Question 11 Mark
A spaceship travels 36000 km in one hour. Express its speed in $km / s$.
Answer

$\begin{aligned} \text { As, speed } & =\frac{\text { distance }}{\text { time }}=\frac{36000}{1 \times 3600} \quad[\therefore 1 h=3600 s] \\ & =10 km / s \end{aligned}$

Question 41 Mark
Estimate that how many hours are there in a year?
Answer
In a year, we have 365 days and 1 day $=24 h$
So, for 365 days, we have $24 \times 365 h=8760 h$

Question 51 Mark
Determine the number of seconds in a day.
Answer
In a day, we have 24 h.
We know that $1 h=3600 s$
So, $24 h=3600 \times 24=86400 s$

Question 61 Mark
State how do we measure time interval of a month and a year?
Answer
Time interval of a month is measured by one new moon to the next.
Time interval of a year is measured as the time taken by the earth to complete one revolution of the sun.

Question 71 Mark
If you did not have a clock, how would you decide what time of the day is?
Answer
We can decide time of the day without clock by seeing shadow formed by the sun, e.g. at noon, shadow formed by the sun is shorter than at evening.

Question 81 Mark
How will you decide which object is moving fast and which one is moving slow?
Answer
If an object covers more distance in equal intervals of time with respect to other, then we can say that object is moving faster with respect to the other object.

Question 91 Mark
A simple pendulum is oscillating between two points A and B as shown in figure. Is the motion of the bob uniform or non-uniform?
Image
Answer
The motion of bob is uniform as it covers equal distance in equal intervals of time.

Question 201 Mark
Paheli and Boojho have to cover different distances to reach their school but they take the same time to reach the school. What can you say about their speed?
Answer
They do not have equal speed because they cover unequal distances in equal intervals of time.
One of them has higher speed whom has to cover larger distances with respect to other.

Question 211 Mark
Figure shows the distance-time graph for the motion of two vehicles A and B. Which one of them is moving faster?
Image
Answer
As, from the given graph, slope of A is greater than B, i.e. distance covered by A in same time with respect to B is greater. So, A is moving with faster speed than B.

The basic unit of speed is
(a) $km / min$
(b) $m / min$
(c) $km / h$
(d) $m / s$
Answer
The basic unit of speed is metre/second or $m / s$, so option (d) is correct.

Question 231 Mark
Which of the following relations is correct?
(a) Speed $=$ Distance $\times$ Time
(b) Speed $=\frac{\text { Distance }}{\text { Time }}$
(c) Speed $=\frac{\text { Time }}{\text { Distance }}$
(d) Speed $=\frac{1}{\text { Distance } \times \text { Time }}$
Answer
Relation (b) is correct as speed is given by total distance covered by total time taken.

Question 241 Mark
Salma takes 15 min from her house to reach school on a bicycle. If the bicycle has a speed of 2m/ s, calculate the distance between her house and the school.
Answer
As, we know that
Distance covered by the body $=$ Speed $\times$ Time
Given, speed $=2 m / s$
Time $=15 min=15 \times 60=900 s$
So, distance $=900 \times 2=1800 m=1.8 km$

Question 251 Mark
A simple pendulum takes 32s to complete 20 oscillations. What is the time period of the pendulum?
Answer
Time period of simple pendulum is given by
$\frac{\text { Time taken }}{\text { Number of oscillations }}=\frac{32}{20} s=1.6 s$
(i.e. the time to complete one cycle)
