If a wave has a wave height of 5 meters, in what depth of water would it begin to break?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marysya12 [62]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

6.5 meters

Explanation:

Background Knowledge:

The most familiar example of breaking wave is the breaking of water surface waves on a coastline.

Explanation:

The process of Wave breaking in most of the cases occurs when the amplitude reaches the point that the crest of the wave actually overturns

Factors by which waves are produced:

Different type of waves are produced and varied according to different type of factors. These factors are

Wind direction

Type of swell

Sea floor features

Slope of sea bed

Direct answer of the question:

In general rule, Waves start to break on reaching a water depth of 1.3 times the wave height.

In this question wave height is 5 meters so wave breaks on

5 × 1.3 = 6.5 meters

How do valence electrons interact between non polar covalent, polar covalent, and ionic bonds?​

Answer:

In non-polar covalent bonds, the electrons are equally shared between the two atoms. For atoms with differing electronegativity, the bond will be a polar covalent interaction, where the electrons will not be shared equally.

Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction between fe2+(aq) and zn(s) under standard conditions at 25∘c.
Hatshy [7]
Following reaction occurs in the given electrochemical system:
Fe^{2+} + Zn → Fe + Zn^{2+}
Thus, under standard conditions
E(0) = E(0) Fe2+/Fe - E(0) Zn2+/Zn
where, E^{0}Fe2+/Fe = standard reduction potential of Fe2+/Fe = -0.44 v
E^{0}Zn2+/Zn = standard reduction potential of Zn2+/Zn = -0.763 v

E(0) = 0.323 v
now, we know that, ΔG(0) =-nFE(0) ............... (1)
Also, ΔG^{0} = -RTln(K) ............ (2)

On equating and rearranging equation 1 and 2, we get
K = exp( \frac{nFE(0)}{RT} )= exp (\frac{2X96500X0.323}{8.314X298}) = 8.46 x 10^{10}
