A factory emits pollutants at a rate of 25 g/s. The factory is located between two mountain ranges resulting in an effective val

ley width of 5000 m. The height of the ceiling due to atmospheric conditions is 1000 m. During the fall and spring, a breeze that travels at a velocity of 4 m/s flows through the valley. Fortunately, the breeze coming in contains no pollutants. Based on the information given, the steady state concentration of pollutants in the valley, in micrograms per cubic meter is.

Answer:

1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the breeze = 4 m/s

w = Width of the valley = 5000 m

h = Height of the valley = 1000 m

Volumetric flow rate is given by

\dot{V}=vwh\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=4\times 5000\times 1000\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=2\times10^{7}\ \text{m}^3/\text{s}

\dot{m} = Mass flow rate of pollutant = 25 g/s = 25\times 10^6\ \mu\text{g/s}

Concentration is given by

C=\dfrac{\dot{m}}{\dot{V}}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{25\times 10^6}{2\times 10^7}\\\Rightarrow C=1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3

The steady state concentration of pollutants in the valley, is 1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3.

True or False:In a current, electrons will always flow from negative to positive.
DIA [1.3K]
It should be true: electrons low from negative toward positive to negative toward positive because opposite charges attract each other.

Define potentiol energy , kenetic energy.​
Pani-rosa [81]

Potential energy is stored energy. For example, if a bowling ball is on top of a giant hill, we say it has potential energy because it has the potential to do work which is to roll down the hill.

Kinetic energy is the energy of movement so once that ball rolls down that hill, that potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

How much force acts on one surface of a rectangular bedroom wall that is 2.20 m by 3.20 m when atmosspheric pressure is?
irakobra [83]
<span>We know that pressure is the force applied into a surface, in our case the wall of the room, so then first we will calculate the surface of this wall: S = 2.2 * 3.2 = 7.04 m2 Then we also know the atmospheric pressure in normal conditions is 1 atm. That is the same 1 atm = 101325 Pascals or 101325 N/m2 Now we need to use the formula : P = F/S where P is pressure, F is force and S is surface to calculate the force: F = P * S = 101325 * 7.04 = 713,328 Newtons Conclusion: the force acts on the wall due the air inside the room is 713,328 N</span>
