Answer:

Option B

The molecules in thermometer spread apart

Explanation:

The mercury within the thermometer spread apart leading to an increase in temperature reading in the thermometer. The spreading apart of mercury molecules is caused by an increase in kinetic energy of molecules and with time the increase in kinetic energy decreases making the reading to stop increasing hence constant.

Which of the following is not an example of a chemical reaction? Rust, Photosynthesis, Melting Ice, Heat from Fire?
FinnZ [79.3K]
Rust, photosynthesis, and heat from fire are all chemical reactions <span>because </span>new substances are formed and the chemical formula is changed. By doing this, bonds are broken and formed in the making of the new substance. Melting ice is physical change the molecules are still water molecules, it just changed physical form.

The potential at location A is 382 V. A positively charged particle is released there from rest and arrives at location B with a
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: 247.67 V

Explanation:

Given

Potential At A V_a=382\ V

Potential at V_c=785\ V

when particle starts from A it reaches with velocity v_b at Point while when it starts from C it reaches at point B with velocity 2v_b

Suppose m is the mass of Particle

Change in Kinetic Energy of particle moving under the Potential From A to B

q\cdot \left ( V_a-V_b\right )=0.5m\cdot (v_b)^2----1

Change in Kinetic Energy of particle moving under the Potential From C to B

q\cdot \left ( V_c-V_b\right )=0.5m\cdot (2v_b)^2-----2

Divide 1 and 2 we get

\frac{V_a-V_b}{V_c-V_b}=\frac{v_b^2}{4v_b^2}

on solving we get

V_b=\frac{4}{3}\cdot V_a-\frac{1}{3}\cdot V_c

V_b=\frac{743}{3}=247.67\ V
