Answer:
There are 76728.2 pounds of snow on the roof
Explanation:
To determine how many pounds of snow are on the roof,
First we will determine the mass of the snow in grams.
From the question,
Density of snow = 0.35 g/cm³
From
Density = Mass / Volume
To determine the mass, we will first find the volume.
From the question, a flat roof that is 35 by 43 feet has 28 inches of snow on it, that is, the height of the snow on the roof is 28 inches.
Area of the roof = 35 ft × 43 ft = 1505 ft²
Volume of the snow = Area of the roof × Height of the snow
Height of the snow = 28 inches
12 inches = 1 foot
∴ 28 inches = 28/12 feet = 2.3333 ft
Hence,
Volume of the snow = 1505 ft² × 2.3333 ft = 3511.62 ft³
Volume of the snow = 3511.62 ft³
This is the volume of the snow in cubic feet
Now, we will convert cubic feet (ft³) to cubic centimeter (cm³)
1 ft = 30.48 cm
and 1 ft³ = 30.48³ cm³ = 28316.84659 cm³.
If 1 ft³ = 28316.84659 cm³
∴ 3511.62 ft³ will be 3511.62 × 28316.84659 cm³ = 99438004.83 cm³
Hence, Volume of snow = 99438004.83 cm³
Now, we can determine mass of snow in grams
From
Density = Mass / Volume
Mass = Density × Volume
Mass = 0.35 g/cm³ × 99438004.83 cm³
Mass = 34803301.69 g
Now, we will convert the mass from grams to pounds
1 pound = 453.592 grams
If 453.592 grams = 1 pound
Then, 34803301.69 g will be 34803301.69 / 453.592 pounds = 76728.2 pounds
Hence, there are 76728.2 pounds of snow on the roof.
