Estimate the number of years it would take to cover the moon


If one micrometeorite (a sphere with a diameter on the order of 2.3 x 10-6 m) struck each square meter of the Moon each second, estimate the number of years it would take to cover the Moon with micrometeorites to a depth of 1.0 m? (Hint: Consider a cubic box, 1.0 m on a side, on the Moon, and find how long it would take to fill the box.)
