Answer:

When an object moves its length contracts in the direction of motion. The faster it moves the shorter it gets in the direction of motion. The object in this question moves and then stops moving. So it's length first contracts and then expands to its original length when the motion stops. The speed doesn't have to be anywhere near the speed of light. When the object moves its length contracts no matter how fast or slow it's moving.

When you increase the temperature of an exothermic reaction the equilibrium will shift?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer : When we increase the temperature of an exothermic reaction the equilibrium will shift to the left direction i.e, towards the reactant.

Explanation :

Le-Chatelier's principle : This principle states that if any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

As the given reaction is an exothermic reaction in which the heat is released during a chemical reaction. That means the temperature is decreased on the reactant side.

For an exothermic reaction, heat is released during a chemical reaction and is written on the product side.

A\rightleftharpoons B+\text{ heat}

If the temperature is increases in the equilibrium then the equilibrium will shift in the direction where, temperature is getting decreased. Thus, the reaction will shift to the left direction i.e, towards the reactant.

Hence, when we increase the temperature of an exothermic reaction the equilibrium will shift to the left direction i.e, towards the reactant.

Mkey [24]
This is a question on conservation of energy. That is,
mgh + KE1 = KE2
mgh +1/2mv1^2 = 1/2mv2^2
gh + 1/2v1^2 = 1/2v2^2

Where, h = 0.2 m, v1 =3.04 m/s
Therefore,
v2 = Sqrt [2(gh+1/2v1^2)] = Sqrt [2(9.81*0.2 + 1/2*3.04^2)] = 7.26 m/s

Now, Volumetric flow rate, V/time, t = Surface area, A*velocity, v
Where,
V = Av = πD^2/4*3.04 = π*(2.51/100)^2*1/4*3.04 = 1.504*10^-3 m^3/s

At 0.2 m below,
V = 1.504*10^-3 m^3/s = A*7.26
A = (1.504*10^-3)/7.26 = 2.072*10^-4 m^2

But, A = πr^2
Then,
r = Sqrt (A/π) = Sqrt (2.072*10^-4/π) = 0.121*10^-3 m
Diameter = 2r = 0.0162 m = 1.62 cm

A small candle is 34 cm from a concave mirror having a radius of curvature of 22 cm. Where will the image of the candle be locat
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

16.26 cm in front of the mirror

Explanation:

Using,

1/f = 1/u+1/v....................... Equation 1

Where f = focal focal length of the concave mirror, u = object distance, v = image distance.

make v the subject of the equation

v = fu/(u-f)................... Equation 2

Note: The focal length of a concave mirror is positive

Using the real- is- positive convention

Given: f = 22/2 = 11 cm, u = 34 cm.

Substitute into equation 2

v = (34×11)/(34-11)

v = 374/23

v = 16.26 cm.

The image will be formed 16.26 cm in front of the mirror.

Which statement correctly describes a property of white light?
Kobotan [32]

If the light is really "white", then it contains all wavelengths
of visible light. 

When white light strikes any object that reflects any wavelength
of visible light, the object appears to be the color that it reflects.
