A town requiring 2.0 m3/s of drinking water has two sources, a local well with 15 g/m3 nitrate (as N) and a distant reservoir wi

kati45 [8]

Explanation:

Drinking water requirement in town 2.0 m^3/s of water per second

nitrate in local well nitrate per 15 $\mathrm{m}^{3}$ of water

nitrate in distant reservoir $=5 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{m}^{3}$

Let the flow rate of well

flow rate of reservoir $=y m^{3} / s$

Drinking water requirement is $45 \mathrm{ppm}$ or $45 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{m}^{3}$

therefore, the total flow of drinking water

Compare the energy consumption of two commonly used items in the household. Calculate the energy used by a 1.40 kW toaster oven,

Nikolay [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Power consumed by toaster oven, $P=1.4\ kW$

Time taken, t = 6 minutes = 0.1 hour

Energy used by toaster, $W_{toaster}=P\times t$

$W_{toaster}=1.4\ kW\times 0.1\ h=0.14\ kWh$

Similarly,

Power consumed by toaster oven, $P=11\ W$

Time taken, t = 9 minutes = 0.15 hour

Energy used by toaster, $W_{toaster}=P\times t$

$W_{toaster}=11\ W\times 0.15\ h=1.65\ Wh=0.0016\ kWh$

Hence, this is the required solution.
