11.  
    1. F1/A1=F2/A2
       200/25=5000/A₂
       A₂=625CM²
    2. A₂=625cm²

12. White surfaces are good reflectors of heat and light.
13. Emission of industrial gases into the atmosphere. Caurses global warming.
14. Warm air rises due to low density.Cold fresh air are dense hence get into the room through the lower part of the door.
15. The higher the temperature the higher the rate of the movement of the smoke       particles and vise versa.
16. The area of contact affects pressure.The smaller the contact area the greater the pressure and vise versa holding all other factors constant.
17. when the ring is heated,it expands hence the ball can pass through.
