Question

uni S Halliday, F 10e gnment Antarctica is roughly semicircula, with a radius of 2.00102 km (see contain? (Iignore the curvature of Earth.) the fiqure). The average thickness of its ice cover is 3.0010 m. How many cubic centimeters of ice does Antarctica 8000 m Units By accessing this Question Assistance, you will learn while you earn points based on the Point Potential Policy set by your instructor Question Attempts: 0 of 3 used SAVE FOR LATER Earn Maximum Points available only if you answer this question correctly in two attempts or less 1:21 AM

Explanation / Answer

Given,

Radius of continent, r = 2000 km = 2 x 108 cm

Thickness of ice, h = 3000 m = 3 x 105 cm

So volume, V = (pi x r2 x h) / 2

= (3.14 x (2 x 108)2 x 3 x 105) / 2

V = 1.88 x 1022 cm3
