How many whales can fit in a 15 millions meters deep and 15 millions meters long pool?

For time's sake, let's consider a Blue Whale, which is about 30 meters long. If it's a big whale, it'd be about 4 meters 'tall' and 6 meters wide. Altogether, that is 720m3.

The pool you described does not have a width, so let's also assume that it is in the shape of a square. Then, if we work with scientific notation, (1.5*107)*(1.5*107)*(1.5*107), or (1.5*107)3 = 3.375*1021m3. To find how many whales fit into the pool, we have to divide the volume of the whale into the volume of the (colossal) pool.

3.375*1021m3/720m3 = 4.6875*1018 whales. This can also be written as 4,687,500,000,000,000,000, or 4.6875 million trillion whales. Keep in mind, this only applies for Blue Whales!

The calculation also does not account for the compression of whales that have the misfortune of being stuck under over 9,300 miles of... blubber. We are only about 3,900 miles from the center of the earth. The actual number of whales would be orders of magnitude larger than 4.7 million trillion.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
