Rain water that mixes with sewage has two effects on treatment plant performance. The first issue is that it thins out the concentration of sewage. This may sound like a good thing but it's not. Wastewater treatment is a biological process and like everything that involves living things it requires a regular food supply to survive. If you thin out the food supply you can expect the biology to perform poorly. Even so, this generally doesn't cause significant problems. Instead it just makes normal performance a little worse then returns to normal once the flow goes back down.

Answer:

Explanation:

Ya gon find the Kenitic Energy first

K=½mv²===> K=½×0.2×(0.2)²===> 0.1(0.04)===> 0.004

and now the replacement:

0.004=½×0.4V²====> v²=0.02===> V=0.14m/s

Julianne went to a restaurant to have a taste of her favorite fried chicken and spaghetti. She drove 2 km, east and then 8.5 km,

GREYUIT [131]

Julianne’s displacement from her origin is equal to 10.015 kilometers.

Given the following data:

Distance A = 2 km, East.

Distance B = 8.5 km, Northeast.

To calculate Julianne’s displacement from her origin:

<h3>How to calculate displacement.</h3>

We would denote the two (2) unit vectors along the East and Northeast directions by i and j respectively.

Note: Northeast is at angle of 45° with the East.

In terms of vectors, the distances becomes:

Distance A = 2i

$Distance\;B=8.5 [(cos 45i + sin 45j)]\\\\Distance\;B=(\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } i \;+\;\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } j)$

For the resultant displacement:

$D^2 = [(2+\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } )^2+ (\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } )^2\\\\D =\sqrt{[(2+\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } )^2+ (\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } )^2} \\\\D=2+\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } + \frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} }$

D = 10.015 kilometers.

An ideal monatomic gas at temperature T is held in a container. If the gas is compressed isothermally, that is at constant tempe

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a) 0 J

b) W = nRTln(Vf/Vi)

c) ΔQ = nRTln(Vf/Vi)

d) ΔQ = W

Explanation:

a) To find the change in the internal energy you use the 1st law of thermodynamics:

$\Delta U=\Delta Q-W$

Q: heat transfer

W: work done by the gas

The gas is compressed isothermally, then, there is no change in the internal energy and you have

ΔU = 0 J

b) The work is done by the gas, not over the gas.

The work is given by the following formula:

$\\W=nRTln(\frac{V_f}{V_i})$

n: moles

R: ideal gas constant

T: constant temperature

Vf: final volume

Vi: initial volume

Vf < Vi, then W < 0 and the work is done on the gas

c) The gas has been compressed. Thus, its temperature increases and heat has been transferred to the gas.

The amount of heat is equal to the work done W

$\Delta U = \Delta Q-W\\\\0=\Delta Q-W\\\\\Delta Q=W=nRTln(\frac{V_f}{V_i})$

Rom4ik [11]

The correct option is D. Soil can best be described as the loose covering of weathered rocks and decaying organic matter. There are different types of soil, the type of soil formed depends majorly on the type of parent rock from which the soil is formed and the amount of organic matter present in the soil.

A dumbell has a mass of 95 kg. What force must be applied to accelerate it upward at 2.2 m/s2?

Sveta_85 [38]

A :-) F = ma
Given - m = 95 kg
a = 2.2 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
F = 95 x 2.2
F = 209
