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.

9. A 2 liter bottle of Coke weighs about 2 kilograms. If that bottle were combined with an equal amount of anti-Coke, how many J
givi [52]

Answer:

The amount of energy that would be released is equal to 4182 Joules.

Explanation:

Total amount of coke = 2 kg = 2000 g

1 calorie per gram is equal to 4.184 Joules of energy

4.184 J/gC*2000g = 8368 J

1 food calorie is roughly equal to 4186 J

8368 - 4186

Therefore, the amount of energy that would be released is equal to 4182 Joules.

According to x-ray observations, the space between galaxies in a galaxy cluster is?
crimeas [40]

According to x-ray observations, the space between galaxies in a galaxy cluster is very hot. It is because the matter between galaxies (often called the intergalactic medium) is mostly hot, ionized hydrogen with bits of heavier elements such as carbon, oxygen and silicon thrown in.

Massive structures are collapsing than at earlier times. Large collapsing structures lead to higher velocity intergalactic shocks and, as a result, significant intergalactic shock heating, with some gas heated well above the 10^{4} K temperatures.

Heating also occurs as galaxies expel out most of the gas that fell into them. The final product is a warm/hot phase, with temperatures of > 10^{5} K.

Now, Let's know how do you use X-rays to make space observations?

X-radiation is absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere, so instruments to detect X-rays must be taken to high altitude by balloons, sounding rockets, and satellites.
