A town requiring 2.0 m3/s of drinking water has two sources, a local well with 15 g/m3 nitrate (as N) and a distant reservoir with 5 g/m3 nitrate (as N). What flow rates of well and reservoir water are needed to meet the EPA drinking water standard and minimize the use of more expensive reservoir water

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Drinking water requirement in town 2.0 m^3/s of water per second

nitrate in local well  nitrate per 15 [tex]\mathrm{m}^{3}[/tex] of water

nitrate in distant reservoir [tex]=5 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{m}^{3}[/tex]

Let the flow rate of well

flow rate of reservoir [tex]=y m^{3} / s[/tex]

Drinking water requirement is [tex]45 \mathrm{ppm}[/tex] or [tex]45 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{m}^{3}[/tex]

therefore, the total flow of drinking water

how is a trench and a tsunami related? 6-8 sentences

Answers

Answer: A tsunami is a very long-wavelength wave of water that is generated by sudden displacement of the seafloor or disruption of any body of standing water.  Tsunami are sometimes called "seismic sea waves", although they can be generated by mechanisms other than earthquakes.  Tsunami have also been called "tidal waves", but this term should not be used because they are not in any way related to the tides of the Earth.  Because tsunami occur suddenly, often without warning, they are extremely dangerous to coastal communities. Ocean trenches are steep depressions in the deepest parts of the ocean [where old ocean crust from one tectonic plate is pushed beneath another plate, raising mountains, causing earthquakes, and forming volcanoes on the seafloor and on land.

An amateur blacksmith wants to cool off a 42kg glowing piece of iron, specific heat 470and decides to toss it into a 5.0 kg iron bucket with 10.0 kg of room temperature(23 C) water in it. To his surprise the water completely evaporates away (meaning once it vaporizes it is no longer part of the system) and after some time he goes to pick up the bucket but finds that the bucket is at 150 C.

Required:
What was the initial temperature of the glowing piece of iron?

Answers

Answer:

The right approach is "1479°C".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass of iron piece,

[tex]m_p=42 \ kg[/tex]

Mass of iron bucket,

[tex]m_I=5 \ kg[/tex]

Mass of water,

[tex]m_w=10 \ kg[/tex]

Iron's specific heat,

[tex]C_I=470 \ J/Kg^{\circ}C[/tex]

Water's specific heat,

[tex]C_w=4186 \ J/Kg^{\circ}C[/tex]

Initial temperature,

[tex]t_I=23^{\circ}C[/tex]

Final equilibrium temperature,

[tex]T=150^{\circ}C[/tex]

Latent heat,

[tex]L_v=2260\times 10^3 \ J/Kg[/tex]

As we know,

The heat lost by the glowing piece of iron will be equal to the heat gain by the iron bucket as well as water, then

⇒ [tex]m_IC_I \Delta T=m_wC_w(100-23)+m_wL_v+m_bC_I(150-23)[/tex]

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒ [tex]42\times 420\times \Delta T=10\times 4186(100-23)+10(2260\times 10^3)+5\times 420(150-23)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]17640 \Delta T=3.22\times 10^6+2.26\times 10^7+2.667\times 10^5[/tex]

⇒          [tex]\Delta T=\frac{2.60867\times 10^7}{17640}[/tex]

⇒          [tex]\Delta T=1479^{\circ}C[/tex]

how do you find the weight of an object on an incline in physics?​

Answers

Refers to the attachment for the answer.

Let us assume that the object of mass m is kept on the Inclined plane.

Now, there will act one force called as Component of the Weight along the Incline which is given by the Relation,

mgsinθ,

where θ is the angle which the incline makes with the surface or Angle of the Incline.

Now, If there will be no friction and the object is moving along the incline

Force = mgsinθ

⇒ ma = mgsinθ

∴ a = gsinθ

This case is valid when the angle of the Incline is greater than the angle of repose, which means the object is moving with no cause or acing of the force.

But sometimes when the object does not move without the action of force, I mean that the angle of repose is greater than the angle of the incline, then we need to apply the force so that the object can move then,

Force applied = mgsinθ

∴ a = gsinθ

It will change the cases when friction is involved.

Now, For velocity, It can be found by using the equation of Motions. Time, Distance or initial velocity, etc must be given if the question will be asked related to the velocity. So by using them, you can find that.

