Sulfur dioxide is being emitted in a rural area at a rate of 0.90 kg/s from a stack with an effective height of 220 m. The average wind speed at a stack height is 4.8 m/s and the stability category is B. Determine the short time period, downwind, centerline concetrration in micrograms per cubic meter at ground level distances from the stack of (a) 0.6 and (b) 0.8 km.
