| 1.0 | (a) |
| 1.5 | 37.5 |
| 2.0 | 50.0 |
| (b) | 62.5 |
Ans. Let the speed of Cheeta is = v
a = 25 m/s
25b = 62.5
Hence a = 2.5 s
Q22.Define law of conservation of momentum, Derive a mathematical expression for the same.
Ans. Law of conservation of momentum states that if a change occurs in a system in an isolated condition then the initial momentum of the system always is equal to the final momentum of the system. As an example, if two objects colloids with each other then their initial momentum is equal to their final momentum.
Let two objects A and B of the masses m1 and m2 are moving with the velocity u1 and u2
After the collision, their velocity becomes v1 and v2
As we know the momentum = mass × velocity
Sum of initial momentum of both objects = m1 u1 + m2 u2
Sum of final momentum of both objects = m1 v1 + m2 v2
According to conservation of momentum
The initial momentum of both objects = Final momentum of both objects
m1 u1 + m2 u2 = m1 v1 + m2 v2

Q23.a) Define acceleration due to gravity.
b)At the equator, a bag of sugar weighs W kgs. Will it weigh the same. Or more or less? When taken to America? Give the reason for your answer.
Ans.
a) An object moves downward or upward to the earth is under the impact of the gravitational force, when it is thrown upwards its speed slowed down and after reaching to certain height speed becomes zero and then it returns back towards the earth and then its speed increases as it approaches nearer to the earth, it happens because of the acceleration due to gravity, so acceleration due to gravity can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object due to the gravitational force of the earth , it is a constant quantity and measured 9.81 m/s².
(b) The relationship of gravitational acceleration with the radius of the earth is expressed as follows
Where G= Universal constant of acceleration, R = Radius of the earth, M= Mass of the earth
The earth is bulged out at the equator and flattened at the poles, the radius of the earth is more at the equator in comparison to poles. America lies at the northern hemisphere so the distance of this location with respect to the centre of the earth is slightly lesser as compared to the equator. As it is seen in the equation that the value of g is less if the radius is more, so the value of g would be slightly more in America as compared to the equator, hence a bag of sugar weighs at America would be slightly more than W kgs.

Q25.Explain the observations of Rutherford’s scattering experiment (diagram also).
Ans. Rutherford bombarded α particles on thin gold foil and got the following observations.
(i) Maximum α particles penetrated through the gold foil indicates that the larger area of the atom is empty.
(ii) Some of the α particles deviated through a certain angle indicate that at the centre positive charge is located occupying a lesser area since positive charge repels another positive charge.
(iii) Very few of the α particles bounced back by 180º angle, indicates that positive charge at the centre occupies very less volume as compared to the whole of the atom.
Q26.An object of mass 100 kg is accelerated uniformly from a velocity of 5 m/s to 8 m/s in 6 seconds. Calculate the initial and final momentum of the object. Also, find the magnitude of the force exerted on the object.
Ans.
Mass of the object, m = 100 kg
Initial velocity, u of the object = 5 m/s
Final velocity, v of the object = 8 m/s
Initial momentum of the object = mu = 100 × 5 = 500 kg-m/s
Final momentum of the object = mv = 100 × 8 = 800 kg-m/s
Time, t = 6 seconds
Force = Rate of change of momentum
Q27.What are the weeds? Write two methods of weed control.

2. Biological method -involves the deliberate use of insects or some other organisms which consume and specifically destroy weed plants.
Q28.Sulphur has atomic number 16 and mass number 32. State the number of proton and neutrons present in the nucleus of sulphur. Give a simple diagram to show the arrangement of electrons in an atom of sulphur.
Ans. The atomic number of sulphur = 16
Number of protons in atom = Atomic number = 16
The number of protons + Number of neutrons = Mass number
Since the mass number of sulphur atom = 32
∴ Number of neutrons in sulphur atom = 32 – 16 = 16
We know the number of protons in an atom = Number of electrons in an atom
The number of electrons in sulphur atom = 16
Electronic configuration in the sulphur atom is given as follows

