    Answer: 5,559.89 kilograms

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

    Mass = π/4 (diameter) ^2 (height) (density)

    Replacing with the values given and solving for M (mass)

    M = π/4 (0.52) ^2 (34) (770) = 5,559.89 kg.

    The mass of the trunk is 5,559.89 kilograms

    Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
