How to Calculate and Solve for Total Mass Determination | Gravity

The image above represents total mass determination. To calculate total mass determination, two essential parameters are needed, and these parameters are Maximum Gravity (Δg_max) and Half Width (x_1/2).

The formula for calculating total mass determination:

M ≃ 255Δg_max(x_1/2)²

Where:

M = Total Mass
Δg_max = Maximum Gravity
x_1/2 = Half Width

Let’s solve an example;
Find the total mass determination when the maximum gravity is 10 and the half width is 6.

This implies that;

Δg_max = Maximum Gravity = 10
x_1/2 = Half Width = 6

M ≃ 255Δg_max(x_1/2)²
That is, M ≃ 255(10)(6)²
M ≃ 255(10)(36)
M ≃ 91800

Therefore, the total mass determination is 91800 kg.
