Because you mentioned the equator, that's part of the answer. The amazon is hot because it is by the equator. The equator is one of the hottest places on the earth because the sun's rays are very close to it or on it. That's why it's hot<span />

it is so rainy because it gets more sunlight than other countrys closer to the equator believe it or not the amazon was a dessert a thousand years ago while the sahara was a rainforest but due to the earths change in rotation this reversed and so the amazon had more sunlight and so more rainforest sprang up.

In nuclear fission and fusion reactions mass is converted into energy. The average person in US uses around 100,000,000 J of ene
daser333 [38]

Answer:

a) The yearly energy consumption for a US population of 300 million is 3\times 10^{16} J/year

b) The energy that would be released if a 60 kg person were converted entirely into energy is 5.4\times 10^{18} Joules.

c) 180 years would this amount of energy support a population of 300 million.

Explanation:

a) Average energy consumed by single person of US = 100,000,000 J/year

Then 300 million US citizen will consume:

300 million = 300 × 1,000,000 = 3\times 10^8

The yearly energy consumption for a US population :

100,000,000 J/year\times 3\times 10^8=3\times 10^{16} J/year

The yearly energy consumption for a US population of 300 million is 3\times 10^{16} J/year

b) E = m\times c^2

E = Energy from converted mass of m

c = speed of light

Given mass of person = m = 60 kg

E=60 kg\times (3\times 10^8 m/s)^2 = 5.4\times 10^{18} J

c) Energy calculated in part (b) = E=5.4\times 10^{18} J

The yearly energy consumption for a US population  of 300 million in an year = 3\times 10^{16} J/year

Let the that would be supported by 5.4\times 10^{18} Joules of energy be x.

x\times 3\times 10^{16} J/year=5.4\times 10^{18} J

x=\frac{5.4\times 10^{18} J}{3\times 10^{16} J/year}=180 years

180 years would this amount of energy support a population of 300 million.