A 120V Microwave uses 8A of current. It runs for 15 hours over the course of a month. If electrical energy costs $0.11/KWh, what does it cost to run the microwave for the month

Answers

Answer:

Monthly energy cost = $47.52

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 120 Volts

Current = 8 Ampere

Time = 15 hours

Energy cost = $0.11/KWh

To find the energy cost for a month;

First of all, we would determine the power rating of the microwave oven.

Power = current * voltage

Power = 8 * 120

Power = 960 Watts

Next, we find the amount of energy consumed;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 960 * 15

Energy = 14400 Watt-hour

To kilowatt per hour, we have;

Energy = 14400/1000 = 14.4 KWh

Now, we determine the monthly energy cost;

Daily energy cost = Energy consumption * cost

Daily energy cost = 14.4 * 0.11

Daily energy cost = $1.584

Therefore, monthly energy cost = 1.584 * 30

Monthly energy cost = $47.52

Or

Monthly energy cost = 14.4 * 0.11 * 30

Monthly energy cost = $47.52

Consider the path of a comet orbiting a star, the system of the comet plus the star. Which of the following statements are correct? Select all that are True. 1) As the comet slows down, the kinetic energy of the system decreases. 2) As the comet's kinetic energy increases, the gravitational potential energy of the system also increases. 3) External work must be done on the system to speed up the comet. 4) As the kinetic energy of the system increases, the gravitational potential energy of the system decreases. 5) As the comet slows down, energy is lost from the system.

Answers

Answer:

True  1, 4

False 2, 3, 5

Explanation:

The system is formed by the Sun that is fixed at a point (focus of movement) and the comet that rotates around in styptic orbits. The only force involved is the force of attraction between the two bodies, if we write the energy of the system

         Em = K + U

         Em = ½ m v2 + G m Ms / r2

where m is the mass of the comet, Ms the mass of the Sun and r the distance between them.

This system is isolated so the energy is conserved throughout the movement, it only transforms from kinetic to gravitational potential.

Let's review the different claims;

1) True. The speed of the comet determines its kinetic energy, so when decreasing the speed decreases the kinetic energy, there is also a decrease due to the lost mass

2) False. The total energy is constant, so if the kinetic energy increases, the power energy must decrease

3) False. The comet's speed changes are due to changes in gravitational energy, so no external work is needed to change the speed.

4) True. Correct because the sum of the two must be constant

5) False. When the comet loses speed, the energy increases, the power would gravitate, so there is no loss of energy, we are ignoring the loss of mass of the comet.

Earthquakes have two kinds of waves, P waves and S waves. These waves may someday help scientist develop an early warning system for earthquakes. The P wave (also known as the primary wave) is the first wave, and the S wave (secondary wave) travels after it. Scientists can find the location of an earthquakes epicenter by subtracting the time that elapses between the P and S waves. A convenient way to find the epicenter is to use a graph like the one shown here.

Suppose that scientists record a P wave on a seismic device at 10 minutes. An s wave reaches the device at 15 minutes (5 minutes later). What is the distance between the recording device and the epicenter of the earthquake? Use the graph to determine your answer.

Answers

Answer:

42

Explanation:

Multiply the difference by 8.4 to estimate the distance. ( kilometers )

P wave = 10

S wave = 15

Difference = 5

8.4 * 5 = 42

The initial wave (P wave) is less severe and moves faster, whereas the more damaging S wave moves slowly.

What is seismic waves?

When an earthquake happens, it sends forth energy waves known as seismic waves. It's similar to the ripples that occur when a stone is thrown into water.

Here, There are two types of waves: P waves and S waves.

P waves travel faster and are formed first; they go in the exact opposite direction from where the earthquake occurs.

S waves, or secondary waves, on the other hand, are slower and travel in a perpendicular direction.

When these waves are generated in particular facilities, scientists can detect them.

The difference between time = 15 – 10 = 5

From the graph:

=8.4×5

= 42

Thus, the initial wave (P wave) is less severe and moves faster, whereas the more damaging S wave moves slowly.

21. Inferring The charged particle on the left is a proton. What is the charged
particle on the right? How do you know?

Answers

If the field is in a vacuum, the magnetic field is the dominant factor determining the motion. Since the magnetic force is perpendicular to the direction of travel, a charged particle follows a curved path in a magnetic field. The particle continues to follow this curved path until it forms a complete circle. Another way to look at this is that the magnetic force is always perpendicular to velocity, so that it does no work on the charged particle. The particle’s kinetic energy and speed thus remain constant. The direction of motion is affected but not the speed.

