Since a typical smelt has 1.04 ppm of PCB is great lakes. So the amount of PCB in a smelt in great leak can be calculated by multiplying the mass of smelt by the pcbs present in a smelt

225 g * ( 1.04/100000) = 2.34 x10^-4 g pcbs

why does earth orbit the sun rather than any other body in the solar system? a) the mutual repulsions among all the planets hold
ElenaW [278]

Answer: c) the sun is the most massive object; gravitational attraction is related to mass.

Explanation:

Gravitational pull exists between any two objects having mass.  

F =\frac{GMm}{r^2}

where symbols have their usual meaning.

All the planets including Earth revolve around the Sun because its the most massive object in the neighborhood and thus has high gravitational pull. This gravitational pull of Sun keeps the Earth in its orbit around it.  

Hence, the correct answer is earth orbit the sun rather than any other body in the solar system because c) the sun is the most massive object; gravitational attraction is related to mass.

Find the work done in pumping gasoline that weighs 6600 newtons per cubic meter. A cylindrical gasoline tank 3 meters in diamete
almond37 [142]

Answer:

<em>work done in pumping the entire fuel is 1399761 J</em>

Explanation:

weight per volume of the gasoline = 6600 N/m^3

diameter of the tank = 3 m

length of the tank = 6 m

The height of the tractor tank above the top of the tank = 5 m

The total volume of the fuel is gotten below

we know that the tank is cylindrical.

<em>we assume that the fuel completely fills the tank.</em>

therefore, the volume of a cylinder =  

where r = radius = diameter ÷ 2 = 3/2 = 1.5 m

volume of the cylinder = 3.142 x  x 6 = 42.417 m^3

we then proceed to find the total weight of the fuel in Newton

total weight = (weight per volume) x volume

total weight = 6600 x 42.417 = 279952.2 N

therefore,

the work done to pump the fuel through to the 5 m height = (total weight of the fuel) x (height through which the fuel is pumped)

work done in pumping = 279952.2 x 5 = <em>1399761 J</em>
