Answer:

Voltage is known as potential or in simpler terms “how fast the electrons flow”. Power is a function of voltage times the volume of electrons (current). Power is the ability to do work and is measured in Watts. The higher the voltage the more power you have with the same current (Watts (power) = Volts x Amps.

If this decay has a half-life of 10.2 years, what mass of 60.8g carbon-14 will remain after 20.4 years

OLEGan [10]

20.4 years is 20.4/10.2 = 2 half-life cycles, which means a quarter of the starting mass or 15.2 g will remain after this time.

Explain why the model of this chemical reaction obeys the Law of Conservation of Matter. A) because there are the same number of

Sav [38]

Answer:

(A) because there are the same number of atoms of each element shown on both sides

Explanation:

The Law of conservation of mass says that in a reaction the matter of the products should be equivalent to the matter of the reactants and the mass of the system should remain constant over time.

In a chemical reaction, while atoms bond is breaking of 1 substance than new bonds are formed in another substance and new substances are formed. However, in the overall reaction, they keep the same elements, no new elements can go and come from the outside. For example:

HCl + NaOH -----> NaCl + H2O

In this reaction, on both sides the same number of atoms of each element are present.

A thin glass rod is submerged in oil. What is the critical angle for light traveling inside the rod? The index of refraction for

Alekssandra [29.7K]

When light travels from a medium with higher refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, the critical angle is the angle of incidence above which light is reflected only (no refraction occurs), and the value of this critical angle is given by
$\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} )$
where n2 is the refractive index of the second medium and n1 is the refractive index of the first medium.

In this problem, the first medium is the glass ( $n_1 = 1.50$ ), while the second medium is oil ( $n_2 =1.46$ ), therefore the critical angle is given by
$\theta_c = \arcsin( \frac{1.46}{1.50} )=\arcsin(0.973)=76.7^{\circ}$
