The formula to calculate the weight per foot is:
\[ \text{WPF} = \frac{\text{W}}{\text{L}} \]
Where:
Let's consider an example:
Using the formula to calculate the weight per foot:
\[ \text{WPF} = \frac{100}{20} = 5 \text{ lbs/ft} \]
This demonstrates that with a total weight of 100 lbs and a total length of 20 ft, the weight per foot is 5 lbs/ft. ✅
