The problem asks for the total mass of 105 cows, given that the average mass of one cow is 410 kilograms. The answer should be in scientific notation.

### Steps:
1. First, calculate the total mass of the cows: 
   \[
   105 \times 410 = 43,050 \, \text{kilograms}
   \]

2. Now, express 43,050 in scientific notation:
   \[
   43,050 = 4.305 \times 10^4 \, \text{kilograms}
   \]

So, the scientific notation for the mass of 105 cows is:
\[
\boxed{4.305 \times 10^4} \, \text{kilograms}
\]

1. How do you convert any large number to scientific notation?
2. What is the general form of a number in scientific notation?
3. How would you express a much smaller number, like 0.004305, in scientific notation?
4. How do the number of significant digits affect scientific notation?
5. What is the purpose of using scientific notation for large numbers?

**Tip**: When converting a number to scientific notation, always move the decimal point to the right of the first significant figure, and count the places moved to determine the exponent of 10.

At a certain zoo, the average mass of one cow is measured to be 410 kilograms. Use scientific notation to express the mass of 105 cows.
