The electrochemical equivalent of silver is 0.0012g/C. If 36.0g of silver is to be deposited by electrolysis on a surface by passing a steady current for 5mins, the current must be?
Antwoorddetails
The electrochemical equivalent of silver is a measure of the amount of silver that is deposited on a surface per unit of charge. In this case, the electrochemical equivalent of silver is 0.0012 grams per Coulomb of charge. To deposit 36.0 grams of silver by electrolysis, we need to know the amount of charge that must be passed through the solution. The amount of charge is given by: Q = m/z where m is the mass of silver to be deposited, 0.0012 is the electrochemical equivalent of silver, and z is the charge on one mole of electrons (z = 1 for a single electron). So, the amount of charge required is: Q = 36.0 g / 0.0012 g/C = 30000 C The current, I, is given by: I = Q / t where t is the time for which the current is flowing. In this case, t = 5 minutes. So, the current required is: I = 30000 C / (5 x 60 s) = 100 A Therefore, the current must be 100 Amperes.

Temperature is the property of a body which is proportional to the ____.
Antwoorddetails
Temperature is proportional to the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a body. This means that as the average kinetic energy of the molecules increases, so does the temperature. Think about it like this: the hotter an object, the more energy its molecules have. This energy is what makes the molecules move faster, and therefore, the temperature of the object increases. The average kinetic energy of the molecules is a better measure of temperature than the maximum speed of the molecules because temperature is a measure of the overall energy distribution, not just the energy of a single molecule.

A room is heated by means of a charcoal fire, an occupants of the room standing away from the fire is warmed mainly by
Antwoorddetails
The main way that the occupants of a room standing away from a charcoal fire are warmed is by radiation. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through electromagnetic waves, and it can travel through empty space. In this scenario, the charcoal fire emits radiation in the form of infrared waves, which travel through the air and warm up the objects (including the occupants) in the room. Convection, on the other hand, is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (such as air), but in this case, the air in the room is not being actively circulated by a fan or other mechanism. Conduction involves the transfer of heat through direct contact between two objects, but the occupants are not in direct contact with the fire. Reflection refers to the bouncing of radiation off a surface, but it is not a significant factor in this scenario as most of the radiation is absorbed by the objects in the room.

A particle of mass M initially at rest splits into two. If one of the particles of mass M1 moves with velocity V1 , the second particle moves with velocity
Antwoorddetails
When a particle of mass M splits into two, the total mass is conserved, and so the sum of the masses of the two resulting particles must be equal to M. If one of the particles of mass M1 moves with velocity V1, we can use the law of conservation of momentum to determine the velocity of the second particle. The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of a system of particles remains constant if no external forces act on the system. In this case, the initial momentum of the system is zero, since the particle was initially at rest. After the particle splits, the momentum of the system is the sum of the momenta of the two resulting particles. Let's use the subscript 1 to represent the first particle of mass M1 and the subscript 2 to represent the second particle of mass M-M1. By conservation of momentum, we have: 0 = M1*V1 + (M - M1)*V2 Solving for V2, we get: V2 = -M1/M*(V1) Therefore, the second particle moves in the opposite direction with velocity -M1/M*(V1). This means that the two particles move in opposite directions, with the ratio of their velocities determined by the ratio of their masses. Option (D) in the table shows the correct answer, which is -M1/M*(V1).

Mercury which is spilled onto a glass surface forms ball-like shapes because____.
Antwoorddetails
In case of small drops of mercury, the gravitational potential energy is negligible in comparison to the potential energy due to surface tension.Consequently, to keep the drop in equilibrium, the mercury drop’s surface tends to contract so that its surface area will be the least for a sphere and the drops will be spherical.
But in the case of bigger drops of mercury, the potential energy due to gravity is predominant over the potential energy due to surface tension.Consequently, to keep equilibrium , the mercury drop tends to assume minimum potential energy as possible, the drop becomes oval in shape and lower center of gravity.

