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.

Where’s the silicone rubber are made ? In a machine, vulcanization… explain please !!!!! I need help

Vaselesa [24]

Answer: This is done by heating a large volume of quartz sand to temperatures as high as 1800˚C. The result is pure, isolated silicon, which is allowed to cool and then ground into a fine powder. To make silicone, this fine silicon powder is combined with methyl chloride and heated once again.

The answer is below

Explanation:

$\frac{v-u}{a} =t\\\\Making \ v\ the \ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\First \ cross-multiply:\\\\v-u=at\\\\add\ u\ to \ both\ sides:\\\\v-u+u=at+u\\\\v=u+at$

$\frac{y-x^2}{x}=3z\\ \\Making\ y\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\First \ cross \ multiply:\\\\y-x^2=3xz\\\\y=3xz+x^2\\\\y=x(x+3z)$

$x+xy=y\\\\Making\ x\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\x(1+y)=y\\\\Divide\ through\ by\ 1+y\\\\\frac{x(1+y)}{1+y} =\frac{y}{1+y} \\\\x=\frac{y}{1+y}$

$x+y=xy\\\\Making\ x\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\Subtract\ x\ from \ both\ sides:\\\\x+y-x=xy-x\\\\y=xy-x\\\\y=x(y-1)\\\\Divide\ through\ by \ y-1\\\\\frac{y}{y-1} =\frac{x(y-1)}{y-1}\\ \\x=\frac{y}{y-1}$

$x=y+xy\\\\Making\ x\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\Subtract\ xy\ from \ both\ sides:\\\\x-xy=y+xy-xy\\\\x-xy=y\\\\x(1-y)=y\\\\Divide\ through\ by \ 1-y\\\\\frac{x(1-y)}{1-y} =\frac{y}{1-y}\\ \\x=\frac{y}{1-y}$

$E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2\\ \\Making\ u\ the\ subject \ of\ formula:\\\\Multiply \ through\ by \ 2\\\\2E=mv^2-mu^2\\\\mu^2=mv^2-2E\\\\Divide\ through\ by\ m:\\\\u^2=\frac{mv^2-2E}{m}\\ \\Take\ square\ root\ of \ both\ sides:\\\\u=\sqrt{\frac{mv^2-2E}{m}}$

$\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\\ \\Making\ y\ the\ subject \ of\ formula:\\\\\frac{x^2}{a^2}-1=\frac{y^2}{b^2}\\\\Multiply\ through\ by\ b^2\\\\b^2(\frac{x^2}{a^2} -1)=y^2\\\\Take\ square\ root\ of\ both\ sides:\\\\y=\sqrt{b^2(\frac{x^2}{a^2} -1)}$

$ay^2=x^3\\\\Make\ y\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\Divide\ through\ by\ a:\\\\y^2=\frac{x^3}{a}\\ \\Take\ square\ root\ of\ both\ sides:\\\\y=\sqrt{\frac{x^3}{a}} \\$

Consider the time domain waveforms below on the left. Match waveforms (a) - (e) to their respective frequency spectrum represent

lozanna [386]

Answer:

(a) ------(3). (b)------(1) (c)-----(5) (d)------(2) ------ (e) -----4

Note: Kindly find an attached copy of the diagram associated with the solution to the question below.

Sources: the diagram to this question was researched from Quizlet

Explanation:

Solution

(1) Part (a)a waveform has a high frequency components compared to another waveform. the corresponding frequency components should be high.

So for the wave form a the corresponding frequency spectrum is (3)

(2) For part (b), waveform has three harmonics, the corresponding frequency spectrum is (1)

(3) The time domain waveform plot (c) is a sine wave but there exists a dc component.

Thus x[0] ≠0

For (c) the corresponding frequency spectrum is (5)

(4) For part (d) the corresponding frequency spectrum is (2)

(5) A sine wave is made of a single frequency only and its spectrum is a single point

For (e) the corresponding frequency spectrum is (4)

two pints of ethyl ether evaporate over a period of 1,5 hours. what is the air flow necessary to remain at 10% or less of ethyl

lesya692 [45]

The air flow necessary to remain at the lower explosive level is 4515. 04cfm

<h3>How to solve for the rate of air flow</h3>

First we have to find the rate of emission. This is solved as

2pints/1.5 x 1min

= 2/1.5x60

We have the following details

SG = 0.71

LEL = 1.9%

B = 10% = 0.1 a constant

The molecular weight is given as 74.12

Then we would have Q as

403*100*0.2222 / 74.12 * 0.71 * 0.1

= Q = 4515. 04

Hence we can conclude that the air flow necessary to remain at the lower explosive level is 4515. 04cfm
