Suppose 3.0 cubic meter of oil is spilled into the ocean. Find the area of the resulting slick, assuming that it is one molecule thick, and that each molecule occupies a cube 0.50 μm on a side.
Let the spill has thickness , and the area of the resulting slick is . The resulting slick can have any shape, but irrespective of the shape, we can write the volume  in terms of the area and the thickness.
One molecule has side of length , and the layer is one molecule thick. Therefore, the thickness of the layer is also .
The volume is
The slick is spread across 6 square Kilometres area.

Suppose 1.5 cubic meter of oil is spilled into the ocean. Find the area of the resulting slick, assuming that it is one molecule thick, and that each molecule occupiesa cube 0.50 micro meters on a side.
11) 11) A fishing boat accidentally spills 3.0 barrels of diesel oil into the ocean. Each barrel contains 42 gallons. If the oil film on the ocean is 2.5x102 nm thick, how many square meters will the oil slick cover? A) 1.9 * 106 m2 B) 1.9 * 10-3 m2 C) 1.9 x 107 m2 D) 1.9 *10-6 m2 E) none of these
As a farmer, suppose you want to fence off a rectangular field that borders a river. You wish to find out the dimensions of the field that occupies the largest area, if you have 2500 feet of fencing. Remember that a square maximizes area, so use a square in your work. Draw several diagrams to express the situation and calculate the area for each configuration, then estimate the dimension of largest possible field. . Find the function that models the...
I need help please 1. Andre, a physics undergraduate, enters a coffee shop that is holding a contest. Customers who guess the number of coffee beans inside of a closed, 16.0 f oz aluminum commuter mug get a free pastry and an espresso drink. Motivated by the prospect of free food and coffee, Andre puts his finely-tuned estimation skills to work. What should Andre submit as his estimate for the number of coffee beans in the mug? 2. How much...
1. Convert 60 miles per hour into meters per second. 2. A student is trying to remember some formulas from geometry. In what follows, assume A is area, V is volume, and all other variables are lengths. Determine which formulas are dimensionally consistent. (c) V-0.5bh, (e) V nd 3. The length of a warchouse is measured to be 95.00m. The height of the roof is measured to be 1,350.00cm. The width is measured to be 0.0015km. Calculate the volume of...