The product of force and time is?
Antwoorddetails
The product of force and time is known as impulse. Impulse can be defined as the change in momentum that an object experiences as a result of a force being applied to it over a period of time. In simpler terms, impulse is the "push" that an object receives from a force acting on it for a certain amount of time. The more force applied, or the longer the time the force is applied, the greater the impulse and the greater the change in momentum of the object. It's important to note that impulse is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction. Impulse is a measure of the ability of a force to cause an object to change its velocity, and can be used to explain many phenomena in physics, such as why a heavy object is harder to stop than a lighter one, or why a soccer ball changes direction when it is kicked.

The process whereby a liquid turns spontaneously into vapour is called
Antwoorddetails
The process whereby a liquid turns spontaneously into vapor is called evaporation. Evaporation is the process by which a liquid changes into a gas at a temperature below its boiling point. This happens when the molecules of the liquid gain enough energy to escape from the surface of the liquid into the air as a gas. The rate of evaporation depends on factors such as the temperature, the humidity of the air, and the surface area of the liquid. For example, a shallow pool of water will evaporate faster than a deep one because it has a larger surface area. Boiling, on the other hand, is the process by which a liquid changes into a gas at its boiling point. This happens when the pressure of the gas generated by the boiling liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure. The temperature remains constant during boiling. Regelation and sublimation are different processes altogether. Regelation is the process by which a solid changes into a liquid when it is subjected to pressure. Sublimation is the process by which a solid changes directly into a gas, bypassing the liquid state.

A solid weighs 45N and 15N respectively in air and water. Determine the relative density of the solid
Antwoorddetails
The relative density of a substance is defined as the ratio of its density to the density of a reference substance, usually water at 4 degrees Celsius. In this problem, we can use the principle of buoyancy to determine the density of the solid. When an object is submerged in a fluid, it experiences an upward force called the buoyant force, which is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float, and if it is more dense, it will sink. We are given that the solid weighs 15 N in water, which means it displaces 15 N of water. The weight of the water displaced is equal to the buoyant force on the solid, which is equal to the weight of the solid when it is completely submerged in water. Therefore, the weight of the solid when it is completely submerged in water is 15 N. We are also given that the weight of the solid in air is 45 N. The difference between the weight of the solid in air and water is equal to the weight of the water displaced, which is 30 N. This means that the volume of water displaced by the solid is 30/9.8 = 3.06 L (since the density of water is 1000 kg/m^3 or 9.8 N/L). The relative density of the solid is equal to its density divided by the density of water. We can find the density of the solid by dividing its weight in air by its volume: Density of solid = Weight of solid in air / Volume of solid Density of solid = 45 N / (45 N - 15 N) [since weight of displaced water is 15N] Density of solid = 45 N / 30 N Density of solid = 1.5 N/L Therefore, the relative density of the solid is: Relative density = Density of solid / Density of water Relative density = 1.5 N/L / 1000 N/L Relative density = 0.0015 So the answer is 0.33 (rounded to two decimal places).

A resistor connected to a 12V battery draws a current of 2A. The energy dispatched in the resistor in 5 minutes is ___.
Antwoorddetails
To calculate the energy dispatched in the resistor, we need to use the formula: Energy = Power x Time Where Power is the amount of electrical power consumed by the resistor, and is equal to the product of the voltage across the resistor and the current flowing through it: Power = Voltage x Current In this case, the voltage across the resistor is 12V, and the current flowing through it is 2A. Therefore, the power consumed by the resistor is: Power = 12V x 2A = 24W Now, we can substitute this value of power along with the given time of 5 minutes into the formula for energy: Energy = 24W x 5min x 60s/min = 7,200J Therefore, the energy dispatched in the resistor in 5 minutes is 7,200J. is the correct answer.
Vraag 14 Verslag
The friction which exist between two layers of liquid in relative motion is called
Antwoorddetails
The correct answer is "Viscosity". Viscosity is the property of a fluid that describes its resistance to flow. When two layers of liquid are in relative motion, the viscosity of the liquid causes friction between the layers. This friction creates a resistance to the movement of one layer past the other. The greater the viscosity of the liquid, the greater the friction and the more difficult it is for the layers to move past each other. This property is important in many industrial and natural processes, such as the flow of oil in pipelines or the movement of blood through the human body.

