Answer:

Scientists agree to use one system of measurement because by using same measurement system they can easily compare their data and result. By comparing data scientists can find the drawbacks of their research and they can modify their research.

Explanation:

If different countries has different measurement system or different scientist has different measurement system then they cannot compare the results of their experiment with each other. And it will be very difficult for them to share their knowledge.A research is successful when different scientist got same result by applying a particular method. In the absence of one system of measurement a research cannot be verified whether it is successful or not.

A river with a flow rate of 7 m3/s discharges into a lake with a volume of 9,000,000 m3. The concentration of a particular VOC i

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The concentration downstream reduces to 0.03463mg/L

Explanation:

Initially let us calculate the time it is required to fill the lake, since for that period of time the pollutant shall remain in the lake before being flushed out.

Thus the detention period is calculated as

$t=\frac{V}{Q}\\\\t=\frac{9000000}{7}=1.285\times 10^{6}seconds\\\\\therefore t = 14.872days$

Now the concentration of the pollutant after 14.872 days is calculated as

$N_{t}=N_{0}e^{-kt}$

where

$N_{o}$ is the initial concentration

't' is the time elapsed after which the remaining concentration is calculated

k is the dissociation constant.

Applying values we get

$N_{t}=3\times e^{-0.3\times 14.872}$

$N_{t}=0.03463mg/L$

(a) Suppose that your measured weight at the equator is one-half your measured weight at the pole on a planet whose mass and dia

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

7160.2812 s or 1.988 hours

Explanation:

m = Mass of person

R = Radius of Earth = $6.37\times 10^{6}\ m$

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$\omega$ = Angular speed

Force at equator would be

$F_e=m(g-\omega^2R)$

Force at pole

$F_p=mg$

From the question

$F_e=\dfrac{1}{2}F_p\\\Rightarrow m(g-\omega^2R)=\dfrac{1}{2}F_p\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{2R}}$

Time period is given by

$T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{2R}{g}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 6.37\times 10^6}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow T=7160.2812\ s=1.988\ hours$
