The depth of the ocean is sometimes measured in fathoms (1 fathom = 6 feet). distance on the surface of the ocean is sometimes measured in nautical miles (1 nautical mile = 6076 feet). the water beneath a surface rectangle 4.40 nautical miles by 3.90 nautical miles has a depth of 20.0 fathoms. find the volume of water (in cubic meters) beneath this rectangle.

To solve the volume of water in units of cubic meters, we are going to convert first all units in terms of meter.

Let us say that the dimensions are:

length l = 4.40 nautical miles

width w = 3.90 nautical miles

depth h = 20 fathoms

Converting the dimensions to meters:

l = 4.40 nautical miles (6076 feet / nautical mile) (1 meter / 3.28 feet) = 8,150.73 m

w = 3.90 nautical miles (6076 feet / nautical mile) (1 meter / 3.28 feet) = 7,224.51 m

h = 20 fathoms (6 feet / fathom) (1 meter / 3.28 feet) = 36.59 m

The volume of a rectangular prism is:

V = l w h

Substituting the values:

V = (8,150.73 m) (7,224.51 m) (36.59 m)

V= 2,154,330,380 cubic meters

30 miles

step-by-step explanation:

we know that 60 seconds equals 1 minute and 60 minutes 1 hour

44 ft       60 sec     60 min     158400   ft

  *   *   =

1 sec       1 min       1 hour         hour

we know that there are 5280 ft per mile

158400   ft       1 mile         30 miles

  *   =

1   hour               5280 ft     1 hour

so in 1 hour   it can travel 30 miles
