MCQ
Dry ice is
  • A
    Ice cube
  • B
    Sodium chloride
  • C
    Liquid nitrogen
  • Solid carbon dioxide

Answer

Correct option: D.
Solid carbon dioxide
d
(d) We know that when solid carbondioxide is heated, it becomes vapour directly without passing through its liquid phase.

Therefore it is called dry ice.

A small disk is attached to the end of a light inextensible string, which passes through a hole in a frictionless horizontal tabletop. Initially the disk moves on a circle of radius $R$ with kinetic energy $K_0$. The string is then slowly pulled so that the disk finally rotates on a circle of radius $\frac{R}{\eta }$. What is the work $W$ done in pulling the string
