Why is the majority of earth's freshwater not readily available for our use?

a. it is in the atmosphere.
b. it is locked up in glaciers and ice caps.
c. it is in rivers far from major human population centers.
d. it is in the ground.

Which process is represented by the pv diagram? a. the isobaric process b. the isovolumetric process c. the isothermal process d. the adiabatic process

Because air contracts as it cools, the air pressure inside a freezer is typically lower than on the outside. why do ice cubes inside a freezer tend to shrink over time? a. the ice dissolves oxygen from the air, forming a denser crystalline matrix.b. the ice reacts chemically with carbon dioxide in the air, forming gaseous carbon compounds.c. the ice melts, and then the liquid freezes as ice crystals on the bottom of the freezer.d. the ice sublimes, and then the water vapor deposits as ice crystals on the sides of the freezer.

Astone is thrown with a speed v0 and returns to earth, as the drawing shows. ignore friction and air resistance, and consider the initial and final locations of the stone. which one of the following correctly describes the change δpe in the gravitational potential energy and the change δke in the kinetic energy of the stone as it moves from its initial to its final location? options a.δpe = 0 j and δke = 0 j b.δpe is positive and δke is negative c.δpe = 0 j and δke is positive d.δpe is negative and δke is positive e.δpe = 0 j and δke is negative
