The volume of water in large scale reservoirs is often measured in units of an acre-foot, which is the amount of water covering one acre of surface to a depth of one foot. An acre-foot is equivalent to 43,560 ft³. A particular water tower in town was constructed to hold 2.95 acre-feet of water. What is the volume of water in liters that the water tower will hold? ( 1 US liquid gallon = 231 cubic inches, 3.785 liters = 1 US liquid gallon)

In 1999, scientists discovered a new class of black holes with masses 100 to 10,000 times the mass of our sun, but occupying less space than our moon. Suppose that one of these black holes has a mass of 1×10^3 suns and a radius equal to one-half the radius of our moon. What is its density in grams per cubic centimeter? The mass of the sun is 2.0×10^30 kg and the radius of the moon is 2.16×10^3 mi (Volume of a sphere =4/3πr^3)
