Explanation:

Similar triangles:

1.5 m / 1 m = x / 8.5 m

x = 12.75 m

Round as needed.

1. What is the bond angle between the hydrogen atoms in an ammonia (NH3) molecule? 2. What is the bond angle between the oxygen
Klio2033 [76]

The answer is 107 degrees. The geometric shape for ammonia is Trigonal Pyramidal, even though its electron geometry is “Tetrahedral”. This is because ammonia has a lone pair of electrons that occupy its space like the other 3 hydrogens in the geometric structure.

The answer 180 degrees. This is because of the linear geometric structure of carbon dioxide. The oxygen atom is on either side of the carbon atom, each is bound by a double covalent bond. All the atoms are involved in the bond and there are no one pair electrons.

The answer is tetrahedral geometry. This is because all the 4 valence electrons of the carbon are involved in a bond with a hydrogen atom. The angles in a tetrahedral geometric arrangement, such as in methane, is 109.5 degrees, where the hydrogen atoms are as far apart, from each other, as possible .

A light spring of constant 176 N/m rests vertically on the bottom of a large beaker of water.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

14.0 cm

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the block.  There are three forces: weight force mg pulling down, elastic force k∆L pulling down, and buoyancy ρVg pushing up.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

ρVg − mg − k∆L = 0

(1000 kg/m³) (4.63 kg / 648 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²) − (4.63 kg) (9.8 m/s²) − (176 N/m) ∆L = 0

∆L = 0.140 m

∆L = 14.0 cm
