Not swim in the stream or drink its water.

Option: D

<u>Explanation:  </u>

The pH of water is 7, but according to the question, the pH of the local stream is extremely low that means the alkalinity level of the water is very low. This will cause damage to the persons in the water, the pipes in the pool and also the walls of the pool will get damaged by the low pH of water in the pool. The water was extremely low pH will be acidic that means it will be soft and corrosive. It will destroy the metals used in the pool like copper, zinc and lead, so it can easily harm humans too. So I will wisely suggest my friends not to swim or to drink the water from that.

Answer:

D) not swim in or drink the water from the stream

Explanation:

Low pH means the water is acidic which is harmful to your skin as it can cause burns and irritations. So any means of contacting with water is not healthy. The damage to the skin happens as in acidic water it has more H+ than in the neutral water and the extra H+ ions can ionize the atoms  which are combined to form different compounds in the skin when in contact.

A velocity selector in a mass spectrometer uses an electric field of 4.4 x 105 V/m. What magnetic field strength (in Tesla) is n
Brut [27]

Answer:

  B = 9.16 10⁻²  T

Explanation:

The speed selector is a configuration where the electric and magnetic force has the opposite direction, which for a specific speed cancel

       q v B = q E

       v = E / B

       B = E / v

Let's calculate

      B = 4.4 10⁵ / 4.8 10⁶

      B = 9.16 10⁻²  T

a lead block drops its temperature by 5.90 degrees celsius when 427 J of heat are removed from it. what is the mass of the block
Airida [17]

Answer:

577g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Temperature change = 5.9°C

Amount of heat lost = 427J

Unknown:

Mass of the block = ?

Solution:

The heat capacity of a body is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of that body by 1°C.

                H =  m c Ф

  H is the heat capacity

 m  is the mass of the block

  c is the specific heat capacity

   Ф is the temperature change

Specific heat capacity of lead is 0.126J/g°C

   m = H / m Ф

   m = \frac{427}{0.126 x 5.9}  = 577g

Mass of the lead block is 577g
