The radius of the cylinder before deformation is 7.5mm
<h3>Deformation of an object</h3>
From the given question, we are given that;
cold work radius of the cylinder is 10mm
Ductility = 25%
Determine the radius before deformation
Radius before deformation = (1- 0.5) + 10
Radius before deformation = 0.75 * 10
Radius before deformation = 7.5mm
Hence the radius of the cylinder before deformation is 7.5mm
