The total length of optical fibre is L = 8850 km * 6 = 53100 km one strand of optical fibre weighs 0.00119 lb/m = 0.0005398 kg/m = 0.5398 kg/km The total mass of the cable is m = 0.5398 kg/km * 53100 km = 28663 kg
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! There’ll be much hollying and jollying, but there will also be plenty…
