If the radius of the earth is 6400.0 km and the atmosphere is 10.0 km high,then the volume of air around the earth is A) 5.135 $\times$ 10⁺¹⁸ m³. B) 3.605 $\times$ 10⁺¹⁶ m³. C) 5.14 $\times$ 10⁺¹⁸ m³. D) 6.211 $\times$ 10⁺¹² m³.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The volume of air around the Earth is the difference between the volume of the Earth with the atmosphere and the volume of the Earth without the atmosphere. Using the formula for the volume of a sphere, V = 4/3 * π * r^3, and calculating for both radii (6400 km and 6410 km), the difference gives approximately 5.135 * 10^18 m^3.
