### Energy Calculation in the Pacific Ocean#### Problem Statement:The total volume of the Pacific Ocean is estimated to be \( 7.20 \times 10^8 \, \text{km}^3 \). A medium-sized atomic bomb produces \( 1.00 \times 10^{15} \) J (joules) of energy upon explosion. Calculate the number of atomic bombs needed to release enough energy to raise the temperature of the water in the Pacific Ocean by \( 2.00^\circ C \). Assume that:- The density of seawater is \( 1.00 \, \text{g/mL} \).- Provide your answer in scientific notation.#### Answer Box:\[\boxed{ \times 10^ }\]#### Procedure to Calculate:1. **Convert the volume of the Pacific Ocean to cubic meters:** - Volume metric conversion: \( 1 \, \text{km}^3 = 1 \times 10^9 \, \text{m}^3 \) - Pacific Ocean volume: \( 7.20 \times 10^8 \, \text{km}^3 \times 1 \times 10^9 \, \text{m}^3/\text{km}^3 = 7.20 \times 10^{17} \, \text{m}^3 \)2. **Convert the volume to grams:** - Using the density of seawater (1 g/mL), recognize that \( 1 \text{m}^3 = 1 \times 10^6 \, \text{mL} \) - Therefore, \( 7.20 \times 10^{17} \, \text{m}^3 \times 1 \times 10^6 \, \text{g}/\text{m}^3 = 7.20 \times 10^{23} \, \text{g} \)3. **Calculate the energy required to raise the temperature:** - Specific heat capacity of water = \( 4.186 \, \text{J/g} \cdot \text{°C} \) - Temperature change = \( 2.00^\circ C \) - Total energy required = mass \(\times\) specific heat \(\times\) temperature change

De All chan 1. Why is the neutron to proton ratio so important? It determines the stability of the nucleus based on the shielding effect of the neutrons. The neutron to proton ratio describes a radioactive element's half-life. Scientists made up this concept because they wanted to create radiation. An atom's nucleus likes to have the same number of neutrons and protons, so knowing that ratio is important. 00:53:35 PREVIOUS 1 of 20 NEXT SAVE
