Answer:

Gravity is one major force that creates tides. In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton explained that ocean tides result from the gravitational attraction of the sun and moon on the oceans of the earth (Sumich, J.L., 1996).

During an investigation a scientist heated 2.76 g of silver carbonate till it decomposed to leave a silver residue. The total ma
Juliette [100K]
The equation that shows the decomposition of silver carbonate is as follows:
2Ag2CO3 > 4Ag + 2CO2 + O2--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------okay, now from the periodic table:mass of silver is 107.8682 gramsmass of carbon is 12 gramsmass of oxygen is 16 gramsmolar mass of Ag2CO3 is 2(107.8682) + 12 + 3(16) = 275.7364 grams------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------From the balanced equation above:2(275.7362) = 551.4728 grams of Ag2CO3 produces 4(107.8682) = 431.4728 grams of Ag------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Therefore, to know the mass of Ag produced from 2.76 grams of Ag2CO3, we will simply use cross multiplication as follows:mass of Ag produced = (2.76*431.4728) / (551.4728) = 2.16 grams==========================================================
Based on the above calculations, the law of conservation of mass is applied.

Marina CMI [18]

The result of changing a physical sound wave into an analogous electrical signal using a transducer (such as a microphone) is called analogue audio. In this system, the rapid electrical level is directly proportional to the rapid air pressure taken by the transducer. The analogue signal is then augmented and can be kept on an analogue medium such as tape or transformed further into a succession of discrete mathematical numbers. The advantages of using this device is that it yields a subtle sound and is pleasing to the ear by pushing the signal level and overdriving it. But the disadvantages are editing it would be tedious and prone to degradation.

A spy satellite uses a telescope with a 1.7-m-diameter mirror. It orbits the earth at a height of 180 km.
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: the minimum spacing that must be there between two objects on the earth's surface if they are to be resolved as distinct objects by this telescope 6.45 cm

Explanation:

Given that;

diameter of the mirror d = 1.7 m

height h = 180 km = 180 × 10³ m

wavelength λ = 500 nm = 5 × 10⁻⁹ m

Now Angular separation from the peak of the central maximum is expressed as;

sin∅= 1.22 λ / d

sin∅ = (1.22 × 5 × 10⁻⁹) / 1.7

 sin∅ = 3.588 × 10⁻⁷

we know that;

 sin∅  = object separation / distance from telescope

object separation =   sin∅ × distance from telescope

object separation = 3.588 × 10⁻⁷  × 180 × 10³

object separation =6.45 × 10⁻² m

then we convert to centimeter

object separation = 6.45 cm

Therefore the minimum spacing that must be there between two objects on the earth's surface if they are to be resolved as distinct objects by this telescope 6.45 cm
