Question
A more powerful vehiclewould complete a journey in a shorter timethan a less powerful one. We talk of the powerof machines like motorbikes and motorcars.The speed with which these vehicles changeenergy or do work is a basis for theirclassification. Power measures the speed ofwork done, that is, how fast or slow work isdone. Power is defined as the rate of doingwork or the rate of transfer of energy. If anagent does a work $W$ in time $t$, then power isgiven by$P$= work/time
$P= W/T$. The unit of power is watt.
(i) The rate of doing work is defined as
$(a)$ Energy
$(b)$ Force
$(c)$ Power
$(d)$ None of these
(ii) Total energy consumed divided by total time taken is called as
$(a)$ Average power
$(b)$ Instantaneous power
$(c)$ Both $a$ and $b$
$(d)$ None of these
(iii) Let A and B having same weight start climbing the rope and reach height of 10m. Let A takes 10sec while B takes 12sec then work done
$(a)$ By both will be same
$(b)$ By $A$ is more than work done by $B$
$(c)$ By $B$ is more than work done by $A$
$(d)$ None of these
(iv) Define 1 Watt of power
(v) An electric bulb of 20W is used for 5h per day. Calculate the ‘units’ of energy consumed in one day by the bulb.

Answer

$(i) c$
$(ii) a$
$(iii) a$
$(iv)$ A power is said to be $1$ watt when $1$ joule of work is done within $1$ second of time.
$(v)$ Power of electric bulb $= 20\ W$
$= 0.02\ kW.$
Time used, $t = 5\ h$
Energy = power $\times $ time taken
$= 0.02kW \times 5 h$
$= 0.10 kW\ h$
$= 0.10$‘units’.
The energy consumed by the bulb $0.10$ units

A farmer has grown wheat on his field consecutively two times but when the third time he grows wheat on the same field the quality of the wheat was not up to the desired level. To improve the quality of his crops he uses chemical fertilizer but the condition of the crop became worse. One of his friends told him to grow a different variety of crops after wheat so as to grow two or three crops in a year with good harvests and use biological manure in place of chemical fertilizers which he prepares by animal excreta and plant waste to get the good quality of crops. He also told him about the good storage of his grains to protect them from the biotic and abiotic losses as in agriculture storage losses are very high.
i. What are the bases on which the next crop is decided to grow in the same field also name the process?
ii. What is the advantage of using biological manure over chemical fertilizers?
iii. Is it possible for the farmer to grow two crops at the same time if yes what is the requirement?
OR
Enlist the biotic and abiotic losses?
A violin and a flute may both be played the same time in an orchestra. Bothsounds travel through the same medium,that is, air and arrive at our ear at the sametime. Both sounds travel at the same speedirrespective of the source. But the soundswe receive are different. This is due to thedifferent characteristics associated with thesound. Pitch is one of the characteristics.How the brain interprets the frequency ofan emitted sound is called its pitch. The fasterthe vibration of the source, the higher is the frequency and the higher is the pitch. The magnitude of the maximumdisturbance in the medium on either side ofthe mean value is called the amplitude of thewave. It is usually represented by the letter $(A)$.The loudness or softness of a sound isdetermined basically by its amplitude. Theamplitude of the sound wave depends uponthe force with which an object is made tovibrate. If we strike a table lightly, we hear asoft sound because we produce a sound waveof less energy (amplitude).
The quality or timber of sound is thatcharacteristic which enables us to distinguishone sound from another having the same pitchand loudness. The sound which is morepleasant is said to be of a rich quality. A sound of single frequency is called a tone. The sound which is produced due to a mixture of several frequencies is called a note and is pleasant to listen to. Noise is unpleasant to the ear! Music is pleasant to hear and is of rich quality.
(i) Pitch of sound is higher when
$(a)$ Vibration of source of sound is higher
$(b)$ Vibration of source of sound is Lower
$(c)$ Independent of vibration of source of sound
$(d)$ None of these
(ii) Loudness and softness of sound depends upon
$(a)$ Frequency of sound
$(b)$ Amplitude of sound
$(c)$ Wavelength of sound
$(d)$ None of these
(iii) Sound of single frequency is called
$(a)$ Note
$(b)$ Tone
$(c)$ Noise
$(d)$ None of these
(iv)If we strike a table lightly, we hear asoft sound. If we hit the tablehard we hear a louder sound up to large distance. Why?
(v) Determine which of the following has higher pitch railway horn or guitar?
Elemental oxygen is normally found in the form of a diatomic molecule. However, in the upper reaches of the atmosphere, a molecule containing three atoms of oxygen is found. This would mean a formula of $O3$ and this is called ozone. Unlike the normal diatomic molecule of oxygen, ozone is poisonous and we are lucky that it is not stable nearer to the Earth’s surface. But it performs an essential function where it is found. It absorbs harmful radiations from the Sun. This prevents those harmful radiations from reaching the surface of the Earth where they may damage many forms of life. Recently it was discovered that this ozone layer was getting depleted. Various man-made compounds like $CFCs$ (carbon compounds having both fluorine and chlorine which are very stable and not degraded by any biological process) were found to persist in the atmosphere. Once they reached the ozone layer, they would react with the ozone molecules. This resulted in a reduction of the ozone layer and recently they have discovered a hole in the ozone layer above the Antarctica. It is difficult to imagine the consequences for life on Earth if the ozone layer dwindles further, but many people think that it would be better not to take chances. These people advocate working towards stopping all further damage to the ozone layer.

