The equation below is for potassium oxide.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: The ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, and remains conserved. The mass of products must be same as that of the reactants.

Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the equation so as to keep the mass same and thus balanced chemical equations are written.

K exists as atoms and oxygen exist as molecule which consists of 2 atoms. The ratio of number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same and thus the ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

$175

Explanation:

Insurance premium is expressed as a rate $1000

($3.50 per $1000)

Therefore;

Annual premium= $50000x$3.50/$1000

= $175

Assume the Earth is a ball of perimeter 40, 000 kilometers. There is a building 20 meters tall at point a. A robot with a camera

torisob [31]

Answer:

Approximately 21 km.

Explanation:

Refer to the not-to-scale diagram attached. The circle is the cross-section of the sphere that goes through the center C. Draw a line that connects the top of the building (point B) and the camera on the robot (point D.) Consider: at how many points might the line intersects the outer rim of this circle? There are three possible cases:

No intersection: There's nothing that blocks the camera's view of the top of the building.
Two intersections: The planet blocks the camera's view of the top of the building.
One intersection: The point at which the top of the building appears or disappears.

There's only one such line that goes through the top of the building and intersects the outer rim of the circle only once. That line is a tangent to this circle. In other words, it is perpendicular to the radius of the circle at the point A where it touches the circle.

The camera needs to be on this tangent line when the building starts to disappear. To find the length of the arc that the robot has travelled, start by finding the angle $\angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}D}$ which corresponds to this minor arc.

This angle comes can be split into two parts:

$\angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}D} = \angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}A} + \angle \mathrm{A\hat{C}D}$ .

Also,

$\angle \mathrm{B\hat{A}C} = \angle \mathrm{D\hat{A}C} = 90^{\circ}$ .

The radius of this circle is:

$\displaystyle r = \frac{c}{2\pi} = \rm \frac{4\times 10^{7}\; m}{2\pi}$ .

The lengths of segment DC, AC, BC can all be found:

$\rm DC = \rm \left(1.75 \displaystyle + \frac{4\times 10^{7}\; m}{2\pi}\right)\; m$ ;
$\rm AC = \rm \displaystyle \frac{4\times 10^{7}}{2\pi}\; m$ ;
$\rm BC = \rm \left(20\; m\displaystyle +\frac{4\times 10^{7}}{2\pi} \right)\; m$ .

In the two right triangles $\triangle\mathrm{DAC}$ and $\triangle \rm BAC$ , the value of $\angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}A}$ and $\angle \mathrm{A\hat{C}D}$ can be found using the inverse cosine function:

$\displaystyle \angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}A} = \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{BC}}$

$\displaystyle \angle \mathrm{D\hat{C}A} = \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{DC}}$

$\displaystyle \angle \mathrm{B\hat{C}D} = \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{BC}} + \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{DC}}$ .

The length of the minor arc will be:

$\displaystyle r \theta = \frac{4\times 10^{7}\; \rm m}{2\pi} \cdot (\cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{BC}} + \cos^{-1}{\rm \frac{AC}{DC}}) \approx 20667 \; m \approx 21 \; km$ .
