If the urban water supply is still functioning smoothly, Chen Xin could figure out a way to connect a pipe from his original home to the shelter to fill up the water tank. When building the shelter before, he used the construction team to connect a long pipe to fill water like this.
But now, on one hand, the construction team has left, and Chen Xin doesn’t have a long enough water pipe. On the other hand, Chen Xin is not sure if the water supply is still available.
In the month since the meteor impact, the Earth’s surface has been almost completely covered by fire and high temperatures, and occasionally meteors fall. Whether the water plant can survive such a disaster is a cause for concern.
Moreover, even if the water plant can survive, the government is maintaining the operation of the water plant to ensure the water supply for the shelter facilities, but how can Chen Xin get the tap water into the shelter’s water tank?
Use a water pipe? Chen Xin doesn’t have such a long water pipe, all he has are a bunch of 1.5-liter mineral water bottles.
Some might suggest just using mineral water bottles to fill up, just fill a few more bottles!
That’s all well and good, but before using the mineral water bottles to fill water, let’s simply explain the relationship between the volume and weight of water, which is the density of water.
Pure water should have a density of 1 under standard conditions, meaning one liter of water weighs one kilogram, and one ton of water is a cubic meter.
