How much Water is there on Earth? - Number Hub (Ep 1) - Head Squeeze
Mathematician Matt Parker crunches some numbers to estimate how much water there is on earth. Number Hub: Stand up mathematicians reveal the mind ...
Ok, using an estimate for (10^n)! of 10^(n-0.4)10^n (which works so
incredibly well up to (10^4)! that I very unmathematically decided that it
would continue to work) and an estimate for (10^46)P(10^25) of
10^(46*10^25) all gives a value for the number of possible pints that can
be chosen of about 10^(2*10^26) which I will claim is accurate to many
orders of magnitude either way. Which I think is accurate enough, but I
study engineering.
The phrase "number of possible pints" interested me. If, instead of
dividing all the water into 2e21 pints, you number all 4e46 molecules of
water and select a random sample of 2e25 molecules, you find that there are
(4e46)C(2e25) possible pints. And I have no idea how to calculate that.
Suggestions?
The drawing at 1:33 is inaccurate to say the least. Google for "Truly
Awesome Picture Perfectly Shows How Little Water There Is On Earth". You'll
