Detailed Solution

Renewable resources are those resources which are generally replenished by nature over some time. Renewable resources use the energy available in nature and convert it into a resource, for example, solar energy, wind energy and the energy generated by the dams. However, it does not mean they can be overused or in abundance. They are not. Renewable resources get exhausted just like non-renewable resources, which take a lot of time to replenish. However, because of the technological advancements in some countries, the resources are easily harnessed by the developed nations rather than the underdeveloped ones.
