A copper pipe, used for plumbing from the water main to a house, is 4 meters long and has a circular cross-section 2.8 cm in diameter.

There is a 2 cm diameter hole in the center of the cross-section for the entire length of the rod. What is the volume of copper in the rod in cubic inches?

The density of copper is 559lb_m/ft^3. What is the mass of the copper pipe in pounds?

The volume of the hose is equal to the difference of the areas of the inner and outer circles with area equal to pi d^2 / 4 multiplied by height of hose, 4 meters. The annulus area is equal to 3.02 cm2. The volume is equal to 0.0012 cub, m. mass is 0.0012 cub, m times density. answer is 0.67 ft3.
