Mixture Problem A jeweler has five rings, each weigh- ing 18 g, made of an alloy of 10% silver and 90% gold. She decides to melt

down the rings and add enough silver to reduce the gold content to 75%. How much silver should she add?

Tpy6a [65]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Total weight of 5 rings

= 18 x 5

= 90 g

silver = 10% of 90 g

= 9 g

gold = 81 g

Let silver added = x gm

Total weight = 90 +x

75% of (90+x) is gold

= 3/4 x  (90+x)g is  gold

So  3/4 x  (90+x)  = 81

(90+x)  = 81 x 4 / 3

= 108

x = 18 g

silver to be added = 18g .

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

           A planet's <u>hydrosphere</u> can be<u> liquid</u>, <u>vapor</u>, or <u>ice</u>. On Earth, in the places at the <u>north and south pole</u>, water exists in ice or glacier form, in the <u>atmosphere</u> it exists in vapor form and liquid water exists on the <u>surface</u> in the form of oceans, lakes and rivers. It also exists below ground as <u>groundwater</u>, in wells and aquifers. Water collects in clouds, then falls to Earth in the form of <u>rain or snow</u>,

Different isotopes of the same element emit light at slightly different wavelengths. A wavelength in the emission spectrum of a
Inessa [10]

Different isotopes of the same element emit light at slightly different wavelengths, the minimum number of slits  is mathematically given as

N=1820slits

<h3>What minimum number of slits is required to resolve these two wavelengths in second-order?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the wave is mathematically given as

d\ sin\ (\theta\ m) \ = \ m\  \lambda

Where the chromatic resolving power (R) is defined by

R\  =\ \lambda\ / \ d \  \lambda

R = nN,

Therefore

\lambda_1 \ = \  (656.45)(1 \ * \ 10^{-9})/1mm

\lambda_1= 656.45*10^{-9}

and

\lambda_2= (656.27)(1*10^{-9})/1mm

\\\\\lambda_2= 656.27*10^{-9}m

In conclusion, the minimum number of slits is required to resolve these two wavelengths in second-order

N\ =\ \dfrac{\lambda}{m\ d\ T\ }\\\\

Therefore

N\ =\ \dfrac{656.45 \ * \ 10^{-9}}{2\ * \ (0.18*10^{-9})}

N=1820slits
