143. Two tumblers stuck together can be separated by
(a) pouring ice cold water into the inner tumbler
(b) pouring ice cold water on the outer tumbler
(c) pouring hot water into the inner tumbler
(d) dipping both the tumblers in hot water

Ans: (a)

144. Skating on ice is possible because
(a) the surface of ice is smooth
(b) ice is cold
(c) the pressure on the ice due to skate melts the ice by lowering its melting point forming a thin film of water
