Assume the Pacific Ocean has a surface area of 1.5 x 10^8 km^2 and an average depth of 3400 m. Calculate the volume of water in the ocean in liters.
Homework Answers
As we already know, volume of a body can be calculated by the formula : Area of cross section * Thickness of cross section
Therefore, Volume of water in ocean = 1.5e8km2 * 3400 m = 1.5*108 * 106 m2 * 3400m [As 1km2 = 106m2, 1.5e8km2 is converted]
= 1.5*1014 * 3400 m3
= 5100*1014 m3 = 5.1*1011 m3
Since 1m3 = 1000L,
5.1*1011 m3 = 5.1*1011 * 1000 L
= 5.1*1014 L
Please let me know if you have any doubts. If not, please leave a positive rating :)

Between 1955 and 1995, the ocean temperature (Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian) increased by 0.06 C. The circumference of the Earth is 40 million meters. 71% of the Earth’s surface is covered with water. The average ocean depth is 3000 m. The heat capacity and density of sea water is 3850 J/kg-C and 1040 kg/m3, respectively. The average solar power on the Earth is 173 x 1015 W. Estimate how much energy was absorbed by the ocean [EJ] and determine the...

The bulk modulus of water is 2.2 x 10^9N/m^2. By how much does a cubic meter of water decrease in volume when it is taken from the surface of the ocean down to a depth of 1.0 km, where the pressure is 9.8 x 10^6 greater than at the surface?

A research ship in the Pacific Ocean is testing a new method of
detecting pollutants in ocean water (nwater=1.3330). Their
experimental apparatus includes two lasers which hang over the side
of the ship and point downward into the water (the lasers
themselves are suspended in the air above the surface of the
ocean). One laser is violet (λ=400 nm, αH2O = 0.0044 m-1) and the
other is red (λ=700 nm, αH2O = 0.6 m-1). Both lasers are very
bright, with...
