The Jules Verne novel "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" tells the story of the voyage of the submarine Nautilus. If one league equals 3 miles, how many kilometers did the Nautilus travel on its journey? Please round your answer to the 100's place

96558.00 kilometers

Explanation:

From the title of the novel, it is assumed that the submarine covered 20,00 leagues on its journey.

1 league = 3 miles, therefore;

20,000 leagues = 20,000 x 3 = 60,000 miles.

1 mile = 1.6093 km

Hence,

60,000 miles = 60,000 x 1.6093 km

            = 96,558 km

               = 96558.00 km to the 100's place

Therefore, 96558.00 kilometers was covered by Nautilus during the journey.

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