Q29.Explain the direction of movement of air during the day and night in coastal areas.
Ans. In coastal areas, during the daytime, there is a regular flow of cool air from the sea towards the land. At night, there is a reverse flow of air from land to sea. This happens because, during the daytime, the land gets heated faster than water and radiated heat from land, heats the air above it. The hot air rises and creates an area of low pressure.Sea water does not get heated rapidly, so the air above it is cooler than the air above land creating high-pressure area above the sea. The pressure difference between the area above seawater and the air above land area forces the airflow from sea to water. During the night time, the flow of air reverses because seawater takes time to cool, the air above the sea gets heated so the air above seawater creates a low-pressure area. At night the land cools rapidly, the air above land gets cooled that creates high-pressure area above the land. The pressure difference between sea and land forces the airflow from land to air.
Q30.a)Define hybridization. How is it useful for the crop; variety improvement?
Ans. The hybridization is one of the methods of crop variety improvement to increase the yield of crop production. In this method, two dissimilar plants of the same type of crop have crossed that results to produce high-quality seeds with high productivity.
The world population is increasing day by day, the area used for crop production is limited, so the requirement is high with limited resources. Hybridization is the technic used for increasing the yield of crop production, Hybrid seeds are disease resistive and maintain uniformity of seeds.
b). How much would a 70 kg astronaut weight on moon? What would be his mass on the earth and the moon?
Ans. The gravitational acceleration at the moon is one-sixth of earth’s gravitational acceleration. The 70 kg is the mass of astronaut,
Where g is the gravitational acceleration at the moon and g’ is the gravitational acceleration at the moon
The value of g = 9.8 m/s²
The weight of astronaut at the moon = Mass of astronaut × Gravitational acceleration at the moon
The weight of the astronaut at the moon = 114 N
The mass is a constant everywhere in the universe so the mass of the astronaut in the moon and the earth will be 70 kg.

5.The electronic configuration of Z = 2, 2
So, the valency of Z is 2
Q33.a)When a carpet is beaten with a stick, dust comes out of it. Explain.
b)Two objects of each of mass 1.5 kg, are moving in the same straight line but in the opposite direction. The velocity of each object is 2.5 m/s before the collision during which they stick together. What will be the velocity of the combined object after the collision?
Ans. a)Initially, carpet and dust particles both are in rest position but when the carpet is beaten by stick the carpet comes in motion but due to the inertia or first law of motion the dust particles resist to change their position so the dust particles detached from the carpet and hence comes out of the carpet.
b) The mass m of both objects is = 1.5 kg
The velocity of both objects are given before collision = 2.5 m/s
Let the velocity of the combined object after collision = v
The initial momentum of both objects = Final momentum of both objects
m1 u1 + m2 u2 = m1 v1 + m2 v2
If the velocity of one object is 2.5 m/s then the velocity of another object is = -2.5 because they are moving opposite to each other
1.5× 2.5 – 1.5× 2.5 = (1.5 + 1.5)v
3v = 0
v = 0
Hence the combined velocity of both object is 0 or they will come to in rest
Q34.a)Why is it difficult to hold a school bag having a strap made of a thin and strong string?
b)The volume of a 500 g sealed packet is 360 cm3. Will it sink or not if the density of water is 1gcm-3?
What will be the mass of the water displaced by this packet?
Ans. a) The relationship between thrust and pressure is P = F/A, where F is the thrust, P is pressure and A is the area. The school bag having a strap made of a thin strong string have a smaller area that increases pressure on the soldiers so it is difficult to hold.
b) The density of water is = 1 gcm-3
Mass of sealed packet = 500 g
The volume of sealed packet =360 cm3
The density of sealed packet > The density of water
Hence the sealed packet will sink in the water
The volume of water displaced by the sealed packet = The volume of sealed packet = 360 cm3
Mass of water displaced by sealed packet = Density of water × The volume of water displaced by the sealed packet
Q35.a)Which causes more severe burns−boiling water or stream at the same temperature? Why ?
b)Differentiate between boiling and evaporation.
Ans.a) Since the latent heat of steam is more than the water and its kinetic energy is also higher so steam causes severe burns even in the condition when both temperatures is the same.
b) Boiling is the process which starts at a particular temperature of the liquid. Boiling occurs on the entire mass of the liquid. Bubbles are formed during the process of boiling. Boiling occurs when a liquid is given the heat.
Evaporation takes place at all temperature. Evaporation occurs on the surface of the liquid when it gets heat from the surroundings. Bubbles are not formed like boiling. Evaporation occurs naturally.
Q36.a)Give three features of cardiac muscles.
b)Draw a neat, well –labelled diagram of neuron.

(i) Cardiac muscles are involuntary muscles and involve in rhythmic contraction and relaxation
(ii) Cardiac cells are cylindrical, elongated and of a single nucleus.
(iii) Cardiac cells are striated and grouped together through the intercalated disc that performs contractile functions of the heart.
b)
Q37.What is SONAR? How is it used to detect an underwater object and measure its distance?
Ans. SONAR stands for Sound Of Navigation And Ranging, it is used to detect the depth of the objects under the sea as following.
Let the depth of sea is = x and the speed of sound in water is = v
Time taken by the signal in returning back = t
Total distance covered by the signal = x + x = 2x
Hence x is the depth of sea or of an object under the sea.
