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 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 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
