![### Calculation of the Weight of Kaminsky's Bronze Sculpture
Kaminsky's bronze sculpture is 5 feet in diameter, which is approximately 1.524 meters. If the sculpture was made of solid bronze, its weight could be approximated using the density of bronze.
The formula to find the mass (m) in kilograms using the density (d) and volume (V) is given by:
\[
d = 7700 \, \text{kg/m}^3
\]
The volume \( V \), in cubic meters, the mass \( m \), in kilograms, and applying the formula:
\[
d = \frac{m}{V}
\]
Approximately, how many pounds would the sculpture weigh if it was made of solid bronze?
(1 kg ≈ 2.205 lb)
#### Graph and Diagram Explanation
Below the text, there is an image of a large spherical sculpture placed in an outdoor setting with palm trees and buildings visible in the background. Beneath the sphere, there appears to be a pedestal that supports the sculpture. It is surrounded by a circular patterned ground, which may symbolize a part of the installation or an aesthetic feature of the location. There are people around the area, suggesting it is a public space.
This visual accompanies the text to provide a real-world example of a sculpture potentially made from bronze and to illustrate the size and environment where such a sculpture might be placed. The details given in the text above help in calculating the theoretical weight of this sculpture if it were made of solid bronze.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/2341670b-b058-481d-a7e7-89b8beb6d704/c325af2d-bd86-4e2c-a562-a36b2df366b9/yvpwtqe_processed.jpeg)
