Answer:

Everything is explained below in the Explanation section.

Explanation:

<em>a) TMDL stands for = Total Daily Maximum Loads</em>

TMDL is the measure of total maximum amount of pollutant allowed in the water body. TMDL is a important tool to maintain the quality of water and measure the aquatic pollution.

Whereas, the formula to calculate TMDL is as follows:

TMDL =  Sum of waste load allocations (point source) + Sum of load allocations (non point sources and background) + Margin of Safety

 

<em>b) Dead Zones :</em>

Dead zones are zones which are termed as hypoxic which are low in oxygen because of the extreme aquatic pollution caused by human activities which in result deplete the oxygen level above the and below the oceans most required by the marine life. In addition, dead zones are those areas where oxygen is low and life in danger is high comparatively to other areas of oceans.

The main cause of that dead zones is because of eutrophication which means adding dangerous chemical nutrients in the water in exceeding amounts.

<em>c) Why Ammonia-nitrogen is detrimental to waterbodies: </em>

1. Ammonia nitrogen is a very toxic pollutant often found in landfills and sewage and waste products.

2. Ammonia nitrogen reduces the ability of water to disinfect its inhabitants and it reduces the purity. Furthermore, it changes the smell of the water and pollutes it.

3. Last but not the least, if you increase the concentration of ammonia nitrogen, the dissolved oxygen rate will be decreased and it has a inverse relation which is very dangerous to marine life underwater.

<em>d) Streeter-Phelps DO curve:</em>

Please refer to the attachment, I have attached the curve.

This curve is used to evaluate the dissolved oxygen in the water with varying distance.

It can be further studied from the curve that, how much loss sewage and other pollutants can endure upon the marine life.

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

speed by mass attain is 55.86 m/s

Explanation:

given data

glucose = 10 g

mass = 100 kg

to find out

speed by mass attain

solution

we know glucose have 180 g molecular weight and

that 1 g glucose produce energy = 2816/180 × 10³ J

so here 10 g of glucose produce energy =  1.56 × 10^{5} J

so here energy release = 1/2 × mv²

1.56 × 10^{5}  = 1/2 × (100)v²

v² = 3.12 × 10³

and v = 55.86 m/s

so speed by mass attain is 55.86 m/s

netineya [11]

Answer:

9500 kJ; 9000 Btu

Explanation:

Data:

m = 100 lb

T₁ = 25 °C

T₂ = 75 °C

Calculations:

1. Energy in kilojoules

ΔT = 75 °C - 25 °C = 50 °C  = 50 K

m = \text{100 lb} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kg}}{\text{2.205 lb}} \times \dfrac{\text{1000 g}}{\text{1 kg}}= 4.54 \times 10^{4}\text{ g}\\\\\begin{array}{rcl}q & = & mC_{\text{p}}\Delta T\\& = & 4.54 \times 10^{4}\text{ g} \times 4.18 \text{ J$\cdot$K$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$} \times 50 \text{ K}\\ & = & 9.5 \times 10^{6}\text{ J}\\ & = & \textbf{9500 kJ}\\\end{array}

2. Energy in British thermal units

\text{Energy} = \text{9500 kJ} \times \dfrac{\text{1 Btu}}{\text{1.055 kJ}} = \text{9000 Btu}

Consider a space shuttle weighing 100 kN. It is travelling at 310 m/s for 30 minutes. At the same time, it descends 2200 m. Cons
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

work done = 48.88 × 10^{9} J

Explanation:

given data

mass = 100 kN

velocity =  310 m/s

time = 30 min = 1800 s

drag force = 12 kN

descends = 2200 m

to find out

work done by the shuttle engine

solution

we know that work done here is

work done = accelerating work - drag work - descending work

put here all value

work done = ( mass ×velocity ×time  - force ×velocity ×time  - mass ×descends )  10³ J

work done = ( 100 × 310 × 1800  - 12×310 ×1800  - 100 × 2200 )  10³ J

work done = 48.88 × 10^{9} J
