04-9 (ML 6.12) A pristine stream flowing at 100 cubic feet per second (cfs) in the Rocky Mountains contains 5 mg/L of suspended

solids (SS). During the spring, ice melt conveys an additional 250 mg/L of TSS at a rate of 20 cfs into the stream. Determine the concentration of TSS in the stream during the spring. (Hint: Treat the ice melt as a secondary stream added to the first.) Answer: 46 mg/L

Answer:

C_{mix} = 45.833 mg/l

Explanation:

Give data:

flow rate of stream is Q_1 100 cfs

concentration of suspended solids SS_1 5 mg/L

During spring time,

concentration of TSS = SS_2 = 250 mg/l

flow rate of stream Q_2= 20 cfs

we know that, concentration of mix is given as

C_{mix} = \frac{Q_1 SS_1 +  Q_2 SS_2}{Q_1 +Q_2}

C_{mix} = \frac{100\times 5 + 20\times 250}{100+20}

C_{mix} = 45.833 mg/l

A ball is thrown directly downward with an initial speed of 7.65 m/s froma height of 29.0 m. After what time interval does it st
coldgirl [10]

Answer: 1.77 s

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the kinematic equation for the position, so we have:

xf= xo+vo*t+(g*t^2)/2  we can consider the origin on the top so the xo=0 and xf=29 m; then

(g*t^2)/2+vo*t-xf=0  vo is the initail velocity, vo=7.65 m/s

then by solving the quadratric equation in t

t=1.77 s

What is the atomic mass of an element?
Alina [70]

Atomic mass is the mass of an atom, particle, or molecule. The atomic mass is determined by the number of protons and neutrons in the atom. For example, Oxygen has 8 protons (as seen by the atomic number) and 8 neutrons which gives oxygen an atomic mass of 16.

How many joules of work are done against a truck when a force of 50 N pushes it 1 kilometer away
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Work = 50,000 J

Explanation:

Work = force * distance

Given that,

  • force = 50N
  • Distance = 1km = 1000m

Work = 50 * 1000

Work = 50,000 J

A woman walked 115 m. As she did so, her speed increased from 4.20 m/s to 5.00 m/s. How long did it take her to walk this distan
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

25 seconds

Explanation:

Assuming the woman is accelerating at a constant rate of a \;\;m/s^2 from the initial velocity, u=4.20 m/s, to the final velocity, v=5.00 m/s.

Let she takes t seconds to cover the distance, s=115 m.

As acceleration, a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{5-4.2}{t}

\Rightarrow at=0.8\cdots(i)

Now, from the equation of motion

s=ut+\frac 12 at^2

\Rightarrow s=ut+\frac 12 at(t)

\Rightarrow 115=4.2t+\frac 12 \times 0.8 t [ from equation (i)]

\Rightarrow 115=(4.2+0.4)t

\Rightarrow t= 115/4.6 = 25 seconds.

Hence, she takes 25 seconds to walk the distance.
