Answer:
the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM
Explanation:
If a block is connected with a spring and there is no resistive force on the system
In this case the total energy of the system is always conserved and it will change from one form to another form
So here we will say that
Kinetic energy + Potential energy = Total Mechanical energy
As we can say that total energy is conserved so here we have least potential energy when the system has maximum kinetic energy
So here we also know that at mean position of the SHM the system has maximum speed and hence maximum kinetic energy.
So the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM
Treatment water from the plant would affects the communities present in the downstream of the river.
Answer: Option (a)
<u>Explanation:</u>
Wastewater treatment plant is a process used to treat the water that flows from the rivers, streams, and lakes.This plant removes the dust, sand, sediments present in the river water.
When this treated water is released into the downriver stream, it affects the health of aquatic organisms present in that stream.Use of chemicals in treating the wastewater may cause genetic problems to the communities present in that region.
It also causes air pollution and more energy is needed for the treatment process and thus affects the ecosystem.
Yes a perch is a consumer.
The solid, liquid and gas phases of water would have the same structure of the molecules since they are same substance. The only difference would be the distances of the molecules in the container. For a ice, the molecules are close to each other where the molecules vibrate only in place. For liquid, the molecules are freely moving and are at some distance with each other but not that far away with each other. Steam, on the other hand, would have molecules that are very far from each other and are freely moving in the whole container. As the container is heated, the size of the molecules would not change. It is only the volume that has changed. Also, the mass is the same since there is no outflow of the substances.
