Answer:

Argon, neon and xenon are examples of noble gases.

C is correct option.

Explanation:

According to electronic configuration

Argon:

The atomic number of argon is 18.

The electronic configuration of argon

Ar= 2,8,8

$Ar = 1s^2,2s^22p^6,3s^23p^6$

Neon:

The atomic number of argon is 10.

The electronic configuration of argon

Ar= 2,8

$Ne = 1s^2,2s^22p^6$

Xenon:

The atomic number of argon is 54.

The electronic configuration of argon

Ar= 2,8,18,18,8

$Ne = 1s^2,2s^22p^6,3s^23p^6 3d^{10},4s^24p^6 4d^{10},5s^2 5p^6$

Argon, neon and xenon are examples of noble gases because the last shell is completely filled and they does not participate in any reaction so, these atoms are called noble gasses.

Hence, Argon, neon and xenon are examples of noble gases.

Two in-phase loudspeakers that emit sound with the same frequency are placed along a wall and are separated by a distance of 8.0

zloy xaker [14]

Answer: $278\ Hz$

Explanation:

Given

Distance between two speakers is 8 m

Man is standing 12 away from the wall

When the person moves 3 parallel to the wall

the parallel distances from the speaker become 4+3, 4-3

Now, the difference of distances from the speaker is

$\Delta d=\sqrt{12^2+(4+3)^2}-\sqrt{12^2-(4-3)^2}\\\Delta d=1.85\ m$

Condition for destructive interference is

$\Delta d=(2n-1)\dfrac{\lambda }{2}=(2n-1)\dfrac{\nu }{2f}\\\\\Rightarrow f=(2n-1)\dfrac{v}{2\Delta d}$

for second destructive interference; n=2

$\Rightarrow f=(2\times 2-1)\dfrac{343}{2\times 1.85}=278.10\approx 278\ Hz$

Answer: 0.235

Explanation:

Given data.

M1 = 0.91 Kg

M2 = 2kg

L = 0.95m

N = 35rpm

t = 10.44secs

Solution:

• we first solve for the center of gravity

•we calculate our moment of inertia

• we calculate the angular velocity

• we solve for our torque ( t )

A 30-m-long rocket train car is traveling from Los Angeles to New York at 0.5c when a light at the center of the car flashes. Wh

Novosadov [1.4K]

Given that,

Distance =30 m

speed = 0.5c

(A). We need to find the bell and siren simultaneous events for a passenger seated in the car

According to given data

The distance travelled by the light to reach either side of the rocket train car is same.

So, The two events are simultaneous and the bell and siren are the simultaneous events for a passenger seated in the car.

(B). We need to calculate time interval between the events

Using formula of time dilation

$\Delta t=\dfrac{\Delta t'}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}$ .....(I)

Where, $\delta t'$ = proper time

$\delta t$ = time interval between the events

The time interval between the events measured in a reference frame

The proper time in this case is

$\Delta t'=\Delta t_{1}-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}$

For the second interval,

Put the value of $\Delta t'$ in the equation (I)

$\Delta t_{2}=\dfrac{\Delta t_{1}-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}$

Put the value in the equation

$\Delta t_{2} = \dfrac{0-\dfrac{0.5c\times30}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{0.5^2c^2}{c^2}}}$

$\Delta t_{2}=\dfrac{-15}{3\times10^{8}\sqrt{1-0.25}}$

$\Delta t_{2}=-5.77\times10^{8}\ s$

Negative sign shows the siren rings before the bell ring.

Hence, (A). Yes, the bell and siren are simultaneous events.

(B). The siren sounds before the bell rings.
