What is Traditional Authority
postnew [5]

Answer:

Traditional Authority is when laws and ideas and the way of life in the places are largely ruled by whatever the custom of that time is.

So if the custom was to have red houses with blue roofs then the law would be you are only allowed to have red houses with blue roofs.

Does that make sense I hope it does?

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.
