X-rays from a copper x-ray tube, at l = 1.54062 å, are diffracted at an angle of 11.30o from a sample of metallic platinum. assuming that n = 1, what is the distance between the planes that gives rise to this reflection?

Determine the expected diffraction angle for the first-order reflection from the (310) set of planes for bcc chromium when monochromatic radiation of wavelength 0.0735 nm is used. the atomic radius for cr is 0.1249 nm.

Scout feels ill one day before school. her mother puts a thermometer in her mouth and the temperature begins to climb to 100°f. what is happening between the cooler thermometer and scout's body? a) scout's body is applying a force to the particles in the thermometer. b) kinetic energy is being transferred from her mouth to the thermometer. c) potential energy is being lost by the thermometer and gained by scout's body. d) the potential energy stored in foods is converted to mechanical energy to raise the mercury in the thermometer.

Which statements describe the movement of ocean currents around the globe? check all that apply. strong winds force warm water to sink to the ocean floor. the coriolis effect causes warm and cold water to mix. cool dense water sinks to the ocean floor. warm water replaces cool surface water. wind blowing parallel to the shore causes upwelling of cool water.
