Clouds can weigh thousands of pounds due to their liquid water content. often this content is measured in grams per cubic meter (g/m3). assume that a cumulus cloud occupies a volume of one cubic kilometer, and its liquid water content is 0.2 g/m3. (a) what is the volume of this cloud in cubic miles? (b) how much does the water in the cloud weigh in pounds?

a) 0.2399 mi³

b) 440.8 × 10³ Pounds

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of cumulus cloud, V = 1 km³

Liquid water content = 0.2 g/m³

Now,

a) 1 km =

thus,

1 km³ =

1 km³ =  0.2399 mi³

Hence, volume of cloud in cubic miles is 0.2399 mi³

b)

Liquid water content = 0.2 g/m³

Now,

1 Km = 1000 m

thus,

1 km³ = 1000³ m³

Therefore,

Liquid water content in 1 Km³ of cloud = 0.2 g/m³ × 1000³ m³

= 200 × 10⁶ gram

or

= 200 × 10³ Kg

also,

1 kilogram =  2.204 pounds

Therefore,

200 × 10³ Kg = 200 × 10³ × 2.204 pounds = 440.8 × 10³ Pounds

you cant move and you feel like someones pushing you down onto your bed it can feel like you want to get up but you just can't it can be extremely scary
