<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option 2.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Centripetal force is defined as the force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed towards the center around which the body is moving.
Mathematically,

Where,
= centripetal force
m = mass of the object
v = tangential velocity
r = radius of the path
From the above relation, X corresponds to the radius and Y corresponds to the tangential velocity.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.
Answer: Hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed.
Explanation:
The formula for average speed is :

R = gas constant
T = temperature
M = Molecular Mass
Now putting all the values:



Thus average speed of hydrogen is 8 times the average speed of oxygen. Thus hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed
Answer:
C. 1 cubic foot of loose sand
Explanation:
For many objects having equal volume , surface area will be maximum
of the object which has spherical shape .
But when a sphere is broken into tiny small spheres , total surface area of all the small spheres will be more than surface area of big sphere .
Hence among the given option , surface area of loose sand will have greatest surface area . Loose sand is equivalent to small spheres .