One of the features of the fission process is that
Antwoorddetails
The fission process refers to the splitting of an atomic nucleus into two or more smaller nuclei. One of the key features of the fission process is that it can lead to a chain reaction, where the neutrons released during fission can go on to trigger additional fission reactions. This chain reaction can produce a large amount of energy, as is the case in nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons. Another feature of the fission process is that it typically produces radioactive products. These products can remain radioactive for a long time, which is why there are concerns about the safe disposal of nuclear waste. Additionally, the fission process typically releases neutrons, which can go on to cause further fission reactions. This neutron release is an important aspect of the chain reaction mentioned earlier. Finally, the fission process is accompanied by a small loss of mass, which is converted into energy according to Einstein's famous equation E=mc². This loss of mass is what allows the large amount of energy to be released during a fission reaction.

Which of the following instruments is most suitable for measuring the outside diameter of a narrow pipe in a few millimeters in diameter?
Antwoorddetails
The most suitable instrument for measuring the outside diameter of a narrow pipe in a few millimeters in diameter is a micrometer screw gauge. A micrometer screw gauge is a precision measuring instrument that can accurately measure small dimensions with high accuracy. It has a spindle that moves towards an anvil and a scale that indicates the measurement. The spindle moves in response to a small rotation of the thimble, allowing for precise and sensitive measurements. In contrast, a pair of calipers or a meter rule may not be accurate enough for measuring such small dimensions, and a tape rule may not be able to fit inside the narrow pipe. Therefore, a micrometer screw gauge is the most suitable option for measuring the outside diameter of a narrow pipe in a few millimeters in diameter.

The differences observed in solids, liquids and gases may be accounted for by
Antwoorddetails
The differences observed in solids, liquids, and gases can be accounted for by the spacing and forces acting between the molecules. In a solid, the molecules are packed closely together, so they have a fixed shape and volume. The intermolecular forces are strong enough to keep the molecules in a fixed position relative to one another. In a liquid, the molecules are still close together, but they are free to move around each other. The intermolecular forces are weaker than in a solid, so the molecules can slide past one another, giving the liquid its ability to flow and take the shape of its container. In a gas, the molecules are widely spaced and are in constant motion. The intermolecular forces are very weak, so the molecules are free to move around and fill any available space. Gases have no fixed shape or volume. So, the differences observed in solids, liquids, and gases can be explained by the spacing and forces acting between the molecules. It's not about their relative masses, melting points, or the different molecules in each of them.

An electric heating coil rated at 1KW is used to heat 2kg of water for 2 minutes. The initial water temperature is 30o C. Taking the specific heat of the water as 4,000Jkg −1 and neglecting that of the container, the final water temperature is
Antwoorddetails
To determine the final temperature of the water, we can use the formula: Q = mcΔT where Q is the heat transferred, m is the mass of the water, c is the specific heat capacity of water, and ΔT is the change in temperature. We know that the power of the electric heating coil is 1KW, which means it transfers 1000 Joules of energy per second. In 2 minutes, or 120 seconds, it transfers 120,000 Joules of energy to the water. The mass of the water is given as 2kg and the specific heat capacity of water is 4000 J/kg°C. We can assume that the initial temperature of the water is 30°C. Using the formula, we can solve for the change in temperature: 120,000 J = (2 kg)(4000 J/kg°C)(ΔT) ΔT = 15°C Therefore, the final temperature of the water is 30°C + 15°C = 45°C. So, the final water temperature is 45.0oC.

