A quarter circle is an arc formed by one quarter of the full circle. An infinite spiral is built from quarter circles with an increasing radius. The radius of the first quarter circle is \(4\, \mathrm{cm}\). The radius of each quarter circle in the spiral is one half of the radius of the previous quarter circle. Find the total length of the spiral.

Consider the square of the side \(4\, \mathrm{cm}\). The second square is inscribed into this first square by joining the centers of all sides. In a similar way, the third square is inscribed into the second square by joining the centers of the sides of the second square and this process continues up to infinity. Find the sum of the perimeters of all squares.
