The total amount of fresh water on earth is 3.73 *10^{8} km^3

 Hence the volume of water v= 3.73*10^{8} km^{3}

we are asked to convert this into cubic metre and cubic feet.

we know that 1 km = 1000 m.

                     1 km^3 = [10^3 m]^3

                     1 km^3 = 10^{9} m^{3}

       we have been given  v = 3.73 *10^{8} km^3

                                            v = 3.73 *10^{8} *10^{9} m^{3}      

                                              v = 3.73*10^{17} m^{3}  [ANS]

Now we have to  convert it into cubic feet

we know that one metre =  3.28083 feet

                   1 m^{3} =[3.28083feet]^{3}

                    1 m^{3} =35.3143472 feet^{3}

         Hence  v =3.73*10^{17} m^{3}

                       = 3.73*10^{17} *35.3143472 feet^{3}

                  ⇒  v = 131.7225*10^{17} feet^{3}  [ANS]

One km^3 is 1,000,000,000 m^3=10^9 m^3 hence 3.73 10^8 km^3 is 3.73 10^17 m^3

One meter is 3.28084 feet hence 1 m^3 is (3.28084)^3 feet

Thus 3.73 10^8 km^3 is 3.73*35.315 10^17 = 132 cubic feet

A 50kg girl is playing soccer. She runs towards the ball at a speed of 7 m/s. How much kinetic energy does she have as she runs
stepladder [879]
The calculation for kinetic energy is this

KE = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2(50)(7^2)

KE = 1/2(49•50)

KE = 1225 kgm^2/s^2.

Or simply 1225 J.

She possess this much energy when she runs.

You walk from your bedroom, 25m to the mailbox, and then walk 25m back to your bedroom. What is your total distance? What is you
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Distance is 50m

Displacement is 0m

Explanation:

Distance is based on the amount of length you covered, regardless of where you end.

Displacement only considered where you started and where you ended, which is at the same spot in this case. Therefore, no displacement.
