8 0

Explanation:

Drinking water requirement in town 2.0 m^3/s of water per second

nitrate in local well  nitrate per 15 \mathrm{m}^{3} of water

nitrate in distant reservoir =5 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{m}^{3}

Let the flow rate of well

flow rate of reservoir =y m^{3} / s

Drinking water requirement is 45 \mathrm{ppm} or 45 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{m}^{3}

therefore, the total flow of drinking water

Light bending at a boundary is caused by differences in the speed of light in different materials. The greater the difference in
olasank [31]

Answer:

How much does light bend? When light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to change direction slightly. This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.

1. The diagram shows a satellite traveling in uniform circular motion around the Earth.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

M V R = constant      angular momentum is constant because  no forces act in the direction of V

Since M (mass) = constant

V R = constant

The force is directed along the gravitational force vector (towards the center of rotation)

A 2-kg box is pushed by a force of 4 N for 2 seconds. It has an initial velocity vo = 2 m/s to the right. NOTE: Since this probl
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Kf= 36 J

W(net) = 32 J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 2 kg

F= 4 N

t= 2 s

Initial velocity ,u= 2 m/s

We know that rate of change of linear momentum is called force.

F= dP/dt

F.t = ΔP

ΔP = Pf - Pi

ΔP = m v  - m u

v= Final velocity

By putting the values

4 x 2 = 2 ( v - 2)

8 =  2 ( v - 2)

4 = v - 2

v= 6 m/s

The final kinetic energy Kf

Kf= 1/2 m v²

Kf= 0.5 x 2 x 6²

Kf= 36 J

Initial kinetic energy Ki

Ki = 1/2 m u²

Ki= 0.5 x 2 x 2²

Ki = 4 J

We know that net work is equal to the change in kinetic energy

W(net) = Kf - Ki

W(net) = 36 - 4

W(net) = 32 J

Consider two tubes filled with water at the same height, one with fresh water and the other tube with salt water. The pressure i
Olegator [25]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The correct option for the question is B that is salt water. In salt water, the density of water is higher so the pressure at the end of tube containing salt water will be greater. As according to the hydrostatic law the pressure at a given point will be directly proportional to the distance travelled as well.
