33. What steps can you take to minimize your risks from air pollution?

Physics

Explanation:

As global awareness of air pollution rises, so does the imperative to provide evidence-based recommendations for strategies to mitigate its impact. While public policy has a central role in reducing air pollution, exposure can also be reduced by personal choices. Qualified evidence supports limiting physical exertion outdoors on high air pollution days and near air pollution sources, reducing near-roadway exposure while commuting, utilising air quality alert systems to plan activities, and wearing facemasks in prescribed circumstances. Other strategies include avoiding cooking with solid fuels, ventilating and isolating cooking areas, and using portable air cleaners fitted with high-efficiency particulate air filters. We detail recommendations to assist providers and public health officials when advising patients and the public regarding personal-level strategies to mitigate risk imposed by air pollution, while recognising that well-designed prospective studies are urgently needed to better establish and validate interventions that benefit respiratory health in this context.

Q1 is located at the origin, Q2 is located at x = 2.50 cm and Q3 is located at x = 3.50 cm. Q1 has a charge of +4.92μC and Q3 ha
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

+1.11\mu C

Explanation:

A charge located at a point will experience a zero electrostatic force if the resultant electric field on it due to any other charge(s) is zero.

Q_1 is located at the origin. The net force on it will only be zero if the resultant electric field intensity due to Q_2 and Q_3 at the origin is equal to zero. Therefore we can perform this solution without necessarily needing the value of Q_1.

Let the electric field intensity due to Q_2 be +E_2 and that due to Q_3 be -E_3 since the charge is negative. Hence at the origin;

+E_2-E_3=0..................(1)

From equation (1) above, we obtain the following;

E_2=E_3.................(2)

From Coulomb's law the following relationship holds;

+E_2=\frac{kQ_2}{r_2^2}\\  

-E_3=\frac{kQ_3}{r_3^2}

where r_2 is the distance of Q_2 from the origin, r_3 is the distance of Q_3 from the origin and k is the electrostatic constant.

It therefore means that from equation (2) we can write the following;

\frac{kQ_2}{r_2^2}=\frac{kQ_3}{r_3^2}.................(3)

k can cancel out from both side of equation (3), so that we finally obtain the following;

\frac{Q_2}{r_2^2}=\frac{Q_3}{r_3^2}................(4)

Given;

Q_2=?\\r_2=2.5cm=0.025m\\Q_3=-2.18\mu C=-2.18* 10^{-6}C\\r_3=3.5cm=0.035m

Substituting these values into equation (4); we obtain the following;

\frac{Q_2}{0.025^2}=\frac{2.18*10^{-6}}{0.035^2}\\\\hence;\\\\Q_2=\frac{0.025^2*2.18*10^{-6}}{0.035^2}\\

Q_2=\frac{0.00136*10^{-6}}{0.00123}=1.11*10^{-6}C\\\\Q_3=+1.11\mu C

Over the last several decades scientists have considered the problem of nonrenewable natural resources, such as fossil fuels. Hu

The statement "Good locations for turbines are limited" describes a drawback to wind energy.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wind energy is one of the most useful and efficient renewable energy sources. But nothing is ideal in this universe and the same thing applies for wind energy also. The generation of electricity from wind energy requires setting up of turbines.

And these turbines can be set up in plane areas which is free from any disturbance except wind flow. In open area and flat plane surface only the turbines can rotate freely with the effect of wind.

But regions where the wind flow is minimum due to snow formation like the northern region of earth, the turbines cannot be set up there. So the locations for setting up of turbines are limited for good outcome in wind energy. This is one of the drawback of wind energy.

What is power?
hammer [34]
We can define power as the rate of doing work, it is the work done in unit time. The SI unit of power is Watt (W) which is joules per second (J/s). Sometimes the power of motor vehicles and other machines are given in terms of Horsepower (hp) which is approximately equal to 745.7 watts.


Power is the rate at which a force is applied to an object for example.current wire

If a wave has a wavelength of 9 meters and a period of 0.006, what is the velocity of the wave?
lana66690 [7]

<u>Answer</u>

D. 1,500 m/s

<u>Explanation</u>

the wave equation states that,

V = λf

Where V ⇒ Velocity

λ ⇒ wavelength

f ⇒ Frequency

F = 1/T

Where T ⇒ period

F = 1/0.006

= 166.667

∴ V = 9 × 166.667

= 1,500 m/s
