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

If the designers of submarines do not appropriately account for hydrostatic pressure,
andre [41]

Answer:

A) the pressure could crush the submarine

Explanation:

  • The submarines are mainly used for defense purposes.
  • In world war 1 and 2 the submarines played a vital role in the war.
  • The submarines work according to the principle of buoyancy.
  • According to this principle, when seawater is filled inside the tank in a required amount, the submarines sink.
  • When the seawater is expelled, the submarine rises to above the sea.
  • Most of the time, it dives deep into the sea, the hydrostatic pressure should be taken into account.
  • If the hydrostatic pressure is not considered, the pressure could crush the submarine.

Shelby the Skater's rocket provides a forward force of
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a=3.17\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Force force acting on the Skater's rocket is 220 N

Resistive force acting on it, F' = 30 N

Mass of Shelby, m = 60 kg

We need to find the acceleration of Shelby. Net force acting on Shelby is given by :

Net force = 220-30

= 190 N

The formula of net force is :

F = ma

a is acceleration of Shelby

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{190}{60}\\\\a=3.17\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of Shelby is 3.17\ m/s^2

Gibbons move through the trees by swinging from successive handholds, as we have seen. To increase their speed, gibbons may brin
Sedbober [7]

By bring their legs close to their bodies, they are decreasing the length of the pendulum which help them move more quickly.

A pendulum is nothing but a body suspended from a fixed point so that it can swing back and forth under the influence of gravity.

Here in this case Gibbons are bringing their legs close to their bodies and reducing the length of the pendulum. Since as the length of the pendulum increases the speed of the movement will be reduced. By bringing their legs close to their bodies they are reducing the length and in turn their speed increase and they move quickly.
