Explain how rainwater harvesting helps in conservation of water

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Rainwater harvesting essentially means collecting rainwater on the roofs of building and storing it underground for later use. Not only does this recharging arrest groundwater depletion, it also raises the declining water table and can help augment water supply.

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.

The Appalachian Mountains may have once been as lofty as the Himalayan-Tibetan Mountain belt is today. Why are they not this hig

marta [7]

The correct answer is - They formed long ago, and erosion has beveled them to their present elevation.

The Appalachian Mountain Range is one of the oldest mountain ranges on the planet. They have formed in the Ordovician Period, around 480 million years ago. When they formed and were at their peak, the Appalachians were much larger and higher than what they are in the present. The reason for their decline in size is attributed to the erosion. The erosion is a process that removes the material from its original position. This process has been influencing, at different rates, the Appalachians for almost half a billion years. Even though the erosion is not a process that acts very quickly, when put the time that it influenced these mountains we will see that it managed to lower them significantly. That process continues in the present, and in the manner in which the continents are moving, there shouldn't be any force that will help lift up the Appalachians again, but instead they will continue to shrink until they are flattened in the distant future.
