To find the radius of the dilated circle when you scale up by a factor of 50, you simply multiply the original radius by that factor.

The original radius of the circle is 2 mm. Therefore, when dilated by a factor of 50:

\[
\text{Dilated radius} = \text{Original radius} \times \text{Scale factor} = 2 \, \text{mm} \times 50 = 100 \, \text{mm}
\]

So, the radius of the dilated circle will be **100 mm**.
