We know that the mass of the log before burning is 5 kg. After it is burnt, the mass of the ash comes out to be 1 kg. So there is a definite mismatch of 4 kg. When the log is burnt, there is the formation of smoke. The air and water present in the wood vaporises to reduce the weight significantly. The combustion actually leads to the formation of carbon dioxide that mixes with the air and also water. The extra mass thus goes into the formation of carbon dioxide and water.

Why electrons flow in a wire when connected to a battery?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The metal atoms in the wire can't move, but their outer electrons can. The force pushes those electrons and they move to further parts of the wire, trying to reach the other end. As the electrons move away, new electrons flow into the wire through the battery to take their place.

A Nichrome wire 44 cm long and 0.30 mm in diameter is connected to a 3.1 V flashlight battery. What is the electric field inside
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

7.05 Volts/m

Explanation:

L = length of the Nichrome wire = 44 cm = 0.44 m

V = Potential difference across the end of the wire = battery voltage = 3.1 Volts

E = magnitude of electric field inside the wire

Magnitude of electric field inside the wire is given as

E = \frac{V}{L}

Inserting the values

E = \frac{3.1}{0.44}

E = 7.05 Volts/m
