The formula to calculate the Pumpkin Weight (W) is:
\[ W = D^2 \times H \times 0.7854 \]
Where:
Let's say the diameter of the pumpkin (\( D \)) is 10 inches and the height of the pumpkin (\( H \)) is 12 inches. Using the formula:
\[ W = D^2 \times H \times 0.7854 = 10^2 \times 12 \times 0.7854 = 942.48 \text{ lbs} \]
So, the Pumpkin Weight (\( W \)) is approximately 942.48 lbs.
A pumpkin weight refers to the mass or heaviness of a pumpkin. This can vary greatly depending on the type of pumpkin and its size. Typically, pumpkins used for carving and decoration during Halloween can weigh between 6 to 18 pounds, while larger varieties used for competitions can weigh several hundred pounds. The current world record for the heaviest pumpkin is over 2,600 pounds.
