a) Define surface tension.(b) State two methods by which the surface tension of a liquid can be reduced.

Explain why sound waves cannot be plane Polarized.

(a) Explain the term electrodes in electric cells.b) An electric current passing through an electrolyte for 2 minutes deposited 200 g of a substance. If the electrochemical equivalent of the substance is 8.33 x 10\(^{-4}\)g C\(^{-1}\), calculate the current passed.

Show that the coefficient Mg of friction between the surfaces in contact is tan \(\theta\).A spiral spring with a metal extends by 10.5 cm in air. When the metal is fully submerged in water, the spring extends by 6.8 cm. Calculate the relative density of the metal. (Assume Hooke's law is obeyed)

A ray of light is incident on an air-glass boundary at an angle \(\theta\). If the angle between the partially reflected ray and the refracted ray is 90°, calculate \(\theta\), given that the refractive index of glass is 1.50.
