The freshwater reservoirs on earth are ranked by volume, with the one with the biggest volume at the top is-

1. ice caps; 2. groundwater; 3. lakes; 4. rivers.

<h3>Explain the freshwater reservoirs on earth?</h3>

The atmosphere, the earth's surface, and the earth's interior are the three main locations where water can be kept.

Oceans, glacier ice, underground, lakes, soil humidity, living organisms, atmospheric atmosphere, and rivers are examples of these reservoirs, which are used to store water.
There is an estimated 1.386 billion km3 (330 million cubic miles) of water on Earth, of which 97.5% is salt water and 2.5% is fresh water.
Only 0.3% of a fresh water is liquid at the surface.
More than 70% of freshwater is utilized for agriculture in the majority of the world's areas.
An estimated 50% increase in agricultural output and a 15% increase in water flows are needed by 2050 to feed a globe of 9 billion people.

Thus, the freshwater reservoirs on earth are ranked by volume, with the one with the biggest volume at the top is-

1. ice caps
2. groundwater
3. lakes
4. rivers

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The value is $E_i = 1.5596 *10^{-18} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength is $\lambda = 48.2 nm = 48.2 *10^{- 9 }\ m$

The velocity is $v = 2.371*10^6 \ m/s$

The mass of electron is $m_e = 9.109*10^{-31} \ kg$

Generally the energy of the incident light is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{h * c}{\lambda}$

Here c is the speed of light with value $c = 3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s$

h is the Planck constant with value $h = 6.62607015 * 10^{-34 } J\cdot s$

$E = \frac{6.62607015 * 10^{-34 }* 3.0 *10^{8}}{48.2 *10^{- 9 }}$

=> $E = 4.12 *10^{-18} \ J$

Generally the kinetic energy is mathematically represented as

$E_k = \frac{1}{2} * m_e * v^2$

=> $E_k = \frac{1}{2} * 9.109*10^{-31} * (2.371*10^6 )^2$

=> $E_k = 2.56 *0^{-18} \ J$

Generally the ionization energy is mathematically represented as

$E_i = 4.12 *10^{-18} - 2.56 *0^{-18}$

=> $E_i = 1.5596 *10^{-18} \ J$

A roof tile falls from rest from the top of a building. An observer inside the building notices that it takes 0.28 s for the til

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:0.246 m

Explanation:

Given

height of window (h)=1 m

Time to pass window =0.28 s

Let roof is at a distance of $h_0$ above window

let t be the time to cover $h_0$

$h_0+1=\frac{g(t+0.28)^2}{2}$ ------1

$h_0=\frac{gt^2}{2}$ --------2

subtract 1 & 2

$1=\frac{g(t+0.28)^2}{2}-\frac{gt^2}{2}$

$1=\frac{g}{2}\left [ \left ( 2t+0.28\right )\left ( 0.28\right )\right ]$

t=0.224 s

$h_0=\frac{9.8\times 0.224^2}{2}$

$h_0=0.246 m$
