To solve this problem, let us recall that the formula for gases assuming ideal behaviour is given as:

rms = sqrt (3 R T / M)

where

R = gas constant = 8.314 Pa m^3 / mol K

T = temperature

M = molar mass

Now we get the ratios of rms of Argon (1) to hydrogen (2):

rms1 / rms2 = sqrt (3 R T1 / M1) / sqrt (3 R T2 / M2)

or

rms1 / rms2 = sqrt ((T1 / M1) / (T2 / M2))

rms1 / rms2 = sqrt (T1 M2 / T2 M1)

Since T1 = 4 T2

rms1 / rms2 = sqrt (4 T2 M2 / T2 M1)

rms1 / rms2 = sqrt (4 M2 / M1)

and M2 = 2 while M1 = 40

rms1 / rms2 = sqrt (4 * 2 / 40)

rms1 / rms2 = 0.447

 

Therefore the ratio of rms is:

<span>rms_Argon / rms_Hydrogen = 0.45</span>

The wrong statement is that sound waves created vibration Option A.

<h3>What are sound waves?</h3>

Sound is a type of waves that moves in compressions and rare factions. This implies that sound is a mechanical wave. Recall that a mechanical wave is one that requires a material medium for propagation. Now we know that if we set the medium into vibration, that is when the sound waves begins to vibrate. That brings us to the idea that it is the vibration that causes the sound waves and not the sound waves that creates the vibration.

Thus, knowing that sound is a mechanical wave which moves through solids liquids and gas and that the vibration of the source of sound is what causes the air to vibrate, we conclude that the wrong statement is that sound waves created vibration Option A.

Which instrument is used to measure depth of ocean ?
skelet666 [1.2K]
Echo sounding is a type of SONAR used to determine the depth of water by transmitting sound pulses into water. The time interval between emission and return of a pulse is recorded, which is used to determine the depth of water along with the speed of sound in water at the time.
