Answer:
12N
Explanation:
Suppose the string mass is negligible, the total mass of the 2 block system is 6 + 9 = 15 kg
So the acceleration of the system when subjected to 30N force is
a = F / M = 30 / 15 = 2 m/s2
So both blocks would have the same acceleration, however, the force acting on the 6kg block would have a magnitude of
f = am = 2 * 6 = 12N
This is the tension in the string between the blocks
Difference between solid friction and viscosity is as follows: Viscosity is proportional to the surface area whereas solid friction is independent of area of solid surfaces in contact. Viscous force on the body depends upon its velocity in the viscous media. But, friction does not depend on the velocity of the body.

Answer:
Acid mine drainage is dissolved toxic materials wash from mines into nearby lakes and streams.
Explanation:
Acid mine drainage is the flow of acidic water with pH typically between 2 and 4, and high concentrations of other dissolved toxic materials from mines into nearby lakes and streams. It mainly occurs during metal sulfide mining, when the metal sulfide ore such as pyrite (FeS2) is exposed to water and oxygen from air to produce soluble iron and sulfuric acid.
Microorganisms, especially acidophile bacteria like Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans grow by pyrite oxidation, i.e., oxidizing the Fe²⁺ in pyrite to Fe³⁺, which again react with pyrite and water to produce sulfuric acid. Then the acidic water flows into nearby water sources and reduces the pH value of water in those sources. As a result, heavy metals such as copper, lead, mercury, etc in other mineral ores also get dissolved into the water. The action of acidophile bacteria also increases the rate and degree of acid-mine drainage process.
The acid mine drainage causes water pollution and adversely affect the aquatic plants and animals. It also results in the contamination of drinking water, corrosion of infrastructures such as bridges, etc.
