State the universal law of gravitation.

Which of the following are matter?

A force of 7 N acts on an object. The displacement is, say 8 m, in the direction of the force (Fig. 11.3). Let us take it that the force acts on the object through the displacement. What is the work done in this case?

How does the sound produced by a vibrating object in a medium reach your ear?

In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.

sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water

What are canal rays?

State any two conditions essential for good health.

How is our atmosphere different from the atmospheres on Venus and Mars?

An object has moved through a distance. Can it have zero displacement? If yes, support your answer with an example.

             7                                 343
(a) What conclusion can you draw about the acceleration? Is it constant, increasing, decreasing, or zero?
(b) What do you infer about the forces acting on the object?

A trolley, while going down an inclined plane, has an acceleration of 2 cm s^-2. What will be its velocity 3 s after the start?

The volume of a 500 g sealed packet is 350 cm³. Will the packet float or sink in water if the density of water is 1 g cm^-3? What will be the mass of the water displaced by this packet?
