The length of the string in cm is; 20 cm
We are told that the string is wound symmetrically around a circular rod.
Now, the circumference of the rod is 4 cm and length is 15 cm.
Now, circumference is also the length of a circle. Thus, one wound of the string will be equal to the circumference of the rod.
Thus, one wound = 4 cm
Since the string makes 5 turns about the rod, then;
Length of string = 5 × 4 = 20 cm
