How can groundwater flow, elevation can transport contaminates

Physics
1 answer:
Pavel [41]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: it's under explanation

Explanation:Groundwater contamination occurs when man-made products such as gasoline, oil, road salts and chemicals get into the groundwater and cause it to become unsafe and unfit for human use. Materials from the land's surface can move through the soil and end up in the groundwater.

A blue puck has a velocity of 0i – 3j m/s and a mass of 4 kg. A gold puck has a velocity of 12i – 5j m/s and a mass of 6 kg. Wha

By definition, the kinetic energy is given by:
 K = (1/2) * m * v ^ 2
 where
 m = mass
 v = speed
 We must then find the speed of both objects:
 blue puck
 v = root ((0) ^ 2 + (- 3) ^ 2) = 3
 gold puck
 v = root ((12) ^ 2 + (- 5) ^ 2) = 13
 Then, the kinetic energy of the system will be:
 K = (1/2) * m1 * v1 ^ 2 + (1/2) * m2 * v2 ^ 2
 K = (1/2) * (4) * (3 ^ 2) + (1/2) * (6) * (13 ^ 2)
 K = <span> 525</span> J

A block of wood has density 0.500 g/cm3 and mass 2 000 g. It floats in a container of oil (the oil's density is 0.750 g/cm3). Wh
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

2,666.67cm^3

Explanation:

All we need to do in this problem is divide the mass of the wooden block to the oil's density.

2000/0.750 ≈ 2,666.67cm^3

Best of Luck!

A 0.09-kg lead bullet traveling 182 m/s strikes an armor plate and comes to a stop. If all of the bullet's energy is converted t
Artemon [7]

Answer: Δθ = 127.4 K

Explanation: by using the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the bullet equals the heat energy on the plate.

Kinetic energy of bullet = mv²/2

Heat energy = mcΔθ

Where m = mass of bullet = 0.09kg, v = velocity of bullet = 182 m/s, c = specific heat capacity of lead bullet = 130 j/kgk

Δθ = change in temperature

mv²/2 = mcΔθ

With 'm' on both sides of the equation, they cancel out each other, hence we have that

v²/2 = cΔθ

v² = 2cΔθ

Δθ= v²/2c

Δθ = (182)²/2×130

Δθ = 33124/260

Δθ = 127.4 K

A projectile is fored vertically upward with an initial velocity of 190 m/s. Find the maximum height of the projectile.​
RSB [31]

Answer:

3683.67 m

Explanation:

Formula for maximum height of projectile is given by the equation;

h = u²/2g

Where u is initial velocity and g is acceleration due to gravity

We are given u = 190 m/s

Thus;

h = 190²/9.8

h = 36100/9.8

h = 3683.67 m

A 1kg dictionary is resting on a table that is 1.5m high. How much potential energy
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Potential energy = 14.7 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass, m = 1kg

Height, h = 1.5m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

P.E = mgh

Where, P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

P.E = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have;

P.E = 1*9.8*1.5

P.E = 14.7 Joules.