A ball of mass 800g moving horizontally with a speed of 5m/s hits a vertical wall and rebounds with the same speed. The impulse experienced by the ball is?
Antwoorddetails
The impulse experienced by the ball can be calculated using the principle of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision. In this case, the momentum of the ball before the collision is: p1 = m * v1 where m is the mass of the ball and v1 is its velocity before the collision. Substituting the values given in the problem, we get: p1 = 0.8 kg * 5 m/s = 4 kg m/s After the collision, the ball rebounds with the same speed but in the opposite direction, so its velocity after the collision is: v2 = -5 m/s The momentum of the ball after the collision is: p2 = m * v2 Substituting the values, we get: p2 = 0.8 kg * (-5 m/s) = -4 kg m/s The negative sign indicates that the direction of the momentum is opposite to that before the collision. The change in momentum of the ball is given by: Δp = p2 - p1 Substituting the values, we get: Δp = (-4 kg m/s) - (4 kg m/s) = -8 kg m/s The negative sign indicates that the impulse experienced by the ball is in the opposite direction to its initial momentum, which is the direction of the wall. Therefore, the impulse experienced by the ball is 8 kg m/s. Therefore, the correct option is: 8kgm/s.

The density of 400cm3 of palm oil was 0.9gcm-3 before frying. If the density of the oil was 0.6gcm-3 after frying, assuming no loss of oil due to spilling, its new volume was?
Antwoorddetails
The density of a substance is defined as its mass per unit volume. Therefore, the mass of the palm oil before frying was: Mass = Density x Volume = 0.9 g/cm³ x 400 cm³ = 360 g After frying, the mass of the palm oil remains the same, but its density changes to 0.6 g/cm³. Therefore, the new volume of the palm oil can be calculated by rearranging the density formula: Volume = Mass / Density = 360 g / 0.6 g/cm³ = 600 cm³ So the new volume of the palm oil after frying is 600 cm³. is the correct answer.
Vraag 21 Verslag
Which of the following is an essential physical property of the wires uses for making fuses ?
Antwoorddetails
The essential physical property of the wire used for making fuses is low melting point. This means that the wire should have a low temperature at which it melts and breaks, interrupting the flow of electrical current. This is important in a fuse because when there is an overload of electrical current, the wire will melt, breaking the circuit and preventing damage to the electrical system. The other options, low density, low electrical resistivity, and hypothermal conductivity, are not as important for a fuse wire. Low density is the property of a material to be light, and it doesn't necessarily affect the performance of a fuse wire. Low electrical resistivity is the property of a material to have low resistance to the flow of electrical current, and it doesn't necessarily affect the performance of a fuse wire either. Hypothermal conductivity is the property of a material to conduct heat poorly, and it also doesn't necessarily affect the performance of a fuse wire.

Antwoorddetails
Convex mirrors are used as driving mirrors because the images formed by them are "erect, virtual, and diminished." Let me explain what these terms mean: - Erect: It means that the image appears upright, just like the actual object. This is important for a driving mirror because it allows the driver to perceive the correct orientation of the vehicles behind them. - Virtual: It means that the image appears to be behind the mirror, and not in front of it. This is also important for a driving mirror because it allows the driver to see a wider field of view without having to turn their head. - Diminished: It means that the image is smaller than the actual object. This is important for a driving mirror because it allows the driver to see a larger area behind them while still fitting it within the mirror's frame. Overall, these properties make convex mirrors ideal for use as driving mirrors as they provide the driver with an accurate view of the vehicles behind them without sacrificing their field of view.

