Why do noble gases tend to be nonreactive

Physics
1 answer:
attashe74 [19]2 years ago

Noble gases are the least reactive of all elements. That's because they have eight valence electrons, which fill their outer energy level. This is the most stable arrangement of electrons, so noble gases rarely react with other elements and form compounds. PLZ MARK ME BRAINLIEST

A sphere of radius R = 0.295 m and uniform charge density -151 nC/m^3 lies at the center of a spherical, conducting shell of inn
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

a) -1.27*10³ N/C b) 0 c) -0.21*10³ N/C d) 0.1*10³ N/C

Explanation:

a) r = 0.76R

As this distance is inside the sphere, we need to know how much charge is enclosed within this distance for the center, as follows:

Q = ρ*V(r) = ρ*\frac{4}{3} *\pi *r^{3}

where r = 0.760* R = 0.760* 0.295 m = 0.224 m, and ρ = -151 nC/m³

Q = -151e-9 *\frac{4}{3} *\pi *0.224m^{3} = -7.11e-9 C

Applying Gauss' Law to a spherical gaussian surface of r= 0.76R, as the electric field is radial, and directed inward, we can write the following equation:

E*A = Q/ε₀, where Q= -7.11 nC, A= 4*π*(0.76R)² and ε₀ =8.85*10⁻¹² C²/N*m²

We can solve for E, as follows:

E = \frac{1}{4*\pi*8.85e-12C2/N*m2 } *\frac{-7.11e-9C}{(0.76*0.295m)^{2}} =-1.27e3 N/C

⇒ E = -1.27*10³ N/C

b) r= 3.90 R

As this distance falls inside the conducting shell, and no electric field can exist within a conductor in electrostatic condition, E=0

c) r = 2.8 R

As this distance falls between the sphere and the inner radius of the shell, we can calculate the electric field, applying Gauss' law to a gaussian surface of radius equal to r= 2.80 R.

First we need to find the total charge of the sphere, as follows:

Q = ρ*V =

Q = -151e-9 *\frac{4}{3} *\pi *0.295m^{3} = -16.2e-9 C

In the same way that for a) we can write the following expression:

E*A = Q/ε₀, where Q= -16.2 nC, A= 4*π*(2.8R)² and ε₀ =8.85*10⁻¹² C²/N*m²

We can solve for E, as follows:

E = \frac{1}{4*\pi*8.85e-12C2/N*m2 } *\frac{-16.2e-9C}{(2.8*0.295m)^{2}} =-0.21e3 N/C

⇒ E = -0.21*10³ N/C

d) r= 7.30 R

In order to find the electric field at this distance, which falls beyond the outer radius of the shell, we need to find the total charge on the outer surface.

As the sphere has a charge of -16.2 nC, and the total charge of the conducting shell is 66.7nC, in order to make E=0 inside the shell, the total charge enclosed by a gaussian surface with a radius larger than the inner radius of the shell and shorter than the outer one, must be zero, which means that a charge of +16.2 nC must be distributed on the inner surface of the shell.

This leaves an excess charge on the outer surface of the shell as follows:

Qsh = 66.7 nC - 16.2 nC = 50.5 nC

Now, we can repeat the same process than for a) and c) as follows:

E*A = Q/ε₀, where Q= 50.5 nC, A= 4*π*(7.3R)² and ε₀ =8.85*10⁻¹² C²/N*m²

We can solve for E, as follows:

E = \frac{1}{4*\pi*8.85e-12C2/N*m2 } *\frac{50.5e-9C}{(7.3*0.295m)^{2}} =0.1e3 N/C

⇒ E = 0.1*10⁻³ N/C

A(n) 0.47 kg softball is pitched at a speed of 10 m/s. The batter hits it back directly at the pitcher at a speed of 29 m/s. The
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

18.33 Ns

Explanation:

As the pitch back speed has the opposite direction as before, the change in velocity would be

\Delta v = v_2 - v_1 = 29 - (-10) = 39 m/s

So the change in momentum of the ball would be the product of its velocity change and its mass

\Delta p = \Delta v m = 39 * 0.47 = 18.33 kgm/s

This is equals to the impulse acted on the ball by the bat, which is 18.33 Ns

Calculate the sample standard deviation and sample variance for the following frequency distribution of hourly wages for a sampl
ollegr [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) standard deviation = σ = 4.9996

(b) variance = σ² = 24.996

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

<em>Given frequency table (find attached as Table 1);</em>

<u></u>

(a) To find the sample standard deviation and sample variance, follow these steps;

<em>i. Calculate the mid-point c for each group by using the mid-point formula;</em>

c = (lower bound + upper bound) / 2

=> c = (6.51 + 8.50) / 2 = 7.505

=> c = (8.51 + 10.50) / 2 = 9.505

=> c = (10.51 + 12.50) / 2 = 11.505

=> c = (12.51 + 14.50) / 2 = 13.505

=> c = (14.51 + 16.50) / 2 = 15.505

<em>So the new table becomes (find attached as Table 2);</em>

<em>ii. Calculate the total number of samples (n) which is the sum of all the frequencies.</em>

n = 50+18+42+20+46

n = 176

<em>iii. Calculate the mean (M)</em>

This is done by first multiplying the midpoints by the corresponding frequencies and then dividing the result by the total number of samples (n).

M = [(7.505 x 50) + (9.505 x 18) + (11.505 x 42) + (13.505 x 20) + (15.505 x 46)] / 176

M = [375.25 + 171.09 + 483.21 + 270.1 + 713.23] / 176

M = [2012.88] / 176

M = 11.44

<em>iv. Find the variance (σ²);</em>

The variance is calculated using the following formula

σ² = [Σ(f x c²) - (n x M²)] / (n - 1)                ------------(i)

Where;

f = frequency of each boundary data point

<em>=>  Let's first calculate </em>Σ(f x c²).

This is done by finding the sum of the product of the frequency (f) of each boundary point and the square of their corresponding mid-points(c)

Σ(f x c²) = [(50 x 7.505²) + (18 x 9.505²) + (42 x 11.505²) + (20 x 13.505²) + (46 x 15.505²)]

Σ(f x c²) = [(2816.25125) + (1626.21045) + (5559.33105) + (3647.7005) + (11058.63115)]

Σ(f x c²) = 24708.1244

<em>=> Now calculate (n x M²)</em>

n x M² = 176 x 11.44²

n x M² = 23033.7536

<em>=> Now substitute these values into equation (i) to calculate the variance</em>

σ² = [Σ(f x c²) - (n x M²)] / (n - 1)

σ² = [24708.1244 - 23033.7536] / (176 - 1)

σ² = [4374.3708] / (175)

σ² = 24.996

Therefore, the variance is 24.996

<em>v. Find the standard deviation (σ)</em>

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance. i.e

σ = √σ²

σ = √24.996

σ = 4.9996

Therefore, the standard deviation is 4.9996
