If the Earth’s atmosphere is considered to extend from the surface to 20 km, the earth’s radius is 6,200 km, and the atmosphere is partitioned into cells spaced 0.5 km apart, how many floating‐point calculations will be required to run one iteration of a global weather simulation, assuming that each cell requires 200 floating‐point operations? If it requires 20 cycles (iterations) of simulation to calculate the weather over the next 24 hours, and a forecast is needed in 30 minutes, what must the FLOPS rating of the computing system be?
I know the answer is:
Can someone explain the math in the last section of that answer? Like " why If the sampling points are ½ km apart, there are 8 per km^3 for the entire atmosphere" and so on.

Question 10. If the Earth's atmosphere is considered to extend from the surface to 25 km, the earth's radius is 6371 km, and the atmosphere is partitioned into cells spaced 0.25 km apart, how many floating point calculations will be required to run one iteration of a global weather simulation, assuming that each cell requires 300 floating point operations? If it requires 50 cycles (iterations) of simulation to calculate the weather over the next 24 hours and a forecast is...

For the preparation and standardization of NaOH with KHP im supposed to boil water for 1hr and 30 min to remove CO2....the problem is that if I don't boil it for that long and (30 min) b/c of not enough time but I put the water I boiled for 1/2 hr aproximately into a NaOH bottle with a CO2 absorber and stored it there for a few days. I would assume that I would have to boil the water again...but...