A ball of mass 5.0kg hits a smooth vertical wall normally with a speed of 2ms?1
. Determine the magnitude of the resulting impulse
Antwoorddetails
The magnitude of the resulting impulse can be calculated using the formula impulse = change in momentum. In this scenario, the ball experiences a change in velocity (speed) as it hits the wall. The ball's initial momentum is equal to its mass times its velocity, and its final momentum is zero since it comes to a stop after hitting the wall. The change in momentum is equal to the final momentum minus the initial momentum, which is equal to the negative of the initial momentum. Since the ball has a mass of 5.0 kg and a velocity of 2 m/s, its initial momentum is 5.0 kg * 2 m/s = 10.0 kg m/s. Therefore, the change in momentum is -10.0 kg m/s and the magnitude of the resulting impulse is 10.0 kg m/s, which is equal to 10.0 Ns. So, the correct answer is 10.0kgms−1.

Which of the following is the dimension of pressure
Antwoorddetails
The dimension of pressure is ML-1T-2 Pressure is defined as the force per unit area. This means that pressure is dependent on the force applied and the area over which it is applied. The unit of force is measured in Newtons (N), and the unit of area is measured in square meters (m2). Therefore, the unit of pressure is N/m2, which is also known as Pascals (Pa). To determine the dimension of pressure, we need to break down the units into their fundamental dimensions of mass (M), length (L), and time (T). Force is measured in N, which is kg m/s2. Area is measured in m2, which is L2. Therefore, the dimension of pressure can be calculated as (kg m/s2)/(L2), which simplifies to ML-1T-2.

Which of the following is not a product of nuclear fusion?
Antwoorddetails
Neutron is not a product of nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion is the process by which two or more atomic nuclei come together to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. In most fusion reactions, the resulting products are alpha particles (helium nuclei) and energy in the form of gamma rays. X-rays and gamma rays are both forms of high-energy electromagnetic radiation that can be produced by nuclear reactions, including nuclear fusion. Alpha particles are also a common product of nuclear fusion, especially in the fusion reactions that power the sun. However, neutrons are not typically produced in fusion reactions. In fact, one of the major challenges in developing fusion as a practical energy source is finding ways to produce and control the high-energy neutrons that are generated in the process. Neutrons can be produced in some types of fusion reactions, but they are not a primary product. In summary, neutron is not a product of nuclear fusion, while X-rays, Y-rays (assuming this is a valid form of radiation), and alpha particles are common products of this process.

Antwoorddetails
A vernier caliper is a measuring device used to precisely measure linear dimensions. It is a very useful tool to use when measuring the diameter of a round objects like cylinders because the measuring jaws can be secured on either side of the circumference.
Vernier calipers have both a fixed main scale and a moving vernier scale. The main scale is graduated in either millimetres or tenths of an inch. The vernier scale allows much more precise readings to be taken (usually to the nearest 0.02mm or 0.001 inch) in comparison to a standard ruler (which only measures to th nearest 1mm or 0.25 inch).
The vernier scale was invented by French mathematician Pierre Vernier in 1631. As part of the vernier caliper, it is used together with the main scale, and helps to provide very precise measurements. Vernier calipers usually show either imperial or metric measurements, but some measure in both.

The linear expansivity of brass is 2 x 10?5
C?1
. If the volume of a piece of brass is 15.00cm at 0°C, what is the volume at 100°C
Antwoorddetails
The linear expansivity of brass is given as 2 x 10^-5 /°C. This means that for every 1°C increase in temperature, the brass expands by 2 x 10^-5 of its original size. To find the new volume of the brass at 100°C, we need to take into account the expansion in all three dimensions (length, width, and height). Since the expansivity given is for length only, we need to find the expansivity in all three dimensions by multiplying it by 3. The expansivity in all three dimensions is: 3 x (2 x 10^-5 /°C) = 6 x 10^-5 /°C To find the new volume, we can use the formula: Vf = Vi (1 + αΔT) where Vf is the final volume, Vi is the initial volume, α is the expansivity in all three dimensions, and ΔT is the change in temperature. Plugging in the values, we get: Vf = 15.00 cm3 (1 + (6 x 10^-5 /°C) x (100°C - 0°C)) Vf = 15.09 cm3 Therefore, the volume of the brass at 100°C is 15.09 cm3.

