Answer:

4.57 degree

Explanation:

As the dolphin is under water, so the angle is angle of refraction which is equal to 48.4 degree.

refractive index of water, n = 1.333

Let the angle of incidence which is the angle between the incident ray and the normal is i.

By use of Snell's law

n = \frac{Sin i}{Sin r}

1.333 = \frac{Sin i}{Sin 48.4}

Sin i = 1.333\times Sin 48.4 = 0.9968

i = 85.43 degree

Angle made with the horizon = 90 - 85.43 = 4.57 degree

the solubility product of lead fluoride is 3.6 x 10–8. what is its solubility in 0.10M NaF solution, in grams per liter
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

8.8 × 10⁻³ g/L

Explanation:

NaF is a strong electrolyte that ionizes according to the following reaction.

NaF(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + F⁻(aq)

Then, the concentration of F⁻ will also be 0.10 M.

In order to find the solubility of PbF₂ (S), we will use an ICE Chart.

        PbF₂(s) ⇄ Pb²⁺(aq) + 2 F⁻(aq)

I                           0                0.10

C                         +S               +2S

E                          S              0.10 + 2S

The solubility product (Kps) is:

Kps = 3.6 × 10⁻⁸ = [Pb²⁺].[F⁻]² = S . (0.10 + 2S)²

In the term 0.10 + 2S, 2S is negligible in comparison with 0.10 and we can omit it to simplify calculations.

Kps = 3.6 × 10⁻⁸ = S . (0.10)²

S = 3.6 × 10⁻⁵ M

The molar mass of PbF₂ is 245.20 g/mol. The solubility of PbF₂ in g/L is:

3.6 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L × 245.20 g/mol = 8.8 × 10⁻³ g/L

An object of mass 0.50 kg is transported to the surface of Planet X where the object’s weight is measured to be 20 N. The radius
Olin [163]

Answer:

g'=40\ m.s^{-2}

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of the object, m=0.5\ kg
  • weight of the object on planet x, W=20\ N
  • radius of the planet, R=4\times10^6\ m
  • radial distance between the planet and the object, r=2\times 10^6\ m

<u>Now free fall acceleration on planet X:</u>

W=m.g'

20=0.5\times g'

g'=40\ m.s^{-2} irrespective of the height.
