Answer: B) Zinc will act as Anode
Explanation:
Standard reduction potential of zinc and nickel are:
Here Zinc undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode as it has more negative reduction potential.
Nickel undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode. as it has less negative reduction potential.
Where both
are standard reduction potentials.
As the emf is positive, the reaction is spontaneous and reaction will occur.
Thus Zinc will act as anode.
This is very good conceptual question and can clear your doubts regarding work-energy theorem.
Whenever force is perpendicular to the direction of the motion, work done by that force is zero.
According to work-energy theorem,
Work done by all the force = change in kinetic energy.
here, work done = 0.
Therefore,
0=change in kinetic energy
This means kinetic energy remains constant.

Thermal conduction mostly involves the motion of
ELECTRONS
This means that two objects will reach the ground at the same time if they are dropped simultaneously from the same height. ... When air resistance plays a role, the shape of the object becomes important. In air, a feather and a ball do not fall at the same rate.
C
Terminal velocity is the maximum velocity attainable by an object as it falls through a fluid (air is the most common example). It occurs when the sum of the drag force (Fd) and the buoyancy is equal to the downward force of gravity (FG) acting on the object.(Wikipedia)
