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.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

A) 15.0 years

Explanation:

Due to the distance to the star system is in light-year units, we can compute the time by using:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{14.4 l-y}{0.960}=15l-y

then, Rob will take to complete the trip about 15 light-years.

hope this helps!!

You have two points in a soil. Point A is at 75 cm; point B is at 25 cm above the reference. The capillary potential energy at p
user100 [1]

Answer:

The potential energy at point A is 17.1675 J

Explanation:

The capillary potential is the work expended to bring up a unit mass of liquid to a point in a capillary region from a level liquid surface. It is the capillary potential that facilitates the movement of moisture within soil capillaries

In meteorology it is used to describe the level of saturated soil above the water table

Potential energy is the energy inherent in a body by virtue of its position, therefore the potentials of both point A and B are

Point A, elevation = 75 cm capillary potential = -100 cm

Point B, elevation = 25 cm capillary potential = -200 cm

The total potential energy at point A is

Elevation above reference - capillary potential =75-(-100) = 175 cm

which gives per unit mass

PE = m × g × h = 1 kg × 9.81 m/s ² × 1.75 m = 17.1675 kg·m²/s² = 17.1675 J
