Question

The velocity of wind moving past a constant emission source changes from 4 to 2 m/sec.

Answer 1

Answer:

Concentrations will decrease to one-quarter of their initial value.

Explanation:

• The relative effects of the changes in the velocity of the wind on the pollutant concentration will decrease in one-quarter of the initial values.  

• When assuming the pollutant concentration is negligible upwind to the content downwards.  

• The concentration will be the emission rate gets reduced to the one-quarter of the initial value and then by the pollution concentration will be reduced with downwind.