‘scientific’ name for organisms in the same manner that chemical symbols and formulae for various substances are used in the world. The scientific name for an organism is thus unique and can be used to identify it anywhere in the world.The system of scientific naming or nomenclature we use today was introduced by Carolus Linnaeus in the eighteenth century. The scientific name of an organism isthe process of classification which puts it along with the organisms it is most related to. But when we actually name the species, we do not list out the whole hierarchy of groups it belongs to. Instead, we limit ourselves to writing the name of the genus and species of that particular organism. World over, it has been agreed that both these names will be used in Latin forms.
Certain conventions are followed while writing the scientific names:
(1) The name of the genus begins with a capital letter.
(2) The name of the species begins with a small letter.
(3) When printed, the scientific name is given in italics.
(4) When written by hand, the genus name and the species name have to be underlined separately.
(1) The system of scientific naming or nomenclature we use today was introduced by
$(a)$ Carolus Linnaeus
$(b)$ Ernst Haeckel

$100 \ ml$ of water at room temperature of $25^{\circ} C$ is taken in a beaker and a little of solid $S$ is dissolved in it by stirring to obtain a solution $X$ . More and more of solid $S$ is added to the solution with constant stirring, while keeping the temperature of solution constant at $30^{\circ} C$. After some time it is observed that no more solid dissolves in water and at the same time some solid is also left undissolved at the bottom of the beaker. The contents of beaker are filtered through a filter paper to obtain solution $Y$ in the form of a filtrate.
a. What name is given to solutions like $X ?$
b. What name is given to solution like $Y ?$
c. What will you observe if the solution $Y$ at $30^{\circ} C$ is cooled down to $10^{\circ} C$ by keeping the beaker in crushed ice? Why?
d. What term is used to denote the amount of solid dissolved in $100$ grams of water in a solution like $Y ?$
A solid mixture contains four constituents $P, Q, R$ and $S. P$ consists of tiny grains and it is mixed with cement for plastering the walls. $Q$ is a white solid which is recovered on a large scale from sea water by the process of evaporation. $R$ is in the form of tiny particles of a material whose corrosion is called rusting. And $S$ is a white solid which is used in making ordinary dry cells.
  1. What could $P, Q, R$ and $S$ be?
  2. How would you separate a mixture containing $P, Q, R$ and $S?$
Read the following text carefully and answer the questions that follow:
Homogeneous mixtures are regarded as solutions or true solutions. Heterogeneous mixtures are of two types. These are suspensions and colloidal solutions. These differ in the size of the particles responsible for the difference in their properties. In a suspension, the particle size is more than $10^{-5} cm$ whereas in a colloidal solution, it ranges between $10^{-5} cm$ to $10^{-7} cm$. The two phases which constitute colloidal solutions, are dispersed phase and dispersion medium. Based upon their nature, the colloidal solutions are classified into eight types. The mixture of the nonreacting gases is always homogeneous irrespective of their nature. Therefore, it is not a colloidal solution.
