Well i really need to see the choices but i think you mean neon

Neon is by far the most common gas used ... the reason why these displays are called "neon signs". Argon is also often used as the main component. Xenon, Krypton, and Helium are often added for special color effects, but are never used alone without neon or argon.

What is the acceptable level for chlorine

Katena32 [7]

The EPA requires treated tap water to have a detectable level of chlorine to help prevent contamination. The allowable chlorine in drinking water (up to 4 parts per million) pose “no known or expected health risk [including] an adequate margin of safety.”

Which has the most momentum?

boyakko [2]

Answer:

Both objects have the same magnitude of momentum.

Explanation:

If an object of mass $m$ is moving at a velocity of $v$ , the momentum of that object would be $m\, v$ .

The $100\; {\rm g}$ ( $0.1\; {\rm kg}$ ) object is moving at a speed of $1\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ . The magnitude of the momentum of this object would be $0.1\; {\rm kg} \times 1\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} = 0.1\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .

Similarly, the momentum of the $1\; {\rm g}$ ( $10^{-3}\; {\rm kg}$ ) object moving at a speed of $100\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ would be $10^{-3}\; {\rm kg} \times 100\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} = 0.1\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .

Hence, the magnitude of momentum is the same for the two objects.

If a microwave oven produces electromagnetic waves with a frequency of 2.30 ghz, what is their wavelength?

vovikov84 [41]

Answer: wavelength is $1.30 \times 10^8 nm.$

The frequency of the microwave is, f = 2.30 GHz.

To Find frequency use the formula:

$c=f$ λ

Where, c is the speed of electromagnetic wave or light. f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength of light.

Rearranging, $\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$

Plug in the values,

$\lambdam = \frac{3 \times 10^8 m/s}{2.30 GHz\frac{10^9 Hz}{1 GHz}}=0.130 m\frac{10^9 nm}{1 m} = 1.30 \times 10^8 nm.$

What is the difference between radial acceleration and tangential acceleration and how do you calculate both of these accelerati

sergey [27]

Answer:

Tangential acceleration is in the direction of velocity - along the circumference of a circle if the object is undergoing circular motion

a = (V2 - V1) / T

Radial acceleration is perpendicular to the direction of motion if the object is not moving in a straight line (perhaps along the circumference of a circle)

a = m V^2 / R = m ω^2 R where R is the radius vector of the velocity - note that the Radius vector is directed from the center of motion to the object and for circular motion would be constant in magnitude but not in direction
