The use of pesticides in farming land is example of non-point source pollution. The area of emitting of pollution is very large. That is why, it is difficult to monitor and control this type of pollution.

Americans get their water for everyday use through aquifer. Aquifers can be conserve by avoiding high amount of chemical uses and reducing household waste. Also the sustainable use of water cause conservation of natural resource.

Aquifer are basically underground water present in ground pores. The structure of aquifer just look like sponge. The water moves through the porous surfaces of the ground.

The thermal energy in a heat engine is used to move a piston. Which best describes why this is possible?
Natali [406]

Answer:

The increase in thermal energy results in an increase in pressure.

Explanation:

  • The increase in entropy is directly related to the increase in temperature. So the thermal energy in heat engine increases the temperature of that surrounding.
  • Higher temperature means the kinetic energy of particles is also higher, their vibration is increasing. So it increases the pressure (ideal gas law).
  • In this way the increment in the thermal energy in heat engine moves piston by increasing the pressure.

Which equation represents the law of conservation of energy in a closed system?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

KE + PE = KE + PE

Explanation:

In a closed system, the mechanical energy of the system is constant.

Mechanical energy is given by the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy; mathematically:

U = KE + PE

where

KE is the kinetic energy

PE is the potential energy

This means that if we consider two situations, one at the beginning and one at the end, the value of U will not change if the system is closed; this means that the sum KE + PE will remain the same, so we can write:

KE + PE = KE + PE
