(c) Suppose a very strange global rainstorm dropped exactly 2 cm of rain on every point on Earth's surface. What volume of water would this be, expressed in cubic meters? Also find the volume in cubic miles, clearly showing the steps you take. (For comparison, the total volume of Earth's oceans is estimated to be 1.3 x 10¹8 m³, or about 3.2 x 10³ mi³.) Note: you do not need to look up the formula for the volume of a sphere to solve this problem, though you can do it that way if you want. (d) The density of water is 1000 kg/m³. What is the mass of this much water in kilograms?
