The Olympic sport of curling is one that is practically designed to show Physics in motion. Curling is a sport in which two teams alternate sliding smoothed stone pucks down an ice rink court with the intent to seat their stone closest to the center of the target (called the house). Each team has eight stones, meaning that the team that goes second has the (could be) massive advantage of sending the last stone.
The mass of the stone is important in that the more massive a stone (m) and the speed at which it travels (v) dictates it's momentum (momentum=mxv). As the curling stone slides down the ice (which is relatively frictionless unless acted upon by other players or objects) and having inertia, continues in it's straight course (again, unless acted upon by outside forces). If the stone hits another stone, it transfers some of its momentum in an elastic collision to that stone and the original stone is deflected in a calculable manner.
Collisions are used in the game to either clear opponent's stones from the house or out of their defensive positions, or to make adjustments to one's stones present in the house, all based on the momentum of the moving stone, and its transference.
Answer:
THE CURRENT REQUIRED TO PRODUCE 193000 C OF ELECTRICITY IS 35.74 A.
Explanation:
Equation:
Al3+ + 3e- -------> Al
3 F of electricity is required to produce 1 mole of Al
3 F of electricity = 27 g of Al
If 18 g of aluminium was used, the quantity of electricity to be used up will be:
27 g of AL = 3 * 96500 C
18 G of Al = x C
x C = ( 3 * 96500 * 18 / 27)
x C = 193 000 C
For 18 g of Al to be produced, 193000 C of electricity is required.
To calculate the current required to produce 193 000 C quantity of electricity, we use:
Q = I t
Quantity of electricity = Current * time
193 00 = I * 1.50 * 60 * 60 seconds
I = 193 000 / 1.50 * 60 *60
I = 193 000 / 5400
I = 35.74 A
The cuurent required to produce 193,000 C of electricity by 18 g of aluminium is 35.74 A

Answer:
The time taken for the cross to become invisible decreases.
Explanation:
We know that one of the factors affecting the rate of reaction is the concentration of reactants. From the collision theory, we know that the higher the concentration of reactants, the greater the possibility of effective collision between reactants leading ultimately to an increase in the rate of reaction. Increase in the rate of reaction implies that the reaction takes a shorter time to reach completion.
In the case of the reaction shown in the question, the point when the reaction is completed is observed by the time take for the cross mark to become invisible. If we look at the given data closely, we will notice that the volume of acid was held constant, the volume of thiosulphate was increased gradually while the volume of water was decreased accordingly. This implies that the concentration of the reactants was increased. Decreasing the volume of water increases reactant concentration.
As explained above, increase in reactant concentration increases the rate of reaction. Hence, the rate of reaction of the acid and thiosulphate increases as reactant concentration increases and the cross mark becomes invisible faster. This implies that in the last column for time taken for the cross to become invisible, the values of time decreases steadily as concentration of reactants increases.
