Question 1

What does the steady-state assumption imply?

  • Concentration changes over time
  • Concentration remains constant over time
  • Concentration is irrelevant

💡 Hint: Think about concentration stability over time at fixed points.

Question 2

True or False: The Gaussian dispersion model assumes pollutants spread symmetrically in all directions.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Visualize the shape of the dispersion model.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A factory emits pollutants at a rate of 100 grams per second. Assuming a constant wind speed of 3 meters per second and applying the Gaussian dispersion model, calculate the expected concentration at a distance of 100 meters.

💡 Hint: Don't forget to incorporate the plume parameters in your calculations!

Question 2

Considering an area where wind direction changes frequently, how should environmental models adapt when using the Gaussian dispersion model?

💡 Hint: Think about how changes in wind direction could affect dispersion patterns.
