Answer:

Noble gases. (Argon)

Explanation:

Noble gases are found in the group eight element on the periodic table and are known for their inert nature.

Meaning that they don't react easily with other elements.

Phosphorus is a reactive element that when exposed to air (oxygen) catches fire.

If phosphorus is stored under Noble gases escpecially Argon it won't react with the surrounding air in the laboratory.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Argon

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Phosphorus is an element found in group 15 of the periodic table, it is one of the element that belongs to nitrogen family.
  • The element phosphorus exhibits allotrophy, namely; white phosphorus, red phosphorus and black phosphorus.
  • <u>Phosphorus, particularly the white phosphorus combines with oxygen so easily that it catches fire automatically. Thus, as a safety precaution, white phosphorus is stored under water in laboratories. </u>
  • <u>It may be also stored in argon, since argon is an inert element which belongs to the noble gases group.</u>

Answer:Habituation is a simple learned behavior in which an animal gradually stops responding to a repeated stimulus.

Imprinting is a specialized form of learning that occurs during a brief period in young animals—e.g., ducks imprinting on their mother.

In classical conditioning, a new stimulus is associated with a pre-existing response through repeated pairing of new and previously known stimuli.

In operant conditioning, an animal learns to perform a behavior more or less frequently through a reward or punishment that follows the behavior.

Some animals, especially primates, are capable of more complex forms of learning, such as problem-solving and the construction of mental maps.

Introduction

If you own a dog—or have a friend who owns a dog—you probably know that dogs can be trained to do things like sit, beg, roll over, and play dead. These are examples of learned behaviors, and dogs can be capable of significant learning. By some estimates, a very clever dog has cognitive abilities on par with a two-and-a-half-year-old human!

A linear network has a current input 7.5 cos(10t + 30°) A and a voltage output 120 cos(10t + 75°) V. Determine the associated im
Leona [35]

Answer:

16∠45° Ω

Explanation:

Applying,

Z = V/I................... Equation 1

Where Z = Impedance, V = Voltage output, I = current input.

Given: V = 120cos(10t+75°), = 120∠75°,  I = 7.5cos(10t+30) = 7.5∠30°

Substitute these values into equation 1

Z = 120cos(10t+75°)/7.5cos(10t+30)

Z = 120∠75°/ 7.5∠30°

Z = 16∠(75°-30)

Z = 16∠45° Ω

Hence the impedance of the linear network is 16∠45° Ω
