Give an example of nonpoint-source pollution

1 answer:

8 0

Nonpoint source pollution is pollution that affects bodies of water, so remembering this can help in the future with this type of question. Some examples of nonpoint source pollution are; Excess fertilizers and herbicides, oil and toxic chemical runoff, as well as sediment from eroding stream banks. I hope this helps :)

The potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart gun, with a spring constant of 32.50 N/m, is 0.640 J. Find by how

liraira [26]

Answer:

$x = 0.198456 \ m$

$h = 1.3061 \ m$

$v = 5.06 \ m/s$

$d = 4.0273 \ m$

Explanation:

Considering the first question

From the question we are told that

The spring constant is $k = 32.50 N/m$

The potential energy is $PE = 0.640 \ J$

Generally the potential energy stored in spring is mathematically represented as $PE = \frac{1}{2} * k * x^2$

=> $0.640= \frac{1}{2} * 32.50 * x^2$

=> $x = \sqrt{0.03938}$

=> $x = 0.198456 \ m$

Considering the second question

From the question we are told that

The mass of the dart is m = 0.050 kg

Generally from the law of energy conservation

$PE = mgh$

=> $0.640 = 0.050 * 9.8 * h$

=> $h = 1.3061 \ m$

Considering the third question

The height at which the dart was fired horizontally is $H = 3.90\ m$

Generally from the law of energy conservation

$PE = KE$

Here KE is kinetic energy of the dart which is mathematical represented as

$KE = \frac{1}{2} * mv^2$

=> $0.640 = \frac{1}{2} * 0.050 * v^2$

=> $v^2 = 25.6$

=> $v = 5.06 \ m/s$

Considering the fourth question

Generally the total time of flight of the dart is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{ 2 * H }{g}$

=> $t = \frac{ 2 * 3.90 }{9.8 }$

=> $t = 0.7959 \ s$

Generally the horizontal distance from the equilibrium position to the ground is mathematically represented as

$d = v * t$

=> $d = 5.06 * 0.7959$

=> $d = 4.0273 \ m$

A human being can be electrocuted if a current as small as 51.0 ma passes near the heart. an electrician working with sweaty han

boyakko [2]

The fatal current is 51 mA = 0.051 Ampere.

The resistance is 2,050Ω .

Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

= (0.051 Ampere) x (2,050 Ω) = 104.6 volts .

==================

This is what the arithmetic says IF the information in the question
is correct.

I don't know how true this is, and I certainly don't plan to test it,
but I have read that a current as small as  15 mA  through the
heart can be fatal, not  51 mA .

If 15 mA can do it, and the sweaty electrician's resistance is
really 2,050 Ω, then the fatal voltage could be as little as  31 volts !

The voltage at the wall-outlets in your house is 120 volts in the USA !
THAT's why you don't want to stick paper clips or a screwdriver into
outlets, and why you want to cover unused outlets with plastic plugs
if there are babies crawling around.

A machine whose efficiency is 75% is used to lift a load of 100m.calculate the effort put into the machine if it has a velocity

aliina [53]

Explanation:

M.A = load / Effort

efficiency = M.A/V.R X 100

75 = M.A / 4 X 100

75 = 25 X M.A

M.A = 75/25 = 3

M.A = load / effort

3 = 100/E

E = 100/3 = 33.333
