It depends on how much this "average" cow weighs and whether you're referring to the amount of ready-to-eat meat on a cow or the hot-carcass weight of that "average" cow. It also depends on whether you're referring to a "cow" or a cow, its type and breed.
A cow could be sold to a slaughter house for a few hundred dollars. The meat of a cow is around 6 dollars a pound and only 175 pounds on the average cow can be used.
The weight of the average cow hide is around 55 pounds. The weight of the average bull hide is around 72 pounds.
The average weight of an adult Jersey cow is around 900-1200 pounds.
A newborn baby cow typically weighs between 60-100 pounds.
The easiest rule of thumb is 50% of the live weight. This is not accurate, but close enough for general guessing. Another fact affecting this is what you plan to use: suet, intestines, organs. To some people these are waste. To others, they have very valuable uses.
The average cow weighs about 1,000 pounds and produces about 450 pounds of edible meat. By that estimate, it would take about 2,200 cows to produce 1 million pounds of product.

The number of beef cows in 2 pounds depends on the weight of each individual cow. On average, a beef cow can weigh between 1,000 to 1,500 pounds, so in 2 pounds you would have a fraction of a cow.
The average weight of an adult Jersey cow is around 900-1200 pounds.
I believe the average cow size in the US is right around 1250 pounds when sold. Feeder calves on average are sold around 650 to 750 pounds. Bulls average around 2000 lbs. All groups then go to a feedlot where they are made fatter and sold to the meat packers. That 650lb calf will typically weight anywhere from 1300 to 1800 finished weight.

Meat from a cow, obviously.

The average cow (not steer) weighs about 1400 pounds and generally is pretty solid, whereas the average stag (male deer) weighs about 200 pounds. If hitting a deer can wreck a car just use your imagination as to what a cow can do! P.S. I sincerely hope you're not taking aim at the cow!
No, a cow will not eat meat, although there will be some curious cow that would probably try it, cows do not and will not eat meat.
About 200 lbs/week. One of our cows gives about 90/day.
