There is an unbalanced force on the book caused by friction.
If there was no friction, the book would continue to slide.

Which set contains non-equivalent members?A) enthalpy and heat contentB) endothermic reaction and +HC) exothermic reaction and -
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Here in this question, what we will do is to select which of the pairs that do not correlate.

A. Enthalpy and heat content

This two terms are at par with each other. By definition, the enthalpy of a system simply is the total amount of heat content it has.

B. Endothermic reaction and +H

These two terms are at par with each other. An endothermic reaction is one in which heat is absorbed from the surroundings. It has a positive value for the heat content i.e the enthalpy is positive and thus H is positive.

C. Exothermic reaction and -H

An exothermic reaction is one in which heat is released to the environment. It usually has a negative value for the enthalpy and thus the value of H is negative.

D. High energy and High Stability

These two terms are not at par. When an entity has or is of high energy, it is usually unstable. An entity at a higher energy level will not be stable until it goes to a lower level of energy.

Thus higher energy level is associated with lesser stability while lower energy levels are associated with higher stability. The lesser the energy of an entity, the higher its stability.

This makes the option our answer.

In 1961, the reference for the atomic mass unit (amu or u) was changed from naturally occurring oxygen with a value of 16.000 u
vovangra [49]

To determine the mass of an atom in terms of atomic mass unit (a.m.u.) the standard should have the fixed mass otherwise the calculated mass of the other atoms will get error. Initially oxygen was used as the reference standard for the calculation of other atoms mass. But after the invention of different isotopes of oxygen i.e. O^{17} and O^{18} which ratios with respect to O^{16} is 1.002 the mass of standard oxygen became unstable. Thus the mass of the new atom have error. Thus in 1961 the standard reference is canged to carbon-12. After that onward the mass of the other atoms are measured with respect to carbon.

Planets that are larger in diameter, farther from the sun, and less dense then smaller planets in the solar system
are known as giant planets and they are composed of mostly gas like hydrogen gas for example. They are in contradistinction to the terrestrial planets like Mercury Venus Earth and Mars that are solid rock composed of silicate minerals.
