Question

The global surface water area is 361, 132,000 square metres. Calculate the volume of water needed to cause a 3mm in sea level.

Answer 1

The volume of water is 396 cubic meter.

Explanation:

Area of water, A = 132000 square meter

Height, h = 3 mm = 0.003 m

The volume of water is given by

V = Area x height

V = 132000 x 0.003

V = 396 cubic meter.
