The volume of wood in a tree is jointly proportional to the height and the square of the distance around the tree trunk, so we can write the following equation:

V = k * h * g^2

where:

• V is the volume of wood in cubic feet
• k is a constant of proportionality
• h is the height of the tree in feet
• g is the distance around the tree trunk in feet

We can use the given information to solve for k:

k * 22 * 3^2 = 15.84

........

k = 0.08

Now that we know k, we can use it to calculate the volume of wood in a tree that is 36 feet tall having a measurement of 6 feet around the trunk:

V = 0.08 * 36 * 6^2

V = 16,200 ft^3

Therefore, the volume of wood obtained from the second tree is 16,200 cubic feet.
