answer is
20m
1000cm2=2π×radius×height
Let the no. of turns the wire had made on the surface be n.
For n turns, the wire should make upto 5n mm or 0.005n m height
Since the wire should completely cover the cylinder,
∴ Height of cylinder =0.005n m
Let the length of wire needed be lm
l=2π×radius×n
nl=2π×radius
1000cm2=0.1m2=2π×radius×height
0.1=(nl)×0.005n
l=0.0050.1=20m
