To work out the mass of wire you need to know its volume. The wire is circular so that volume would just be the cross sectional area (pi * r^2) multiplied by the length of wire. Lets call the length L.
The equation is then volume = pi * radius^2 * L.
To get the mass of the wire we now multiply this equation by denstiy of the wire; that is how much the wire weighs per volume. Assuming the wire is steel this would be around 800Kg/m^3. So what you want to do is work out the volume as above, then multiply by 800, making sure that your units are consistant....ie lenght and radius in metres.

How do you calculate wall thickness of pen-stock pipe?
A penstock, with an internal diameter of 1.3 m, supplies water at a head equivalent to 127.6 kg/cm2. There is a possibility of 23per cent increase in the pressure due to transient conditions. The design stress and the efficiency of the joint may be assumed to be 1023 kg/cm2 and 35 per cent respectively.Calculate the approximate wall thickness of the penstock required
Formula to calculate weight of MS pipes per meter length?
Weight of pipe per Meter in Kg for MS Pipes = 3.14 * (Outer diameter of pipe in Mtr. - wall thickness in Mtr. ) * Wall Thickness in Mtr. * 7850
How does current flow during welding?
Think of electricity as water in a pipe. The larger the pipe the more water can flow thru. That is current = volume = amperage = amount of heat. Voltage can be compared to pressure in a pipe. That is drive/force. Most welding machines allow you to control the amperage but not the voltage.
How do you calculate electric cable copper weight?
wire weight = material_density * 3.14159 * (0.5 * cable_diameter)² * cable_length example for copper with 152 meter length: ---------------------------------------- material_density for copper = 8960 kg/m³ cable_diameter=0.006 meter cable_length=152 meter weight of wire = 8960 kg/m³ * 3.14159 * (0.5 * 0.006)² * 152 = 38.51 kg lenght and diameter must be calculated in "meters" density must be in "kg/m³"

What is the SWL of FSWR?
Flexible steel wire rope (FSWR) To calculate the SWL in kilograms of FSWR square the rope diameter (D) in millimetres (mm) and multiply by 8. Formula: SWL (kg) = D2(mm) x 8 For example: Rope dia (D) = 12 mm SWL(kg) =D2 (mm)x8 = D (mm) x D (mm) x 8 = 12 x 12 x 8 = 1152 kg SWL (t) = 1.15 tonnes The above equation can be reversed to calculate the diameter (D) in millimetres of FSWR needed to lift a given load. To do this, divide the load (L) in kilograms by 8 and find the square root of the result. Formula: D(mm) = √L(kg) 8 For example: Load = 1152 kg D (mm) = √1152 ÷ 8 = √144 = 12 (mm) Therefore a FSWR sling of at least 12 mm in diameter is required to lift a 1152 kg load for a straight lift.

How do you calculate the velocity of a transverse wave in a wire if the wire is under a tension of 1200N and each meter of wire has a mass of 10g?
The velocity of a transverse wave in a wire can be calculated using the formula: v = √(T/μ), where v is the velocity of the wave, T is the tension in the wire (1200N in this case), and μ is the linear mass density of the wire (10g/m or 0.01 kg/m in this case). Plugging the values into the formula gives v = √(1200N / 0.01 kg/m) = 110 m/s.

What is the weight of rebar whose dimensions are 25MM diameter and 12meter length?
The weight of rebar can be calculated using the formula: weight = (diameter^2 * length * 0.006165) kg, where the diameter is in mm and length is in meters. Substituting the given values, the weight of the rebar would be approximately 22.98 kg.
