A girl runs along a circular track of radius 5 m starting from point A. What will be the distance travelled by her and speed if she stops halfway at B in 400 s? |
|
Answer» Solution :If the girl STOPS halfway through, her distance WOULD be half the circumference, which is EQUAL to `(2 XX pi x r)//2 = 3.14 xx 5 = 15.7 m` TIME = 400s `"Speed" = ("Distance travelled")/("Time taken ")=15.7//400= 0.039 m//s` |
|

A wooden block is tied to a metallic rod of mass 100 g and immersed completely inwater. When the displaced water is collected in water. |
|
Answer» Solution :Mass of the metallic rod = 100 g Volume of the metallic rod + volume of WOODEN BLOCK = 400 ml Density of the metallic rod = 5 g `cm^(-3)` Volume of the metallic rod =` massof the metallic rod/density of the rod`=`8/1=n^(3)/1,n^(3)=8, n=2` Volume of wooden the block = `400-20 = 380 cm^(3)` Mass FO the wooden block =`"mass"/"volume"=300/380=0.79" g "cm^(-3)` |

What is a depolarizer and how does it work ? |
| Answer» Solution :When a voltaic cell is made to work for some TIME, a thin layer of hydrogen is formed AROUND the COPPER electrode. This restricts the further flow of charges through the electrolyte. Depolarizer is a substance used to get rid of this problem is in a voltaic cell. Depolaziers work as an OXIDIZING agent and they REACT with hydrogen and change it to water. | |
