About 1.5 lb per linear foot.
A Circular Mil is the area of a circle with a diameter of 1/1000 of an inch. The first "M" actually stands for 1000, and "MCM" is interchangeable with "kCM." 500 MCM has an cross-sectional area of 253.4 sq mm (2.534 sqcm, a density of 8.96 g/cc. 1 foot is 30 cm. 2.534*8.96*30 = 692 g = 1.52 lb.
Of course if you're using 500MCM cable you're probably installing it in a 3-phase system, with possibly a full-size neutral, so for total runs, you may have a 3-4 multiplier for a total weight of a single set run.
500mcm 37 strand copper wire = 1.544lbs/ft.
The weight of 350mcm copper wire is 1080 lbs/1000 feet. This relates to 1.08 lbs/ft.

how much copper is in copper wire
A 1000 feet of 300 MCM wire weighs 1021 pounds. It is easy to calculate from there.
500mcm 37 strand copper wire = 1.544lbs/ft.
Yes, if it is not an insulated wire. If it is bare copper it is always ground. But the hot and neutral wire are also copper, they are just insulated.
Enameled copper wire is copper wire coated by a insulating paint usually colored red. The paint is much thin rubber/plastic sleeves that other wires have, yet provide almost the same amount of insulation. Enameled wire is primarily used in the construction of electromagnets since it allows more loops to be packed into a smaller volume.
its 10000kg
it depends how big the foot is.
It is impossible to give an answer. For instance, a metre of copper wire, or a metre of a copper ingot?
Someone would need to know what gauge the wire is to answer that.
what is the weight of 300 MCM Copper wire
how much copper is in copper wire
There is not enough copper in a foot of cat5 cable to make reclaiming it worthwhile. At best, the wire will be no more than 5% copper. Additionally, opening the cable releases fumes that could potentially be toxic.
1.385 pounds per foot
0.986 pounds (about 1 pound).[1] Edit: I believe the correct answer is 101.18 feet of 12 gauge cooper wire weights 2 pounds. The American Wire Gauge (AWG) Table indicates 50.59 feet per pound. The second answer is correct.
Depends on the thicknes of the wire. About three pounds, according to this site: http://www.rjleahy.com/Store/wire/cwi.htm See second chart on left... 10 ga copper wire is about 33 feet per pound.
