Penelope sees that her brother Angelos is using water carelessly. She warns Angelos to be more careful because water is a renewa

ble resource and can be used up since it takes millions of years to form. Angelos argues that water is a nonrenewable resource and cannot be used up since it can be replaced when it rains.
Which statement is best supported by this scenario?

A. Penelope was correct when she said that water takes millions of years to form.
B. Penelope was correct when she said that water can be used up.
C. Angelos was correct when he said that water is a nonrenewable resource.
D. Angelos was correct when he said that water cannot be used up.

Correct option: B

The water is a precious resource as it is used everywhere. Once we use the water it becomes dirty or unusable and can only be recycled by snow melting or rainfall. Clean water can get used up and it can only be replenished by rain or snow melting. Hence, Penelope was correct when she said that water (clean) can be used up. If you use water for washing, cleaning and other industrial purposes, it becomes dirty and you cannot reuse it. Hence, you have to wait for rain to get clean water again. Hence, the clean water can be used up.

vlabodo [156]

The correct answer to the question is : B) The weight of the water, and C) The height of the water.

EXPLANATION :

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand potential energy of a body.

The potential energy of a body due to its position from ground is known as gravitational potential energy.

The gravitational potential energy is calculated as -

                      Potential energy P.E = mgh

 Here, m is the mass of the body, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

h stands for the height of the body from the ground.

We know that weight of a body is equal to the product of mass with acceleration due to gravity.

Hence, weight W = mg

Hence, potential energy is written as P.E = weight × height.

Hence, potential energy depends on the weight and height of the water.
