Let the length of the wire be h.

Radius = 1 mm = 1 cm. Then,
2 20

22 x 1 x 1 x h = 66.
7 20 20

h = 66 x 20 x 20 x 7 = 8400 cm = 84 m.

@Adil.

Formula of volume of cylinder is Pi * r * r * h.

@Rashmi, @Megha.

1cm=10mm.
? =1/2mm.
Cross multiplication

1/2 * 1/10.
= 1/2 * 10.
= 1/20 m.

We know that d = 2r then r = d/2mm and here d is given 1mm and 1mm convert in cm then r = 1/20cm.
