Argon-40 because it is the isotope with the closest mass to the atomic mass of the element. Making it more stable than the others allowing it to be the most abundant in nature.

Answer:

argon-40

Explanation:

The relative atomic mass of Argon is 39.948. This is very close to the mass of argon-40. Usually, the relative atomic mass of an element is the sum of the percentage abundance of each isotope in nature multiplied by its mass. The result of this sum is normally biased towards the isotope with the highest abundance. In the case of argon, argon-40 must have the highest abundance, hence the value of the relative atomic mass.

How does a wave get taller as
Anarel [89]

The reason why a wave get taller as it gets closer to shore is that the shallow water at the bottom of the wave makes the wave length smaller. Option B

<h3>What is a wave?</h3>

A wave is a disturbance that occurs along a medium which transmits energy. Now we now that waves travel from place to place. The horizontal distance that is travelled by a wave is what we call the wavelength of the wave.

As the wave approaches the shore, the wave tends to slow down because it is dragged from beneath. In the process, the wave grows taller. Thus, the reason why a wave get taller as it gets closer to shore is that the shallow water at the bottom of the wave makes the wave length smaller. Option B

If the acceleration is 600 m/s/s and the mass is 300 kg, what force is acting on the object?
vampirchik [111]

Explanation:

Acceleration (a) = 600 m/s²

Mass (m) = 300 kg

Force (F) = ?

We know

F = m * a

= 300 * 600

=180000 Newton

The force acting on the object is 18000 Newton.
