Its velocity is slowed down to $18 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}$ in $4 s$ by an unbalanced external force. Calculate the acceleration and change in momentum. Also calculate the magnitude of the force required.
→Iron powder and sulphur powder were mixed together and divided into two parts $A$ and $B$. When part $A$ was heated strongly over a burner, then a substance $C$ was formed. The part $B$ was, however, not heated at all. When dilute hydrochloric acid was added to substance $C$, then gas $D$ was evolved and when dilute hydrochloric acid was added to part $B$ then gas $E$ was evolved.
→- What type of substance is $B$?
