the mass of fiber that can be spun in a given time period, we need to know the production rate of the fiber, which is the mass of fiber produced per unit time. To find the production rate, we can divide the mass of fiber produced by the time it takes to produce it.

For example, if it takes 1 hour to produce 1 kilogram of fiber, the production rate is 1 kilogram per hour.

If we know the production rate, we can then multiply it by the time period for which we want to calculate the mass of fiber produced. For example, if the production rate is 1 kilogram per hour and we want to know the mass of fiber produced in 2 hours, we can calculate it as follows:

mass of fiber produced = production rate * time period
= 1 kilogram/hour * 2 hours
= 2 kilograms

To calculate the mass of fiber produced in a given time period using the specific values given in the question, we can use the following formula:

mass of fiber produced = (mass of fiber produced / time it takes to produce it) * time period

For example, if it takes 0.5 hours to produce 1 kilogram of fiber and we want to know the mass of fiber produced in 1 hour, we can calculate it as follows:

mass of fiber produced = (1 kilogram / 0.5 hours) * 1 hour
= 2 kilograms
