Approximately 29% of the Earth's surface is covered by land, which includes continents and islands, while the remaining 71% is covered by water, primarily oceans. The distribution of land varies significantly across different regions, with some areas being densely populated and developed, while others remain largely uninhabited.

How much water is ground water?
Ground water accounts for approximately .61% of the earth's water today.
How much of planet earth's surface is covered in ground?
Only 1/3.
How do you ground earth a car?
Unless it is a stationary vehicle where you can stick a spike into the ground, you can't ground earth a car. Aside of a chassis ground, the closest you can get to an earth ground is through the vehicle's tires, which ground you in the event of a lightning strike to the vehicle.
What does ground mean on car wiring is it earth?
Yes. Ground and Earth is the same thing.
Why is Earth called earth because nearly three quarters of it is covered in water?
The term "Earth" likely comes from Old English and Germanic words meaning "ground" or "soil." While much of Earth's surface is covered by water, it may have been named for the solid ground that supports life.
What percentage of the earth's freashwater is ground water?
The percentage of Earth's ground water is 0.5%.
Why do the Maasai believe they must care for the environment?
They believe that the earth is their mother and father because the earth provides for them and they have got all they need, they don't cut down trees, plough they ground or take crops from the ground because they believe that they are breaking plants away from the earth. So that is why the Masai people care very much for the earth.
How much does a kilogram weigh?

How walking is an example of newton's third law of motion?
As you push against the ground (action) Earth pushes you forward (reaction), you have the same effect on the Earth that the Earth has on you, but since the Earth is much heavier, it does not move as much. The change in momentum is identical, however.
How do volcanoes effect the earth?
• They destroy much of their surroundings, and lowers the earth's temperature by many degrees. When a volcano has erupted, it covers most of the ground near it with hot ash or lava.
What is ground movement?
brunnett beauty: What is ground movement? I believe ground movement is the plates moving in the earth just like how earthquakes form by plates in the ground colide to make movement in the earth.
What is the ground in an electrical circuit?
"Ground" is an important concept in electronics and it has practical significance. Ground provides a reference from which all other voltages are "measured". It is generally held a zero volts. Ground comes from the old nomenclature of "earth ground" and sometimes it is still referred to as "earth". Occasionally, you will see "chassis ground". Chassis ground refers to the voltage of the electronics chassis, which sometimes is isolated from earth ground and there may be (usually there is) a voltage differential between earth ground and chassis ground. The intent of most three prong plugs is to keep the chassis ground the same voltage as earth ground. If this were not the case, there could be the potential (pun intended) of a nasty shock.