A negatively charged particle moves in the plane of the paper in a region where the magnetic field is perpendicular to the paper (represented by the small × ’s—like the tails of arrows). The magnetic force is perpendicular to the velocity, so velocity changes in direction but not magnitude. The result is uniform circular motion.

1. Two forces act on a box as follows: F1 = 100 N at 01 = 170° and F2 = 75 N

at 02 = 30°. Find their resultant force on the box.

(a) the magnitude of vector sum Fi + F2

(b) the direction of of the vector sum Fi + F2

Answers

Answer:

a)  F = 64.30 N,  b) θ = 121.4º

Explanation:

Forces are vector quantities so one of the best methods to add them is to decompose each force and add the components

let's use trigonometry

Force F1

          sin 170 = F_{1y} / F₁

          cos 170 = F₁ₓ / F₁

          F_{1y} = F₁ sin 170

          F₁ₓ = F₁ cos 170

          F_{1y} = 100 sin 170 = 17.36 N

          F₁ₓ = 100 cos 170 = -98.48 N

Force F2

          sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂

          cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂

          F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30

          F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30

          F_{2y} = 75 sin 30 = 37.5 N

          F₂ₓ = 75 cos 30 = 64.95 N

the resultant force is

X axis

          Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ

          Fₓ = -98.48 +64.95

          Fₓ = -33.53 N

Y axis

         F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y}

         F_y = 17.36 + 37.5

         F_y = 54.86 N

a) the magnitude of the resultant vector

let's use Pythagoras' theorem

         F = Ra Fx ^ 2 + Fy²

         F = Ra 33.53² + 54.86²

         F = 64.30 N

b) the direction of the resultant

let's use trigonometry

        tan θ’= F_y / Fₓ

        θ'= [tex]tan^{-1} \frac{F_y}{F_x}[/tex]

        θ'= tan⁻¹ (54.86 / (33.53)

        θ’= 58.6º

this angle is in the second quadrant

The angle measured from the positive side of the x-axis is

        θ = 180 -θ'

        θ = 180- 58.6

        θ = 121.4º

An electron is accelerated through a potential difference of 3.5 kV and directed into a region between two parallel plates separated by 29 mm with a potential difference of 100 V between them.

Answers

Answer: [tex]0.985\times 10^{-4}\ T[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

Electron is accelerated 3.5 kV potential difference

Distance between plates d=29 mm

The potential difference between plates is V=100 V

here, the kinetic energy of an electron is acquired through a potential difference of 3.5 kV

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}m_ev^2=e\times 3.5\times 10^3\\\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 3.5\times 10^3e}{m_e}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{7\times 10^3\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}}\\\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{1.23\times 10^{15}}=3.5\times 10^7\ m/s[/tex]

To move in a straight line Force due to magnetic field must be balanced by force due to charge

[tex]\Rightarrow F_B=F_q\\\\\Rightarrow evB=eE\\\\\Rightarrow B=\dfrac{E}{v}\\\\\Rightarrow B=\dfrac{\frac{V}{d}}{3.5\times 10^7}=\dfrac{\frac{100}{0.029}}{3.5\times 10^7}\\\\\Rightarrow B=\dfrac{3.448\times 10^3}{3.5\times 10^7}=0.985\times 10^{-4}\ T[/tex]

A pendulum has a length of 2 m and a 30 kg mass hanging on the end. What is the period of the
pendulum?

Answers

Answer:

T = 2.83701481512 seconds

Explanation:

Hi!

The formula that you will want to use to solve this question is:

[tex]T = 2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }[/tex]

T--> period

L --> length of the pendulum

g --> acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s^2)

since we know that the mass of the bob at the end of the pendulum does not affect the period of the pendulum, we can go ahead and ignore that bit of information (unless, of course, the weight causes the pendulum to stretch)

so now we can plug in our given info into the formula above and solve!

T = 2*pi * sqrt(2/9.8)

T = 2.83701481512 seconds

*Note*

- I used 3.14 to pi, if you need to use a different value for pi (a longer version, etc) your answer will be slightly different
