Answer:

noise pollution

Explanation:

Visual pollution may be defined as a pollution that obstructs a view. It impairs one ability to see and enjoy a pleasant view. It is considered as an aesthetic issue.

The rotating blades of the windmill causes visual disturbances by intercepting the light of the sun and it causes moving shadows and the light flashes from the reflection of the sun. It also causes noise or sound as the blades rotates. Thus the combination of visual and acoustics exposures leads to the negative assessment of the windmills.

Therefore, people living near wind farms objects the windmills as they causes visual pollution as well as noise pollution.

What is the angle of deviation in a plane mirror at normal incidence?

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The deviation of a mirror is equal to twice the angle of incidence.The total angle between the straight-line path and the reflected ray is twice the angle of incidence. This is called the deviation of the light and measures the angle at which the light has strayed from its initial straight-line path.

MamaMia's Pizza purchases its pizza delivery boxes from a printing supplier. MamaMia's delivers on-average 200 pizzas each month

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

a) 138 units

b) 17 units

c) 17 units

d) Total Cost = $353.35

Explanation:

Given:

Average pizzas delivered = 200

Charge of inventory holding = 30% of cost

Lead time = 7 days

Now,

a) Economic Order Quantity = $\sqrt\frac{2\times\textup{Annual Demand}\times\textup{Cost per Order}}{\textup{Carrying cost}}$

also,

Annual Demand = 200 × 12 = 2400

Cost per Order = Cost of Box + Processing Costs

= 30 cents + $10

= $10.30

and, Carrying Cost = $\frac{\textup{Total Inventory Cost}}{\textup{total annual demand}}$

= $\frac{\textup{Total Cost per order}\times\textup{Annual demand}\times\frac{25}{100}}{\textup{Annual demand}}$

= $\frac{\$10.30\times2400}\times\frac{25}{100}}{2400}$

= $2.575

Therefore,

Economic Order Quantity = $\sqrt\frac{2\times\textup{2400}\times\textup{10.30}}{\textup{2.575}}$

= 138.56 ≈ 138 units

b) Reorder Point

= (average daily unit sales × the lead time in days) + safety stock

= ( $\frac{200}{30}\times7$

= 46.67 ≈ 47 units

c) Number of orders per year = $\frac{\textup{Annual Demand}}{\textup{Economic order quantity}}$

= $\frac{\textup{2400}}{\textup{138}}$

= 17.39 ≈ 17 units

d) Total Annual Cost (Total Inventory Cost)

= Ordering Cost + Holding Cost

Now,

The ordering Cost = Cost per Order × Total Number of orders per year

= $10.30 × 17

= $175.1

and,

Holding Cost = Average Inventory Held × Carrying Cost per unit

Average Inventory Held = $\frac{\textup{0+138}}{\textup{2}}$ = 69

Carrying Cost per unit = $2.575

Holding Cost = 69 × $2.575 =

$177.675

Therefore,

Total Cost = Ordering Cost + carrying cost

= $175.1 + $177.675 = $353.35

For the following elementary reaction 2br• -> br2-. The rate of consumption of the reaction and the rate of formation of prod

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: $-\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{d[Br^.]}{dt}=+\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}$

Explanation:

Rate of a reaction is defined as the rate of change of concentration per unit time.

Thus for reaction:

$2Br^.\rightarrow Br_2$

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

$Rate=-\frac{d[Br^.]}{2dt}$

or $Rate=+\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}$

Thus $-\frac{d[Br^.]}{2dt}=+\frac{d[Br_2]}{dt}$

An object is dropped from a vertical distance of 25.5 m above the ground, and it takes 2.28 sec to fall that distance. A second

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The second object takes 2.28 s to fall the 25.5 m.

Explanation:

In this case, both objects take the same time to fall, since no vertical velocity is added to any of them.

You can also confirm this by sepparating the second's object movement into its two directions: in the horizontal one, we have linear uniform motion, and in the vertical one, we have free fall, with exactly the same characteristics as for the first object.
