Question 7:
Give reason for the following :
(a) The sound of a thunder is heard a little later than the flash of light is seen,
(b) The ceilings of the concert hall are curved.
(c) Some animals get disturbed before the earthquakes.
Answer:
(a) In lightning process, flash and thunder are produced simultaneously. Flash is seen almost immediately because speed of light is extraordinarily large (c = 3 × 108 m s-1). But thunder is heard a few seconds later because speed of sound is much less (about 346 m s-1 at 25 °C) and requires time to cover up the distance from the site of thunder in sky to us.
(b) The ceilings of concert halls and conference halls are generally curved as shown in figure. It is done to ensure that the sound after reflection from the ceilings reaches all corners of the hall.
(c) Before earthquakes generally infrasonic shock waves are produced. Some animals, who are sensitive to infrasonic waves, get disturbed due to them.
Question 8:
The velocity-time graph of an object is shown in the figure.
(a) State the kind of motion that object has from AtoB and from B to C.
(b) Identify the part of graph where the object has zero acceleration. Give reason for your answer.
(c) Identify the part of graph where the object has negative acceleration. Give reason for your answer.
Answer:
(a) Region AB of graph shows uniform motion but the region BC shows non-uniform motion.
(b) In region AB of the graph the object has zero acceleration because velocity in this
region is constant at 40 m s-1.
(c) In region BC the object has negative acceleration because the velocity is falling from 40 m s-1 at point B (time = 25 s) to zero at point C (time = 45 s).
Question 9:
(a) Suggest two ways to decrease pressure on a surface.
(b) Density of an object is 1.8 g/cm3. Express it in kg/m3.

Explain the basis of Principle of Treatment for any disease.
Answer:
There are two ways to treat an infectious disease. They are as follows :
(i) Reduce the effect of disease : The principle involved is that the effect of disease is lessened without killing the infectious agent which is done either by taking medicines and antibiotics as well as taking appropriate rest so that the body heals.
(ii) Kill the microorganisms of infectious agents : The infectious agents like bacteria, viruses, fungi, helminths and protozoan’s have some essential biochemical life processes which are peculiar to this group. These processes may be pathways for respiration or synthesis of new substances. Drugs are available which block these processes and kill the infectious agents. Antibiotics are chemicals produced by microbes which kill or prevent the growth of other microbe by blocking life processes without harming human cells.

Question 16:
(a) How would you arrive at a mathematical formula to measure force using second law of motion ? Define the unit of force using this formula.
(b) A bullet of mass 10 g travelling horizontally with a velocity of 150 ms-1 strikes a stationary wooden block and comes to rest in 0.03 s. Calculate the distance of penetration of the bullet into the block. Also, calculate the magnitude of the force exerted by the wooden block on the bullet.
Answer:
(a) Newton’s second law of motion states that the rate of change of momentum of an object is directly proportional to the external unbalanced force applied on it and takes place in the direction of applied force.
Let an object of mass m was initially moving with a velocity u. It means that its initial
momentum
p1 = mu.
If on applying a constant force F for time t the velocity of the object changes to v then final momentum of given object p2 = mv.
Change in momentum = P2 – P1 = mv – mu = m(v – u)
Rate of change of momentum = \(\frac { { p }_{ 2 }{ -p }_{ 1 } }{ t } =\frac { m\left( v-u \right) }{ t } =ma\),
where a =\(\frac { \left( v-u \right) }{ t } \) = acceleration of the given object
According to statement of second law of motion, the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force. Hence, we have
F ∝ \(\frac { { p }_{ 2 }{ -p }_{ 1 } }{ t } \) or F ∝ ma
F = kma, where k is a constant of proportionality.
Generally the units of force are so selected that if m = 1 and a = 1, then force F = 1. In such a case value of constant k becomes 1 and the relation becomes :
F = ma
The SI unit of force is a newton (1 N), which is the force which produces an acceleration of 1 m s-2 when applied on an object of mass 1 kg.
and the force exerted by the wooden block on the bullet F = ma = (0.01) × (- 5000) = – 50 N
The -ve sign of force shows that the force is a retarding force or it is opposing the motion.
Question 17:
(a) Define work. Give SI unit of work done. Write an expression for positive work done.
(b) Calculate the work done in pushing a cart through a distance of 50 m against the force of friction equal to 250 N. Also state the type of work done.
(c) What will be the work done if displacement of the object is perpendicular to the direction of force ?
(d) When an object moves on a circular path, what will be the work done ?
Answer:
(a) Work done on an object is defined as the magnitude of the force acting on the object multiplied by the distance moved by the object in the direction of the applied force.
∴ Work (W) = Constant force applied (F) × Displacement along the direction of force (s).
SI unit of work is called joule (J or N m). Work is said to be 1 joule if under the influence of a force of 1 N the object moves through a distance of 1 m along the direction of applied force.
(b) Force applied in forward direction so as to overcome force of friction = F = 250 N and displacement in the direction of force s = 50 m
∴ Work done W = Fs = 250 N × 50 m = 12500 J
The work done is positive.
(c) If displacement is perpendicular to the direction of force the work done is zero.
(d) Work done on an object is zero when it moves on a circular path because displacement is perpendicular to the direction of force.
OR
(a) Define potential energy of an object. Give an expression for gravitational potential energy.
(b) A car of mass 2000 kg is lifted up a distance of 30 m by a crane in 2 minutes. What is the power supplied by the crane ? (g = 9.8 m s-2)
Answer:
(a) The potential energy of an object is the energy present in it by virtue of its position or configuration or change thereoff.
If an object of mass m is situated at a height h from a reference ground level, then its gravitational potential energy is
Ep = mgh
(b) Here mass of car m = 2000 kg, vertical distance covered by car s = h = 30 m and time t = 2
minutes = 2 x 60 s = 120 s
∴ Total work done by crane W = mgh
∴ Power supplied by the crane t = \(\frac { w }{ t } \) = \(\frac { mgh }{ t } \) = \(\frac { 2000\times 9.8\times 30 }{ 120 } \) = 4900 W or 4.9 kW
