What is the volume occupied by 1 gram of liquid at 0 degrees
What is the volume occupied by 1 gram of liquid at 0 degrees celsius? If the water is in the shape of a spherical droplet what would the radius of the droplet be in microns? Recompute these values using a temperature of 50 degrees celsius. - Meteorology Q
Solution
volume occupied by 1 kg = 1000 gm of water = 1000 cm^3
volume of 1 gm = 1000 cm^3 / 1000 = 1 cm^3
the volume of a sphere 4pi r^3 / 3 = 1 cm^3
radius r = 0.620 cm
The volume of the 1 gm of water at 50C = 1.01 cm^3
volume 4pi r^3 / 3 = 1.01 cm^3
radius of the spherical drop r = 0.622 cm
