Calculate the total mass of water in kg on Earth's surface from the following data: total planetary surface area: 510,066,000 km
irinina [24]

Answer:

The total mass of water in on Earth's surface is 3.61419\times 10^{22} kg.

Explanation:

Total planetary surface area = T = 510,066,000 km^2

Total land area of planet = L = 148,647,000 km^2

Total water area of planet = W

T = L + W

510,066,000 km^2=148,647,000 km^2-W

W=510,066,000 km^2-148,647,000 km^2=361,419,000 km^2

Volume = Area × Depth

Volume of water on earth = V

V= 361,419,000 km^2\times 100 km^=36,141,900,000 km^3

km^3=10^{12} L

V=36,141,900,000 km^3=36,141,900,000 \times 10^{12} L

Total mass of total water on the earth = M

Density of the water,D = 1 g/mL = 0.001 kg/0.001 L=1 kg/L

1 g - 0.001 kg

1 mL = 0.001 L

D=\frac{M}{V}

M=D\times V

M =1 kg/L\times 36,141,900,000 \times 10^{12} L=3.61419\times 10^{22} kg

The total mass of water in on Earth's surface is 3.61419\times 10^{22} kg.

<em>*100% CORRECT ANSWERS</em>

__________________________________________________

Question 1

A chicken farmer stores all of the chicken manure from his farm in large piles next to the river. Throughout the spring and summer, the piles of manure are exposed to rain and wind. The farmer finally removes the manure in the fall. What two types of pollution are demonstrated in this real world example?

Nutrient

Bacterial

Question 2

Instead of riding his bike, a college student drives to class every day. He also drives to the store, to friends' houses, and everywhere else. Every time he fills up his tank, a little bit of gasoline drips to the ground. The car's exhaust contains nitrogen oxides, which contribute to nitrogen levels in nearby water bodies. What two types of pollution are demonstrated in this real world example?

Toxic

Nutrient

Question 3

By rotating their crops, farmers can reduce their dependence on fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides. Despite the benefits of crop rotation, many farmers only grow one or two crops year after year. This increases their use of fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides. What two types of pollution are demonstrated in this real world example?

Toxic

Nutrient

Question 4

A new mall and movie theater are being built on the outskirts of Suburbia. Trees and brush are cleared away, the land is bulldozed, and a silt fence is installed across part of the development. However, construction is delayed for a year, leaving the land exposed to the elements. What type of pollution is demonstrated in this real world example?

Sediment

Question 5

A new wastewater treatment plant opens in an area where raw sewage used to be dumped directly into a bay. What type of pollution will be reduced the most by the new plant?

Bacterial

Question 6

After buying a new house by the lake, the Harrison's decided to cut down the trees and bushes that were blocking their view. This left an open area with no vegetation between the house and the lake. What type of pollution is demonstrated in this real world example?

Sediment

Toxic

Question 9

In a large new housing complex, many families do not practice water conservation. They take long showers, over-water their lawns, and wash their cars frequently. The local water treatment facility is old and was not designed to handle the increased amount of water, causing untreated sewage to be released into the environment. What two types of pollution are demonstrated in this real world example?

Nutrient

Bacterial

Question 10

Many school cafeterias serve food on paper products (paper plates, paper cups, cardboard trays, etc.) rather than using reusable plates, glasses, and trays. In many cases, these paper products are not made from recycled paper. What type of pollution is demonstrated in this real world example?

A new development is being built on the outskirts of a city, near a stream. A parking lot is constructed on one side of the stream, and land is cleared for a playground on the other side. Cars in the parking lot sometimes leak oil and antifreeze onto the pavement. What two types of pollution are demonstrated in this real world example?
