Sol: When a solid particles settles in water, its downwards settlement is opposed by the drag force
offered by the water. The effective weight of the particle first accelerate in motion then attains
constant velocity which makes drag force is equal to affective weight of particle.

` Oxides of Sulphur: Sulphur dioxide (SO2) is the basic air pollutant amongst all the oxides of
sulphur. SO2 is an irritant gas, and when inhaled, affects our mucous membranes. It increases the
breathing rate and causes oxygen deficits in the body, leading to bronchial-spasms in some of te
affected persons. Patients of asthma are very badly affected by this pollutant.
Carbon Monoxide (CO): Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and toxic gas, produced when
organic materials like natural gas, coal or wood are incompletely burnt. Vehicular exhausts are the
single largest source of carbon monoxide, as the number of vehicles have increase and is increasing
by leaps and bound over the world. Poorly maintained vehicles and those having inefficient engines,
without being fitted with adequate pollution control devices, release greater amounts of carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide possesses about 200 times affinity for blood haemoglobin (H b) than
oxygen, Eventually, when inhaled, CO replaces O 2 from the haemoglobin, and forms what is known
as carboxy-haemoglobin (COHb). This carboxy-haeomoglobin is of no use for respiratory purposes;
and hence, CO inhalation impairs normal oxygen transport carried out by the blood. Low levels of
CO inhalations produce symptoms like headache, dizzincess, reduction in reaction time, etc. Higher
levels of CO inhalations may cause nausea, heart palpitations, difficulty in breathing, etc. In extreme
cases, when about half of the haemoglobin of the blood is used up in forming carboxy hemoglobin,
death becomes a certainly.
Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx): Atmospheric nitrogen may combine with oxygen at high temperatures,
as generated during fuel combustion, to form nitric oxide (NO). The nitric oxide (NO) at low levels
is relatively harmless, but at high concentrations may cause asphyxiation and respiratory discomfort,
because it combines about 3 lakh times faster with hemoglobin than oxygen. Larger concentrations
may cause quick deaths.
Hydrocarbons (HC): Hydrocarbons are the group of compounds consisting of carbon and hydrogen
atoms. They are either evaporated into the atmosphere from the petroleum fuel supplies (such as
petrol, diesel, etc.) or are emitted out in the automobile exhausts as the remnants of petroleum fuel
that did not burn completely. The hydrocarbons may, therefore, also be contained in the smokes of
incinerators using petroleum fuel for burning. They may also be contained in the fumes of oil
refineries.
Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM): The particulate matter in air may occur in air largely in
solid form as particles of dust, smoke, fume, etc; and also in liquid form as mist and fog. The
particles larger then a molecule but small enough to remain suspended in air are called aerosols.

From, water budget equation
∑Inflow – ∑outflow = change in storage
I + Rainfall – (0 + evaporation + seepage loss) = Drop in reservoir level
[20.736 + 0.8 – (31.104 + 0.84 + seepage loss)] × 106 = – 8
Seepage loss = 2.408 × 106 m3 per month

Thus the average seepage discharge is 0.929 m3/sec from the reservoir.

Sol: The following scientifically managed methods can be used for disposal of municipal sold waste
(refuse):
Disposal of MSW (Refuse) by Sanitary Land Filling or Controlled Tipping Method: In this
method of refuse disposal, refuse is carried and dumped into the low lying area (car-marked as the
land fill site) under an engineered operation, de-signed and operated in an environmentally sound
manner, as not to cause any public nuisance or hazards to public health or safety.
Disposal of MSW (refuse) by Shredding and Pulverisation: The size and volume reduction of
municipal solid waste (MSW) is accomplished by the physical processes of shredding and
pulverisation. Shredding refers to the actions of cutting and tearing; whereas, pulverisation refers to
the actions of crushing and grinding. Shredding and pulverising may help in reducing the overall
volume of the original MSW, by as much as 40%. The shredding and pulverising not only helps in
reducing the volume of MSW, but also helps in changing the physical character of the waste, which
becomes practically odourless and unattractive to the insects.

Ans: Noise Pollution:
Definition and introduction:
Sound in the environment is caused by vibrations in the air (or some other medium) that reach human
ears and stimulate a sensation of hearing. When the sound becomes loud, or disagreeable, or unwanted,
it becomes noise.
The effects of Noise:
The various effects of noise can be divided into the following categories:
1. Noise induced annoyance
2. Noise induced diseases
3. Sleeplessness
4. Communication interference
5. Noise induced hearing loss
6. Effect of noise of wild life.
diseases caused may include: anxiety, tenseness, nervousness, headaches, fatigue, nausea, insomnia,
high blood pressure, high pulse rate, greater perspiration, gastric secretions, etc.
3. Sleeplessness:
The nose may induce sleep disturbances including shorter sleep durations, more frequent awakening,
etc. sleep disturbances due to noise may depend upon the characteristics of the noise, such as its
frequency, loudness (intensity), and continuity/intermittency.
4. Communication Interference:
Noise can badly disturb communication when a person is speaking on telephone; or when individuals
are talking face to face. This may require grater speaking effort on the part of the speaker, and much
more attentive care on the part of the listener, than what would have been needed, otherwise.

When D R and R >> H, the noise reduction may also be calculated by the equation:

Noise reduction (dB) = 10 log10

Where H = Height of the barrier wall
= wavelength of sound
Locating the noisy sources on the downwind side of the residences, may be another important
consideration in good town planning, because noise will then travel farther in the downwind
direction away from the residences.
Noise levels in residential buildings can be reduced to some extent by offsetting the building
from the main or street roads by a suitable distance. The farther is this distance, the better will be
the attenuation, because the intensity of noise gets reduced with increase in distance.
