9-11 inches long
20 cm
The answer varies from one manufacturer to another - especially if they are domestic spaghetti makers.
Not really. The original grain could be consider a basic, wheat in this case, but not spaghetti.
The most common noodle is the spaghetti noodle. The average standard length of an uncooked spaghetti noodle is about 14 inches.
Several feet, if it is proper spaghetti. The supermarket stuff is around 10 inches.
Inches
A standard spaghetti stick is typically about 25-30 centimeters (10-12 inches) in length and has a diameter of around 2 millimeters (0.08 inches). This size can vary slightly depending on the brand and type of pasta, but most dried spaghetti falls within this range. When cooked, spaghetti can soften and expand, but its length generally remains similar.

Yes about 1 inch. That's because the spaghetti originally is contracted and hard. And heating normally expands a substance, so when the spaghetti is boiled, the heat supplied causes it to expand a little.
Spaghetti is originally hard and contracted. When heat is supplied to any object, most of them expand. so, when heat is supplied to spaghetti, it expands. However, it is important to note that expansion due to increase in temperature (Thermal expansion) is a very small. So, spaghetti expands only by about an inch.
The length of spaghetti is primarily determined by the pasta manufacturers, who establish standard sizes for consistency and cooking purposes. Traditionally, spaghetti is about 25-30 cm (10-12 inches) long, which allows for even cooking and ease of handling. Additionally, cultural and culinary preferences influence the length, as different regions may have their own variations. Ultimately, it's a combination of tradition, practicality, and standardization within the pasta industry.
The formula for extension (lengthening) of a material under tensile stress is given by: Extension = Original Length x Strain = Original Length x (Final Length - Original Length) / Original Length. It represents the change in length of a material when subjected to a stretching force.
