According to periodic trends in the periodic table, the atomic radius decreases from left to right.
In period three, the element with the smallest atomic radius would be the element in the rightmost area. Protons increase as it goes to the right, which would mean they pull in electrons closer which decreases the size.
So in period 3, the element with the smallest atomic radius is Argon (Ar).
Because the four outer planets are comprised of mostly gases give me a thanks or brainiest answer if this helps!
When an object in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, its <u>acceleration</u> is also at a maximum.
<u><em>Reason</em></u><em>: The speed is zero when the simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, however, the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. The velocity reverses the direction at that point therefore its rate of change is maximum at that moment. thus the acceleration is at its maximum at this point</em>

Hope that helps!
It made the development of cars, trucks, and airplanes possible.
