Decay of ______ waste present in waste water leads to unpleasant smell
victus00 [196]

Decay of Schizomycetes waste present in waste water leads to unpleasant smell.

These microorganisms, known as iron and sulfur bacteria, cause hydrogen sulfide to be found in water supplies. They include crenothrix and beggiatoa. Most often found in groundwater supplies, they produce an offensive odor of decaying matter. (I'm not sure)

A mass of 0.5 kg hangs motionless from a vertical spring whose length is 1.10 m and whose unstretched length is 0.50 m. Next the
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The maximum length during the motion is L_{max} = 1.45m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

           The mass  is  m =0.5 kg

            The vertical spring  length is  L = 1.10m

            The unstretched  length is  L_{un} = 1.30m

          The initial speed is v_i = 1.3m/s

          The new length of the spring L_{new} =  1.30 m

The spring constant k is mathematically represented as

                           k = -\frac{F}{y}

Where F is the force applied  = m * g = 0.5 * 9.8=4.9N

           y is the difference in weight which is   =1.10-0.50=0.6m

The negative sign is because the displacement of the spring (i.e its extension occurs against the force F)

    Now  substituting values accordingly

                    k =  \frac{4.9}{0.6}

                       = 8.17 N/m

The  elastic potential energy is given as E_{PE} = \frac{1}{2} k D^2

  where D is this the is the displacement  

Since Energy is conserved the total elastic potential energy would be

             E_T = initial  \ elastic\ potential \ energy + kinetic \ energy

            E_T = \frac{1}{2} k D_{max}^2 =   \frac{1}{2} k D^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Substituting value accordingly

                \frac{1}{2} *8.17 *D_{max}^2 =\frac{1}{2} * 8.17*(1.30 - 0.50)^2 + \frac{1}{2} * 0.5 *1.30^2

                4.085 * D_{max}^2 = 3.69

                 D^2_{max} = 0.9033

                D_{max} = 0.950m

So to obtain total length we would add the unstretched length

 So we have

                  L_{max} = 0.950 + 0.5 = 1.45m
