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.

A uniformly charged ring of radius 10.0 cm has a total charge of 50.0 μC Find the electric field on the axis of the ring at 30.0
Grace [21]

Answer: 4.27 *10^6 N/C

Explanation: In order to calculate the electric field along the axis of charged ring we have to use the following expression:

E=k*x/(a^2+x^2)^3/2    where a is the ring radius and x the distance to the point measured from the center of the ring.

Replacing the data we have:

E= (9* 10^9* 0.3* 50 * 10^-6)/(0.1^2+0.3^2)^3/2

then

E=4.27 * 10^6 N/C

An iron railroad rail is 800 ft long when the temperature is 31°C. What is its length (in ft) when the temperature is −17°C?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

799.54 ft

Explanation:

Linear thermal expansion is:

ΔL = α L₀ ΔT

where ΔL is the change in length,

α is the linear thermal expansion coefficient,

L₀ is the original length,

and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Given:

α = 1.2×10⁻⁵ / °C

L₀ = 800 ft

ΔT = -17°C − 31°C = -48°C

Find: ΔL

ΔL = (1.2×10⁻⁵ / °C) (800 ft) (-48°C)

ΔL = -0.4608

Rounded to two significant figures, the change in length is -0.46 ft.

Therefore, the final length is approximately 800 ft − 0.46 ft = 799.54 ft.

Which of the following statements about price elasticity of demand is​ true?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

B. The elastic portion of a​ straight-line, downward-sloping demand curve corresponds to the segment above the midpoint.

Explanation:

Elasticity measures the sensitivity of one variable to another. Specifically it is a figure that indicates the percentage variation that a variable will experience in response to a variation of another one percent.

The elasticity of demand measures the reaction of demand when one of the factors that affects it varies.

<u>Elasticity - Price of demand.</u>

easure the sensitivity of the quantity demanded to price variations. It indicates the percentage variation that the quantity demanded of a good will experience if its price rises by 1 percent.

<u> Elastic Demand </u>

The demand quantity is relatively sensitive to price variations, so the total expenditure on the product decreases when the price rises, the price elasticity takes value greater than -∞ but less than -1
