Answer:

<h2>35</h2>

Explanation:

According to snell's law which states that the ratio of the sin of incidence (i) to the angle of refraction(n) is a constant for a given pair of media.

sini/sinr = n

n is the constant = refractive index

Since the diver shines light up to the surface of a flat glass-bottomed boat, the refractive index n = nw/ng

nw is the refractive index of water and ng is that of glass

sini/sinr = nw/ng

given i = 30°, nw = 1.33, ng = 1.5, r = angle the light leave the glass

On substitution;

sin 30/sinr = 1.33/1.5

1.5sin30 = 1.33sinr

sinr = 1.5sin30/1.33

sinr = 0.75/1.33

sinr = 0.5639

r = arcsin0.5639

r ≈35°

angle the light leave the glass is 35°

What force must be applied to the end of a rod along the x-axis of length 2.25 m in order to produce a torque on the rod about t
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

<h2>4.9N approx.</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

length of rod r= 2.25m

Required torque = 11 Nm

Required

The force needed to produce a torque of 11Nm

Step two:

<em>"By definition, Torque is the twisting force that tends to cause rotation. </em>

<em>The point where the object rotates is known as the axis of rotation."</em>

Mathematically,

\tau = rF\sin\theta

\tau = torque

r = radius

F = force

\theta = angle between F and the lever arm

in this case is zero

\tau = rF\\\\F=\tau/r

substituting we have

F=11/2.25

F=4.88N

F=4.9N approx.

How does the end point differ from the equivalence <br>point of a titration?​
Gwar [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Equivalence point and end point are terminologies in pH titrations and they are not the same. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In a <em>titration the substance</em> added slowly to a solution usually through a pippette is called titrante and the solution to which it is added is called titrand. In acid-base titrations acid is added to base or base is added to acid.the strengths of the <em>acid and base titrated</em> determines the nature of the final solution.

At equivalence point the <em>number of moles of the acid</em> will be equal to the number of moles of the base as given in the equation.  The nature of the final solution determines the <em>pH at equivalence point. </em>

<em>A pH less than 7 will be the result if the resultant is acidic and if it is basic the pH will be greater than 7. </em>In a strong base-strong acid and weak base-weak acid titration the pH at the equivalence point will be 7 indicating <em>neutral nature of the solution. </em>
