To calculate the weight of a mild steel plate, you should know its dimensions (length, width, and thickness) and the density of mild steel.
Formula is:-
Weight = Length x Width x Thickness x Density
Where:
If your dimensions are in other units, make sure to convert them to meters before using the formula. Here's an example calculation:
Let's say you have a mild steel plate with the following dimensions:
Length = 1.5 meters
Width = 1 meter
Thickness = 0.02 meters (20 mm)
Density of mild steel = 7850 kg/m³
Weight = 1.5 m x 1 m x 0.02 m x 7850 kg/m³ = 235.5 kg
So, the weight of the mild steel plate is approximately 235.5 kilograms.
