Answer:

1) Adverse effect on aquatic life also increase in biological oxygen demand.

2) Biomagnification of pollutants

Explanation:

Water pollution is caused by unwanted addition of waste, animal debris, industrial effluents etc in a water body.

Water pollution may cause many direct and indirect harmful effects on environment. To name a few:

a) Decrease in level of oxygen leading to death of aquatic organism like fish.

Increase in biological oxygen demand.

b) Biomagnification: a pollutant may enter food chain from water and some pollutant may enter food chain contaminating other members of food chain.

The average speed :

1. 10.44 m/s

2. 10.42 m/s

3. 9.26 m/s

The distance 100 m have the greatest average speed

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Given

Distance and time of runner

Required

Average speed

Solution

<em> Average speed : total distance : total time </em>

1. d = 100 m, t = 9.58 s

Average speed : 100 : 9.58 = 10.44 m/s

2. d=200 m, t=19.19 s

Average speed : 200 : 19.19 = 10.42 m/s

3. d=400 m, t = 43.18 s

Average speed : 400 : 43.18 = 9.26 m/s

The distance 100 m have the greatest average speed

Water readily sticks to many other substances, a property called ______. Water readily sticks to many other substances, a proper

Ahat [919]

Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

Cohesion is usually defined as the contrasting property by which the water molecules are attached to one another, and adhesion is the property by which the molecular substances are linked to the molecules of other substances.

Since, the water molecules are able to form inter-molecular hydrogen bonding, so they are comprised of strong cohesive force.

And, as the water molecules are able to stick to the walls of the container, so they tend to show more of the properties for adhesion.

Thus, according to the given condition, water molecules are sticking to other substances and this is the property of adhesion.

Hence, the correct answer is option (2).
