Answer:

t=17.61 years.

Explanation:

Given that

Reserve of energy = 10,000 EJ

Energy used by human = 18 TW

We know that

1\ E= 10^{18}

1\ T= 10^{12}

So

Reserve\ of\ energy = 10,000 \times10^{18} J

Reserve\ of\ energy = 10^{22} J

Energy\ used\ by\ human = 18 \times10^{12}\ W

Lets t time after energy will be  exhaust

So

18 \times10^{12}\times t=10^{22}

t=\dfrac{10^{22}}{18 \times10^{12}}\ s

t=5.55\times 10^8 \ s

We know that

1 year = 365 days

1 year = 365 x 24 hr

1 year = 365 x 24 x 3600 s

1year =3.15\times 10^7\ s

So

t=\dfrac{5.55\times 10^8 }{3.15\times 10^7}

t=17.61 years.

MariettaO [177]
To figure out just where that earthquake happened, you need to look at your seismogram and you need to know what at least two other seismographs recorded for the same earthquake. You will also need a map of the world, a ruler, a pencil, and a compass for drawing circles on the map.
