In accordance with the International Regulation for the prevention of collisions at sea:

1.- A sailing boat has a passing preference over a motorized boat, except when the motor boat is limited by its draft.

2.- The sailboat must maintain its course and speed.

3.- If it is evident that the PWC does not respond, the sailboat must sound the warning signal, and change its course to starboard.

4.- All actions must be taken as soon as possible.

5.- If a sailboat is using its engine, the situation changes, and in that case, both ships must alter to starboard.

Answer:

The frequency of the sound wave is 800Hz

The speed of sound in a is about 340m/s.

Velocity = frequency x wavelength

making wavelength the subject formula

wavelength = Velocity/frequency.

wavelength = 340/800

wavelength = 0.425m.

Which element does not have the same number of electrons in its outermost shell as the other elements in its group?(1 point)

Setler79 [48]

Helium (He) does not have the same number of valence electrons as other elements in its group.

The periodic table is divided into groups with the last number of the group coinciding with the number of electrons that an element in the group has in its outermost or valence shell.

Helium is in group 18 which means that it should have the same number of valence electrons as :

Neon
Argon
Krypton
Xenon and,
Radon

Yet Helium only has 2 valence electrons. We can therefore conclusively say that Helium does not have the same number of valence electrons as other elements in its group.
