A (an) __helps lessen the effects of thermal pollution

Hunter-Best [27]

Explanation:

The following measures can be taken to prevent or control high temperature caused by thermal pollution:

1. Heated water from the industries can treated before discharging directly to the water bodies.

2. Heated water from the industries can be treated by the installation of cooling ponds and cooling towers.

3. Industrial treated water can be recycled for domestic use or industrial heating.

4. Through artificial lakes: In this lake Industries can discharge their used or heated water at one end and water for cooling purposes may be withdrawn from the other end. The heat is eventually dissipated through evaporation.

Froghopper insects have a typical mass of around 12.5 mg and can jump to a height of 42.3 cm. The takeoff velocity is achieved a

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

2065.005 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-0^2}{2\times h}\\\Rightarrow v^2=2ah\ m/s$

Now H-h = 42.3 - 0.2 = 42.1 cm = 0.421 m

The final velocity will be the initial velocity

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow 0^2-u^2=2gs\\\Rightarrow -2ah=2\times g(H-h)\\\Rightarrow -2a0.002=2\times g0.421\\\Rightarrow a=-\frac{0.421\times -9.81}{0.002}\\\Rightarrow a=2065.005\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of the frog is 2065.005 m/s²

A dense metal sphere is dropped from a 10-meter tower, and at the exact same time an identical metal sphere is thrown horizontal

givi [52]

Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

The horizontal motion doesn't affect the vertical motion. Since the two spheres have the same initial vertical velocity and same initial height, they land at the same time.

From the gravitational law calculate the weight W (gravitational force with respect to the earth) of a 89-kg man in a spacecraft

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

$W=\frac{773}{4.45}=173.76 l b f$

Explanation:

$W=\frac{G \cdot m_{e} \cdot m}{(R+h)^{2}}$

The law of gravitation

$G=6.673\left(10^{-11}\right) m^{3} /\left(k g \cdot s^{2}\right)$

Universal gravitational constant [S.I. units]

$m_{e}=5.976\left(10^{24}\right) k g$

Mass of Earth [S.I. units]

$m=89 kg$

Mass of a man in a spacecraft [S.I. units]

$R=6371 \mathrm{~km}$

Earth radius [km]

Distance between man and the earth's surface

$h=261 \mathrm{~km} \quad[\mathrm{~km}]$

ESULT $W=\frac{6.673\left(10^{-11}\right) \cdot 5.976\left(10^{24}\right) \cdot 89}{\left(6371 \cdot 10^{3}+261 \cdot 10^{3}\right)^{2}}=773.22 \mathrm{~N}$

$W=\frac{773}{4.45}=173.76 l b f$
