How much water is stored in polar ice caps glaciers and permanent snow

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

1.7% is stored in the polar icecaps, glaciers, and permanent snow

Explanation:

70% of the Earth's surface is covered with water; However, only a small percentage, 0.025%, is suitable for human consumption. A limited resource whose demand, according to the forecasts of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), will skyrocket up to 55% globally between 2000 and 2050.

In the attached infographic we observe that the total volume of water on Earth is 1,386 million cubic kilometers, of which<em> </em><u>1.7% is forming polar ice, cap glaciers and permanent snow</u>. 1,338 million cubic kilometers of that water is in seas and oceans, that is, 96.5% is in seas and oceans, that is, it is salt water that cannot be drunk.

Only 3.5% of the Earth's water is fresh, but of this percentage, only 1% of the Earth's fresh water flows through the river basins in the form of streams and rivers.

A block is released to slide down a frictionless incline of 15∘ and then it encounters a frictional surface with a coefficient o

Elodia [21]

The block's potential energy at the top of the incline (at a height h from the horizontal surface) is equal to its kinetic energy at the bottom of the incline, so that

mgh = 1/2 mv²

where v is its speed at the bottom of the incline. It follows that

v = √(2gh)

If the incline is 20.4 m long, that means the block has a starting height of

sin(15°) = h/(20.4 m) ⇒ h = (20.4 m) sin(15°) ≈ 5.2799 m

and so the block attains a speed of

v = √(2gh) ≈ 10.1728 m/s

The block then slides to a rest over a distance d. Kinetic friction exerts a magnitude F over this distance and performs an amount of work equal to Fd. By the work-energy theorem, this quantity is equal to the block's change in kinetic energy, so that

Fd = 0 - 1/2 mv² ⇒ d = (-1293.58 J)/F

By Newton's second law, the net vertical force on the block as it slides is

∑ F [vertical] = n - mg = 0

where n is the magnitude of the normal force, so that

n = mg = (25 kg) g = 245 N

and thus the magnitude of friction is

F = -0.16 (245 N) = -39.2 N

(negative since it opposes the block's motion)

Then the block slides a distance of

d = (-1293.58 J) / (-39.2 N) ≈ 32.9994 m ≈ 33 m
