Answer:

Defined as under.

Explanation:

  • A point source pollution is a single identifiable source of pollutants like air, water, thermal and light. And has a negligible extent, distinguishes from other geometric or area sources of nonpoint, etc.
  • While nonpoint source pollution is derived from various sources. Such as results of land runoff. atmospheric drainage and seepage they may affect a body of water such as from the agricultural areas draining to a river.

How many moles of oxygen can be formed from 250 grams of aluminum oxide
Oksanka [162]
2Al₂O₃ = 4Al + 3O₂

M(A₂O₃)=101.96 g/mol
m(Al₂O₃)=250 g

n(O₂)=3m(Al₂O₃)/{2M(Al₂O₃)}

n(O₂)=3*250/{2*101.96}=3.678 mol

The majority of wind turbines consist of three blades mounted to a tower made from tubular steel. There are less common varieties with two blades, or with concrete or steel lattice towers. At 100 feet or more above the ground, the tower allows the turbine to take advantage of faster wind speeds found at higher altitudes.

Turbines catch the wind's energy with their propeller-like blades, which act much like an airplane wing. When the wind blows, a pocket of low-pressure air forms on one side of the blade. The low-pressure air pocket then pulls the blade toward it, causing the rotor to turn. This is called lift. The force of the lift is much stronger than the wind's force against the front side of the blade, which is called drag. The combination of lift and drag causes the rotor to spin like a propeller. So therefore your answer would be A.
