Answer:
a) 2,400,000 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangular freshwater fish tank is 60.00 cm long, 200.00 mm wide, and 200.00 m deep. What is the mass of the water it can hold?
Step 1
We make sure the dimensions of the fish tank have the same units which is cm
Length = 60.00 cm
Width = 200.00 mm
1 mm = 0.1 cm
200.00mm =
200.00mm × 0.1 cm/1 mm
Width = 20 cm
Depth = 200 m
1 m =100 cm
200m =
= 200m × 100cm/1m
Depth = 20000cm
Step 2
Volume of a rectangular tank = Length × Breadth × Depth
= 60cm × 20cm × 20000cm
= 24000000cm³
Since = 1 cm³ = 1ml
Volume of the rectangular fish tank = 24,000,000ml
Step 3
The density of freshwater is 1.00 g/mL.
Density = Mass/Volume
Mass = Volume × Density
Mass of water the tank can hold = 24,000,000ml × 1.00g/ml
= 24,000,000grams
Therefore, the mass of water the rectangular fish tank can hold = 24,000,000 grams
