Which of the following describes a condition in which an individual would not hear an echo?

egoroff_w [7]

The correct answer is D.

Echo refers to the sound that is heard when a sound wave is reflected back from a surface. An echo sound is made when a sound wave traveled through the air, hit a hard surface and get reflected back. Generally, hard surfaces reflect sound wave while soft surfaces absorb sound waves. Reflected sound waves are used in application of some devices that are used in range and direction finding.

If the following elements were to combine with each other, choose which demonstrate the Law of Multiple Proportion. Select all t

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Missing question: Z:X = 7:1 A:Z = 2.5:1 A:Z = 2.2:1 Y:X = 11:1.

Answer is: Z:X = 7:1 and Y:X = 11:1.
Law of multiple proportions or Dalton's Law said that the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will be ratios of small whole numbers.
In this example ratios are whole numbers, A:Z = 2.5 : 1 and A:Z = 2.2 : 1 are not whole number ratios.

Describe what happens as ice changes to water.

morpeh [17]

Answer:

The energy of the particles increase and the molecules move more quickly.

Explanation:

The molecules are moving from a solid (barely moves, molecules close together) to a liquid (molecules slide past each other and take any shape), so molecules are moving more and have more energy

A breeder nuclear reactor is a reactor in which nonfissile U-238 is converted into fissile Pu-239. The process involves bombardm

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer: The nuclear equations for the given process is written below.

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the bombardment of neutron to U-238 isotope follows:

$_{92}^{238}\textrm{U}+n\rightarrow _{92}^{239}\textrm{U}$

Beta decay is defined as the process in which neutrons get converted into an electron and a proton. The released electron is known as the beta particle.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta$

The chemical equation for the first beta decay process of $_{92}^{239}\textrm{U}$ follows:

$_{92}^{239}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{93}^{239}\textrm{Np}+_{-1}^0\beta$

The chemical equation for the second beta decay process of $_{93}^{239}\textrm{Np}$ follows:

$_{93}^{239}\textrm{Np}\rightarrow _{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}+_{-1}^0\beta$

Hence, the nuclear equations for the given process is written above.
