A simple model (Fig. 10–56) considers a continent as a
block (density = 2800 kg/m³) floating in the mantle rock
around it (density = 3300 kg/m³). Assuming the continent
is 35 km thick (the average thickness of the Earth's conti-
nental crust), estimate the height of the continent above
the surrounding mantle rock.

[Hint: Because you can swim on or just under the surface of the water in a swimming pool, you have a pretty good idea of your density.]arrow_forward(III) The Earth is not a uniform sphere, but has regions of varying density. Consider a simple model of the Earth divided into three regions-inner core, outer core, and man- tle. Each region is taken to have a unique constant density (the average density of that region in the real Earth): Region Radius (km) Density (kg/m³) Inner Core 0-1220 13,000 Outer Core 1220–3480 11,100 Mantle 3480–6380 4400 (a) Use this model to predict the average density of the entire Earth.

How many cells in a human? Assume that cells have a typical size of about 10 µm (1µm = 10-6 m) in all directions. And that we are the same density as water, and are made completely of cells (both exaggerations, of course, but fine for an order of magnitude estimate). Hints: What is the volume of a cell? What is the volume of a human? How can these quantities be related to give the number of cells in your body? The shape of the cell is not important in this rough estimate: for instance, the difference in volume fraction between say cubes and close packed spheres is only 26%. Format: When you enter your answer, enter it as a power of 10. For example: for 100000, enter "10^5". We'll use this notation later, too.arrow_forward
