ii) Surface tension has been reduced at A and higher surface tension at B pulls the math stick.

9. when it is heated it expands and volume increases hence does not pass through the ring. When left
on the ring it heats the ring, the ring expands the diameter increases while the ball cools reducing
its volume hence passes through.
10. Unstable
12. In the shoes one exerts his/ her weight on a very small area therefore producing very high pressure
which causes pain when placed on the hand it has negligible weight on a very large area
negligible pressure.
