 2 xx 2)/(3 xx cancel16 xx 10^(-6))`
= `(3.142 xx cancel8)/(3 xx cancel4 xx 10^(-6))`
= `(3.142 xx 2)/(3) xx 10^6`m
≈ 2 × 106 m.
∴ Total length of rope to the nearest order of magnitude = 106 m = 103 km.

Precise measurements of physical quantities are a need of science. For example, to ascertain the speed of an aircraft, one must have an accurate method to find its positions at closely separated instants of time. This was the actual motivation behind the discovery of radar in World War II. Think of different examples in modern science where precise measurements of length, time, mass etc. are needed. Also, wherever you can, give a quantitative idea of the precision needed.
