During heavy rain, a section of a mountainside measuring 1.6 km horizontally (perpendicular to the slope), 1.2 km up along the slope, and 2.9 m deep slips into a valley in a mud slide. Assume that the mud ends up uniformly distributed over a surface area of the valley measuring 0.62 km x 0.62 km and that the mass of a cubic meter of mud is 1900 kg. What is the mass of the mud sitting above a 5.6 m² area of the valley floor? Number i 35055.337 Units kg
