The total mass of a variable density rod is given by Where m = mass, p (x)

Question:

The total mass of a variable density rod is given by


4 6. X. m 10 3.89 3.80 3.60 3.41 3.30 p. g/cm 4.00 3.95 103 100 A, cm? 110 120 133 106 150


Where m = mass, p (x) = density, Ac(x) = cross-sectional area, x = distance along the rod and L = the total length of the rod. The following data has been measured for a 10-m length rod. Determine the mass in kilograms to the best possibleaccuracy.
