Of all the water on the earth, only about 3% is fresh water. 68% of all the freshwater is frozen as glaciers and is unavailable

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is statement A.

Explanation:

The procedure of purifying ocean water, that is, the saline water so that it can become suitable for drinking is termed as desalination. Almost 70 percent of the Earth is covered with water and of this only 3 percent is used for drinking purposes. On a huge scale, the process of desalination would require the boiling of water, which would eventually require an enormous amount of energy.

Reverse osmosis and electro-dialysis are the methods used for desalination. However, these procedures are very costly and cannot be performed on a huge level as it can affect the economy of various countries.

The armpit isn't the most precise but it is close. Under the tongue, across the forehead, as long as you have the proper tools (thermometer, the thermometer meant for foreheads) you should get a fairly accurate reading.

You have a 16N sack of potatoes that you need to lift onto the kitchen counter. You set up a pulley system with a mechanical adv

natali 33 [55]

A force of 8 N will be required.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of output force from a system to the input force into the system. A machine which has the mechanical advantage more than 1 means it requires less force to give more force as output. Similarly, when the mechanical advantage for the machine is less than 1,it means more force is required to give to achieve a less one.

Here in the question, the mechanical advantage of the pulley is 2.

Output force required to pull the sack of potatoes upto kitchen is 16N.

Mechanical advantage = Output force / input force.

Or, 2= 16 / input force.

So input force = $16 / 2 =8.$

So a force of 8 N will be required to pull the pulley.
