SECTION A (1 MARK )

1.  Which organelle is known as the powerhouse of the cell? Why?

Ans. Mitochondria is known as the powerhouse of the cell because they produce energy in the form of

ATP.

2.  Define Newton’s second law of motion and derive the formula of force?

Ans. Newton’s second law of motion states that rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to applied force and takes place in the direction in which the force acts.

Formula of force i.e F = ma

3.  Why the passengers tends to fall forward when the bus stops suddenly?

Ans. In a running bus, our speed is equal to the speed of bus. As a moving bus stops, the lower part of the

body being in contact with the bus comes to rest, but the upper part due its inertia of motion, remains

in the states of motion .Hence we fall in the forward direction.

4.  Why the athletes are provided with a cushion or a heap of sand to fall upon during high jump.

Ans. This is done to prevent injury to the athlete when he falls down after making a high jump as a

cushion or a heap of sand reduces the athletes momentum more gently.

5.  If abottle of perfumeis opened in one corner of a room, it immediately spreads throughout theroom. Why?

Ans. If abottle of perfumeis opened in one corner of a room, it immediately spreads throughout

theroom because the particles of matter are continuously moving.

6.  How can you say that mixed cropping and intercropping are advantageous .

Ans. Mixed cropping and intercropping are advantageous because they reduces the chance of crop failure

and enhance the production of crop per unit area.

7.  Convert the following temperature to degree Celsius

(i)773K (ii) -333K

Ans. (i) 773 K = 773 - 273 = 5000 C

(ii) -333K = -333 – 273 = -6060C

8.  How does the water kept in an earthen pot (matka) become cool during summer?

Ans. An earthen pot has porous wall. When water evaporates from the outer surface of the earthen wall,

it takes the latent heat of vaporisation from the earthen pot and thus causes cooling. As a result, the

temperature of water falls.

9.  Name the technique to separate - (a) Salt from sea water (b) Butter from curd.

Ans. (a) Evaporation and crystallization (b) Centifugation

10.  Draw a well labelled diagram of neuron.

11.  What is the physical state of water at

a)0oC?

b)100oC

Ans. (a) At 0oC the physical state of water is solid and liquid.

(b) At 100oC the physical state of water is both liquid and gas.

12.  Liquids generally have lower density as compared to solids. But ice floats on water. Why?

Ans. When water is converted into ice, its volume expands about 10 % in comparison to the volume of

water. Thus, ice occupies more space. As a result, its density decreases and it floats on water.

13.  Describe the formation of Green manure and vermicomposting.

Ans. Green manure:- Some plant like sun hemp or gaur are grown in the field prior to the sowing of the crop seeds. These are then mulched by ploughing them into the soil.These green plants gradually decompose and turn into green manure which helps in enriching the soil in nitrogen and phosphorus.

Vermicomposting:- It is the compost prepared from organic matter using earthworms which hasten the process of decomposition.

2.  From a rifle of mass 4 kg, a bullet of mass 50 g is fired with an initial velocity of 35 m s-1. Calculate the initial recoil velocity of the rifle.

Ans. Mass of bullet = 50÷1000 = 0.05 kg

Velocity of bullet = 35 ms-1

9.  A force of 5 N gives a mass m1, an acceleration of 10 m/s2 & on mass m2, an acceleration of 20 m/s2 , what acceleration would it give if both the masses were tied together?

Ans. (i) In the first case :

F = 5N

Mass = m1

Acceleration a = 10 m/s2

F = m1 × a

m1 = 5 ÷ 10 = 0.5 Kg

(ii) In the second case :

F = 5N

Mass = m2

Acceleration a = 10 m/s2

F = m2 × a

m2 = 5 ÷ 20 = 0.25 Kg

(iii) In the third case :

F = 5N

Mass = m1 + m2 = 0.50 + 0.25 = 0.75 kg

Acceleration a = 10 m/s2

Acceleration = 5 ÷ 0.75 = 6.66 m/s2