If the fraction of the atoms of a radioactive material left after 120years is 164 , what is the half-life of the material? 164
Antwoorddetails
The half-life of a radioactive material is the time it takes for half of the atoms in a sample to decay. The fraction of atoms left after a certain number of half-lives can be calculated using the formula: fraction left = (1/2)^(number of half-lives) Let's use this formula to solve the problem. We know that the fraction of atoms left after 120 years is 1/64, which means that: (1/2)^(number of half-lives) = 1/64 To solve for the number of half-lives, we can take the logarithm of both sides: log[(1/2)^(number of half-lives)] = log(1/64) Using the rule that log(a^b) = b*log(a), we can simplify the left side of the equation: number of half-lives * log(1/2) = log(1/64) Dividing both sides by log(1/2), we get: number of half-lives = log(1/64) / log(1/2) Using a calculator or the change of base formula, we can evaluate this expression: number of half-lives = 6 Therefore, the half-life of the material is 120/6 = 20 years.

The tendency of a body to remain at rest when a force is applied to it is called.
Antwoorddetails
The tendency of a body to remain at rest or to continue moving with a constant velocity (in a straight line at a constant speed) when no force is acting on it is called inertia. Inertia is a property of matter, and the amount of inertia depends on the mass of an object. Inertia can also be thought of as a resistance to changes in motion, meaning that an object at rest will tend to stay at rest, and an object in motion will tend to stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force. This property of inertia is what makes it difficult to start, stop, or change the direction of motion of an object. The force required to overcome the inertia of an object depends on the mass of the object and the magnitude of the acceleration desired. Therefore, the greater the mass of an object, the greater its inertia, and the more force required to change its motion.

Which of the following phenomena is the practical evidence for the existence of the continual motion of molecules.
Antwoorddetails
Brownian motion is the practical evidence for the existence of the continual motion of molecules. This phenomenon is observed as the random movement of particles suspended in a fluid, such as a liquid or a gas, due to the constant bombardment of the fluid molecules. It was first described by the Scottish botanist Robert Brown in 1827 and provides strong evidence for the kinetic theory of matter, which states that all matter is made up of constantly moving particles. The random movement of the suspended particles can be observed through a microscope and is a direct result of the continual motion of the fluid molecules.

Antwoorddetails
The primary reason that power is transmitted at high voltages is to increase efficiency. As electricity is transmitted over long distances, there are inherent energy losses along the way. High voltage transmission minimizes the amount of power lost as electricity flows from one location to the next. How? The higher the voltage, the lower the current. The lower the current, the lower the resistance losses in the conductors. And when resistance losses are low, energy losses are low also. Electrical engineers consider factors such as the power being transmitted and the distance required for transmission when determining the optimal transmission voltage

Which of the following does NOT describe the Image formed by a plane minor?
Antwoorddetails
The option that does NOT describe the image formed by a plane mirror is "Magnified". When an object is placed in front of a plane mirror, the image formed is: 1. Erect: The orientation of the object in the mirror is the same as the orientation of the object in real life. For example, if you raise your right hand in front of a plane mirror, the image in the mirror will also show your right hand raised. 2. Laterally inverted: The image formed in the mirror is flipped horizontally, which means that the left side of the object appears on the right side of the image and vice versa. For example, if you wear a shirt with the letter "H" on it and look at it in a plane mirror, the image will show the letter "H" flipped horizontally. 3. Same distance from the mirror as object: The image formed in the mirror is located behind the mirror at the same distance as the object is located in front of the mirror. For example, if you stand 1 meter away from a plane mirror, the image of yourself will also be located 1 meter away from the mirror, behind the mirror. 4. NOT magnified: The image formed in the plane mirror is of the same size as the object, which means that there is no magnification or reduction in the size of the image. For example, if you stand in front of a plane mirror with a height of 1 meter, the image of yourself in the mirror will also have a height of 1 meter. Therefore, the correct answer is "Magnified", as the image formed by a plane mirror is not magnified.
