Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Measurement: Problem 25

During heavy rain, a section of a mountainside measuring 2.5 km horizontally, 0.80 km up along the slope, and 2.0 m deep slips into a valley in a mud slide. Assume that the mud ends up uniformly distributed over a surface area of the valley measuring 0.40 km Γ— 0.40 km and that mud has a density of 1900 kg/mΒ³. What is the mass of the mud sitting above a 4.0 mΒ² area of the valley floor?

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: , a, 2.5 km, 0.80 km, 2.0 m, 0.40 km, 1900 kg
