Answer:

Thermal Pollution

Explanation:

Thermal pollution is a <em>term</em> use to describe the <u>final result caused from the  water used as a coolant by power plants and/or industrial companies</u>.<em> It changes the water temperature and its quality. It is usually caused from humans or companies especially manufacturing companies - They use it for their personal needs. The end product of the water after being discarded is Thermal Pollution</em>

The potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart gun, with a spring constant of 32.50 N/m, is 0.640 J. Find by how
liraira [26]

Answer:

A

   x = 0.198456 \ m

B

    h  =  1.3061 \  m

C

 v =  5.06 \  m/s

D

  d = 4.0273 \  m

Explanation:

Considering the first question

From the question we are told that

   The spring constant is  k  =  32.50 N/m

    The potential energy is  PE  =  0.640 \ J

Generally the potential  energy stored in spring  is mathematically represented as   PE  =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  x^2

=>    0.640=  \frac{1}{2}  * 32.50  *  x^2  

=>    x = \sqrt{0.03938}  

=>    x = 0.198456 \ m  

Considering the second question

 From the question we are told that

   The mass of the dart is  m =  0.050 kg

Generally from the law of energy conservation

         PE =  mgh

=>       0.640   =  0.050 *  9.8  *  h

=>      h  =  1.3061 \  m

Considering the third  question

   The height at which the dart was fired horizontally is  H  =   3.90\  m

Generally  from the law of energy conservation

         PE = KE

Here  KE is kinetic energy of the dart which is mathematical represented as

     KE  =  \frac{1}{2}  *  mv^2

=>      0.640 =  \frac{1}{2}  * 0.050 *  v^2

=>       v^2 = 25.6

=>       v =  5.06 \  m/s

Considering the fourth question

Generally the total time of flight of the dart is mathematically represented as

       t  =  \frac{ 2 *  H }{g}

=>     t  =  \frac{ 2 * 3.90 }{9.8 }

=>     t  =  0.7959 \ s

Generally the  horizontal distance from the equilibrium position to the ground is  mathematically represented as

       d =  v  *   t

=>     d = 5.06  *   0.7959

=>     d = 4.0273 \  m

____ [38]

The charge on each of the equally charged drops of hairspray willl be 7 × 10 ⁻¹³ C

<h3>What is Columb's law?</h3>

The force of attraction between two charges, according to Coulomb's law, is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Similar charges repel each other, whereas charges that are opposed attract each other.

Given data;

Electric force,F = 9 × 10 ⁻⁹ N

Distance between charges,d = 7 × 10⁻⁴ m

Chrge,q₁ = q₂ =q C

From Columb's law;

\rm F = K \frac{q_1q_2}{d^2} \\\\ 9 \times 10^{-9}  = 9 \times 10^9 \frac{q^2}{(7 \times 10^{-4})^2} \\\\ q^2 = 4.9 \times 10^{-25} \\\\  q = 7 \times 10^{-13} \ C

Hence the charge on each of the equally charged drops of hairspray willl be 7 × 10 ⁻¹³ C

Write down the effect of humidity and temperature on the speed of sound.​
finlep [7]

Answer:

The speed of sound is affected by temperature and humidity. Because it is less dense, sound passes through hot air faster than it passes through cold air. ... The attenuation of sound in air is affected by the relative humidity. Dry air absorbs far more acoustical energy than does moist air.
