Word Problem

[craziibabii90210]

Given:
Earth's oceans cover a total surface area of about 340 million square kilometers.
If all the ice in the Antarctic ice sheet melted 25.08 km cubed would be represented.

Suppose all the water from the melted ice flowed into Earths oceans. Assume that the total surface area of the oceans does not change. How much would sea level rise? Give answer is km, m, and ft

\(\displaystyle Volume\;of\;Cube\;=\;\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}\)

\(\displaystyle Surface\;Area\;of\;Cube\;=\;4\pi r^{2}\)

Nothing like a good, politically motivated problem.

 

[lookagain]

\(\displaystyle Volume\;of\;sphere\;=\;\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}\)

\(\displaystyle Surface\;Area\;of\;sphere\;=\;4\pi r^{2}\)

Correction in the above quote box

Cube with really round corners.

Where did I get "cube"? Weird.

Thanks for the repair.
