Please help me in the calculation of the following. The formula is r= ax(theta) & theta in radians. Required: The length of the curve at the end of 7.5 turns of the spiral given that the value of \"a\" = 0.8mm. Thanking you in anticipation.

Dear Anantha,

After each turn the angle bound will be 2 * pi radians therefore the after 7.5 turns the angle swept will be 15* pi radians ,

Thus by substituting the values we can evaluate the required length,

Best Of Luck...!!!!
