Mole Concept/ Stoichiometry question?
This is written in my physical chemistry book and i dont seem to understand even a bit of it:
For any compound MxNy (x.y in subscript)
y X no. of moles of M = x X no. of moles of N (M,N are elements)
4 AnswersChemistry8 years agoIs open schooling good for preparing for IIT-JEE ?
i feel like my time is being wasted when i go to school as the teachers are not really good and i cover everything in my coaching and tutions...... please mention all the pros and cons about open schooling for preparing for iit jee
thanks in advance
1 AnswerPrimary & Secondary Education8 years agoIs the tension/force same at the 2 ends of a spring if the spring is massless ? (Physics dynamics question)?
One end of a spring is attached to a wall and the other end is attached to a block of mass m. If i stretch the block to a distance x from the mean position, there will be a force equal to kx acting on the block towards the mean position. My question is that will an equal force act on the wall too ?
4 AnswersPhysics8 years agoWhy is the downward force not equal to the weight of the components ?(Physics question)(Image below)?

confused about the free body diagram....
Masses : 1=3kg,2=2kg,3=0.6kg,4=4kg
Why is the total downward pull on pulley B not equal to the sum of weights of 3 and 4 ?
If i dont know the acceleration of the 2 pulleys(hence the masses), how am i supposed to calculate anything(such as tension) ?? Please help asap.....
1 AnswerPhysics8 years agoWhat would be the reading of the spring balance ? (Physics tension question)?
if a spring balance is fixed to the roof..... and 2 forces P and Q are applied to the 2 ends what would be the reading ? The spring balance can not move
1 AnswerPhysics8 years agoWill an object keep on moving if I lower the force applied on the object ? (Static and Kinetic friction)?
Now, if the coefficient of static friction is 0.4 and that of kinetic friction is 0.3, and if i apply a force on a box of 10 kg, the box won't move till the applied force is 40N (by the formula f=μ(s)N). But as soon as the force becomes more than 40, the box starts moving and kinetic friction comes into play. The value of kinetic friction is 30N so does that mean that if lower the force to a little more than 30N, the box would still remain in motion ?
would appreciate a detailed answer....
