Which of the following would most likely be considered nonpoint source pollution

Physics
1 answer:
fredd [130]3 years ago
8 0
The best answer is b) increased turbidity from erosion.

Nonpoint source pollution generally happens as a result of many systems interacting, and is not directly attributed to one event or pollutant. Generally, natural environmental systems participate in pollution of this kind, regardless of whether or not human activity was a factor. Examples include water runoff, or erosion. 

The other pollutants listed have a direct cause and direct effect, the animal waste goes directly from the animals to the ground they live on, the car shop directly sumps the oil on the ground, and the oil tank leaks directly into the earth. Erosion causing turbidity is a less direct form of pollution, and is due to the synthesis of several natural phenomena<span />

A 5.0 kg mass is suspended from a spring. Pulling the mass down by an additional 10 cm takes a force of 20 N. If the mass is the
Rudik [331]

Answer:

0.99 seconds

Explanation:

The problem depicts a simple harmonic motion.

Now, from Hooke's law,

The spring constant is given as;

k =F/x

where:

x is the displacement of the spring's end from its equilibrium position

F is the restoring force exerted by the spring on that end

From the question, F = 20N while x = 10cm = 0.1m. Thus,

K = 20/0.1 = 200 N/m

Now, time to take for the mass to return to its starting point is a period

The period oscillation of the mass is given as;

T = 2π√m/k

Where m = mass = 5kg

T = 2π√(5/200)

T = 0.99 s

Calculate the initial speed of a box which slides on a horizontal floor surface and comes to rest after sliding 2 s. The coeffic
NARA [144]

A box sliding on a horizontal floor surface starts out moving at 4.9 m/s and stops after 2 seconds. The surface and the box have a kinetic friction has friction coefficient of 0.25 (g=9.8 ms-2).

The speed of an object at the start of a measurement, or an initial state, is known as the initial speed. The ratio of distance travelled to travel time, also known as the average speed, is the sum of the initial and final speeds. The difference between initial and ending speeds is the speed change. A force that acts between moving surfaces is referred to as kinetic friction. A force acting in opposition to the direction of a moving body on the surface is felt.

Interval (t) equals 2 seconds

Kinetic friction coefficient is 0.25.

gravity-induced acceleration (g) = 9.8 m/s2.

Coming to a stop at a final velocity  of 0 m/s.

Regular force  equals mg

Kinetic friction force is given by  = k.

N = μkmg

I = (delta P) (delta P)

Vo = (0.25)(9.8)(2) (2)

Vo = 4.9m/s

Express the vector R<br> B<br> in terms of A, B, C, and Ď, the edges of a<br> parallelogram.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

R=0.5B+0.5C+2A+D

Explanation:

By the triangular law of vector addition

vector R= vector B- vector D

As A,B,C,D are edges of the parallelogram,

A is parallel to D but opposite in direction.

Therefore

A = (-D);A//D;

2A=-2D

B is parallel to C and in same direction.

B//C\\B=C\\

0.5B=0.5C\\

R= B-D;\\R= 0.5B+0.5B-D;\\R=0.5B+0.5C-D;\\R=0.5B+0.5C-2D+D;\\R=0.5B+0.5C+2A+D;
