The formula to calculate the weight of the wood in tons is:
\[ T = \frac{C \times 128 \times D}{2000} \]
Where:
A cord of wood is a unit of measure for wood volume, traditionally used in the U.S. and Canada for firewood and pulpwood. A full cord is a stack of wood that is 4 feet high, 4 feet wide, and 8 feet long, totaling 128 cubic feet.
Let's assume the following values:
Step 1: Calculate the volume in cubic feet:
\[ \text{Volume} = 2 \times 128 = 256 \text{ cubic feet} \]
Step 2: Calculate the weight in tons:
\[ \text{Weight} = \frac{256 \times 50}{2000} = 6.4 \text{ tons} \]
Therefore, the weight of the wood is 6.4 tons.
