Answer:

<h2>50°</h2>

Explanation:

Angle of rotation of the flat polished surface \theta = 15°

angle of incidence i = 20°

Since the polished surface is turned at an angle of 15°, the angle of reflection

r = 2\theta (Note that the angle of rotation only have effect of the angle of reflection)

r = 2*15 = 30°

The angle between the reflected ray and the incident ray will be equal to the sum of the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection i.e i+r

The angle between the reflected ray and the incident ray = 20°+ 30° = 50°

A homeowner is trying to move a stubborn rock from his yard. By using a a metal rod as a lever arm and a fulcrum (or pivot point
pogonyaev

Answer:

L = 1.545 m

Explanation:

Let the total length of the rod is L

now the torque must applied on the other end of the rod so that it will balance the torque due to weight of rock on other side of fulcrum

so we will have

mg \times d = F(L - d)

so we have

325\times 9.8 \times 0.266 = F(L - 0.266)

F = 663 N

848 = 663(L - 0.266)

L = 1.545 m

Help please! This question is driving me crazy
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

-10.8°, or 10.8° below the +x axis

Explanation:

The x component of the resultant vector is:

x = 3.14 cos(30.0°) + 2.71 cos(-60.0°)

x = 4.07

The y component of the resultant vector is:

y = 3.14 sin(30.0°) + 2.71 sin(-60.0°)

y = -0.777

Therefore, the angle between the resultant vector and the +x axis is:

θ = atan(y / x)

θ = atan(-0.777 / 4.07)

θ = -10.8°

The angle is -10.8°, or 10.8° below the +x axis.

If 180 grams of potassium iodide is dissolved in 100 cm3 of water at 30oC, a(n) _______________ solution is formed. A) saturated
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: D)supersaturated

Explanation: Solubility is defined as the amount of solute in grams which can dissolve in 100 g of the liquid to form a saturated solution at that particular temperature.

At 30^0C , the solubility of KI is 153g/100 ml.

Thus if 180 grams is dissolved, it contains more amount of solute than it can hold at that that temperature, and thus is supersaturated solution.

A saturated solution is a solution containing the maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solvent. ​The additional solute does not dissolve in a saturated solution.

An unsaturated solution is solution in which the solute concentration is lower than its equilibrium solubility.

A supersaturated solution is one that has more solute than it can hold at a certain temperature.

According to the article "Nuclear shapes" by Renee Lucas the nucleus's shape is mainly modified by vibrational and rotational features happening within the cell. According to the article if i read correctly "near closed shells spherical shapes prevail, while between closed shells the large number of valence nucleons in orbit with large particle angular momentum leads to nuclei with large deformations leading them to not only maintain its shape but also alloying it to work.
