Answer:

For most uses you'll want your water heated to 120 F(49 C) In this example you'd need a demand water heater that produces a temperature rise and it will take about 2 hours

What is a radio wave made up of? Molecules? Electrons? Other?
mafiozo [28]

Radio waves are radiated by charged particles when they are accelerated. They are produced artificially by time-varying electric currents, consisting of electrons flowing back and forth in a specially-shaped metal conductor called an antenna. ... Radio waves are received by another antenna attached to a radio receiver.

It is desired to produce and aligned carbon fiber-epoxy matrix composite having a longitudinal tensile strength of 630 MPa. Calc
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Given that:

Diameter (D) = 0.03 mm = 0.00003 m, length (L) = 2.4 mm = 0.0024 m, longitudinal tensile strength (\sigma_{cd})=630\ MPa = 630*10^6\ Pa, Fracture strength

(\sigma_f)=5100\ MPa=5100*10^6\ Pa,fiber-matrix\ stres(\sigma_m)=17.5\ MPa=17.5*10^6\ Pa,matrix\ strength=\tau_c=17\ MPa=17 *10^6\ Pa

a) The critical length (L_c) is given by:

L_c=\sigma_f*(\frac{D}{2*\tau_c} )=5100*10^6*\frac{0.00003}{2*17*10^6}=0.0045\ m=4.5\ mm

The critical length (4.5 mm) is greater than the given length, hence th composite can be produced.

b) The volume fraction (Vf) is gotten from the formula:

\sigma_{cd}=\frac{L*\tau_c}{D}*V_f+\sigma_m(1-V_f)\\\\V_f=\frac{\sigma_{cd}-\sigma_{m}}{\frac{L*\tau_c}{D}-\sigma_{m}}  \\\\Substituting:\\\\V_f=\frac{630*10^6-17.5*10^6}{\frac{0.0024*17*10^6}{0.00003} -17.5*10^6} \\\\V_f=0.456

A small lake with volume of 160,000 m^3 receives agricultural drainage waters that contain 150 mg / L total dissolved solids (TD
Stels [109]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that : -

The desirable limit is 500 mg / l , but

allowable upto 2000 mg / l.

The take volume is V = 160.000 m3

V = 160 , 000 x 103 l

The crainage gives 150 mg / l and lake has initialy 100 mg / l

Code of tpr frpm drawn = 150 x 60, 000 x 1000

Ci = 9000 kg / gr

Cl = 100 x 160,000 x 1000

Cl = 16, 000 kg

Since allowable limit = 2000 mg / l

Cn = ( 2000 x 160, 00 x 1000 )

= 320, 000 kg

so, each year the rate increases, by 9000 kg / yr

Read level = ( 320, 000 - 16,000 )

Li = 304, 000 kg

Tr=<u>304,000</u>

      900

=33.77

How is the energy harnessed and converted into useful energy?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

1. How energy is harnessed?  

Another way to tap solar energy is by collecting the sun's heat. Solar thermal power plants use heat from the sun to create steam, which can then be used to make electricity. On a smaller scale, solar panels that harness thermal energy can be used for heating water in homes, other buildings, and swimming pools.

2. How is solar energy converted into useful energy?

Solar panels convert the sun's light into usable solar energy using N-type and P-type semiconductor material. When sunlight is absorbed by these materials, the solar energy knocks electrons loose from their atoms, allowing the electrons to flow through the material to produce electricity.

There is evidence that liquid water existed on Mars at some time in the past. What is the evidence found indicating the presence
Norma-Jean [14]
There mag be water on Mars but it’s not very easy to spot, but that is besides the point,

Mars is a smaller planet then Earth, thus it has less gravity, meaning when water evaporates into the atmosphere of the planet the water slowly escapes into space, so there is less and less water on the planet.

Hope this helps!
