Consider the following reactions at $1000\,^oC$:
$(I)$ $Zn_{(s)} + \frac{1}{2}O_{2(g)} \rightarrow ZnO_{(s)}; \Delta G^o = -360\,kJ\,mol^{-1}$
$(II)$ $C_{(s)} + \frac{1}{2}O_{2(g)} \rightarrow CO_{(g)}; \Delta G^o = -460\,kJ\,mol^{-1}$
Choose the correct statement at $1000\,^oC$.

  • A
    $ZnO$ is more stable than $CO$

    $ZnO$ can be reduced to $Zn$ by $C$
  • C

Two particles of mass $m$ each are tied at the ends of a light string of length $2a$. The whole system is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface with the string held tight so that each mass is at a distance $a$ from the centre $P$ (as shown in the figure). Now,the mid-point of the string is pulled vertically upwards with a small but constant force $F$. As a result,the particles move towards each other on the surface. The magnitude of acceleration,when the separation between them becomes $2x$,is
