How many rolls to do a five strand barbwire for 180 acres?

Well, first you need to know the length of barbed wire in a roll. Then you need to know the perimeter of the fence (in feet or metres) you are going to build around that 180 acres. Then, calculate it this way: (length of barbed wire in one roll) x (perimeter of fence of 180 acres) = (total length of wire needed for "n" ft. (or m) of fence perimeter of one strand) (total length of wire needed for "n" ft.(or m) fence perimeter of one strand) x 5 = (Grand total length of wire needed to fence 180 acres) (Grand total length of wire needed to fence 180 acres) / (length of barbed wire in one roll) = (# of rolls needed for a five-strand barbed wire fence for 180 acres)


How do you find a length of a fence that has 10 meters of circumference and is around 2 meters away from a tower?

Your question is not clear or I am missing something?The length of the fence (measured around its perimeter) is the circumference and that is your 10 metres.Then again, a fence that surrounds a tower with a radius of 2 metres (radius measured from the centre of the tower) will have a circumference of:Pi x 2r = Pi x 4 = 12.566 metres.


Is Perimeter a distance around an object?

The perimeter is the border or outer boundary around a two dimensional figure and is the length of such a boundary - a field for example, a perimeter fence


How do you find the square feet of a fence?

Measure the length and the height of the proposed fence. Multiply the length in feet times the height in feet for the answer: total square feet of fence fabric needed. There are also other factors to consider such as whether there will be a gate.


Would you use meters to measure a fence or another metric unit?

Metre to measure its length. Possibly centimetres to measure its height if a garden fence but metres if a security fence.

A pool is 50m long and 25m wide A fence is built parallel to the pool and 10m from each side What is the perimeter of the fence?

If the fence is parallel and extends 10m from each end of the length of the pool, add 20m to the length of the pool to find the length of the fence; find the width of the fence in the same manner. Hence, 50 + 20 = 70m (length of fence); 25 + 20 = 45m (width of fence). 2(L + W) = Perimeter, so 2 x 115m = 230m perimeter
