The principle difference between point source and nonpoint source water pollution is _______.

Physics
1 answer:
Sedbober [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

b. the number of sources of pollution

Explanation:

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) describes the point source pollution as “any particular identifiable cause of pollution from which pollutants are released, such as a channel, ditch, boat or factory chimney”. Factories and sewerage treatment of plants are two well-known types of point sources.

The distinction between the point and non point source pollution is that point cause of pollution which has a single origin or source while non point source pollution is a combination of pollutants from various origins, and not all of them are easily identified.

Answer: 600 m

Explanation:

Speed V is defined as the distance traveled d in a especific time t:  

V=\frac{d}{t}  

Where:  

V=343 m/s \approx 300 m/s is the speed of sound  

t=2 s the time you hear the thunder after you see the flash of lightning  

We need to find the distance at which you are from the lightning strike:  

300 m/s=\frac{d}{2 s}  

Finding d:  

d=(300 m/s)(2 s)  

Finally:  

d=600 m

Which actions most likely cause the domains in a ferromagnetic material to align? Check all that apply. heating the material rub
ryzh [129]

Answer:

i. rubbing the material against a magnet

ii. placing the material in a magnetic field of opposite polarity

iii. placing the material near a strong magnet

Explanation:

Ferromagnetic materials are majorly metals which can be easily attracted by a magnet. ferromagnetic materials are made up of domains, behaves as minute pieces of magnet. They can be rearranged to align when under the influence of an external magnetic field.

The alignment of the domains in a ferromagnetic material can be caused by either of the following: rubbing the material against a magnet, placing the material in a magnetic field of opposite polarity, placing the material near a strong magnet.

A 0.40-kg block is attached to the end of a horizontal ideal spring and rests on a frictionless surface. The block is pulled so
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

160N/m

Explanation:

According to Hooke's law which states that the extension of an elastic material is directly proportional to the applied force provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded. Mathematically,

F = ke where

F is the applied force

k is the spring constant

e is the extension

From the formula k = F/e

Since the body accelerates when the block is released, F = ma according to Newton's second law of motion.

The spring constant k = ma/e where

m is the mass of the block = 0.4kg

a is the acceleration = 8.0m/s²

e is the extension of the spring = 2.0cm = 0.02m

K = 0.4×8/0.02

K = 3.2/0.02

K = 160N/m

The spring constant of the spring is therefore 160N/m
