Explain the following giving examples.
(a) saturated solution
(b) pure substance
(c) colloid
(d) suspension
(a) A solution in which no more solute can be dissolved at a particular temperature. i.e. it contains the maximum amount of salute. Example: an aqueous sugŠ°r solution in which more sugar cannot be added.
(b) The substance which is formed by only one kind of particle and having a constant. Composition of chemicals and characteristics. Properties throughout the sample. Example :- sugar and salt contains only one kind of particle and have the name composition throughout.
(c) It is a heterogeneous mixture having salute size greater than Ihm and smaller than 100 mm. They can scatter beams of light passing through. Example :- in milk, rubber, clouds etc.
(d) These are heterogenous mixtures of solids dispersed in liquids. The solute particles are insoluble and remain suspended throughout the bulk of medium. the solute size is greater than 100 mm. Example - dust article in air, muddy water etc
Abdul, while driving to school, computes the average speed for his trip to be 20 km h-1. On his return trip along the same route, there is less traffic and the average speed is 40 km h-1. What is the average speed for Abdul’s trip?
An object of mass 40 kg is raised to a height of 5 m above the ground. What is its potential energy? If the object is allowed to fall, find its kinetic energy when it is half-way down.
A driver of a car travelling at 52 km h-1 applies the brakes and accelerates uniformly in the opposite direction. The car stops in 5 s. Another driver going at 3 km h-1 in another car applies his brakes slowly and stops in 10 s. On the same graph paper, plot the speed versus time graphs for the two cars. Which of the two cars travelled farther after the brakes were applied?
Fig 8.11 shows the distance-time graph of three objects A,B and C. Study the graph and answer the following questions:
Fig. 8.11
(a) Which of the three is travelling the fastest?
(b) Are all three ever at the same point on the road?
(c) How far has C travelled when B passes A?
(d) How far has B travelled by the time it passes C?
Two objects, each of mass 1.5 kg, are moving in the same straight line but in opposite directions. The velocity of each object is 2.5 m s-1 before the collision during which they stick together. What will be the velocity of the combined object after collision?
Soni says that the acceleration in an object could be zero even when several forces are acting on it. Do you agree with her? Why?
Two objects of masses 100 g and 200 g are moving along the same line and direction with velocities of 2 m s-1 and 1 m s-1, respectively. They collide and after the collision, the first object moves at a velocity of 1.67 m s-1. Determine the velocity of the second object.
How do poriferan animals differ from coelenterate animals?
The speed-time graph for a car is shown is Fig. 8.12.
Fig. 8.12
(a) Find how far does the car travel in the first 4 seconds. Shade the area on the graph that represents the distance travelled by the car during the period.
(b) Which part of the graph represents uniform motion of the car?
How are sol, solution and suspension different from each other?
Explain how the human ear works.
A submarine emits a sonar pulse, which returns from an underwater cliff in 1.02 s. If the speed of sound in salt water is 1531 m/s, how far away is the cliff?
What are the differences between broilers and layers and in their management?
Write the chemical formulae of the following.
(a) Magnesium chloride
(b) Calcium oxide
(c) Copper nitrate
(d) Aluminium chloride
(e) Calcium carbonate.
What type of mixtures are separated by the technique of crystallisation?
A driver of a car travelling at 52 km h-1 applies the brakes and accelerates uniformly in the opposite direction. The car stops in 5 s. Another driver going at 3 km h-1 in another car applies his brakes slowly and stops in 10 s. On the same graph paper, plot the speed versus time graphs for the two cars. Which of the two cars travelled farther after the brakes were applied?
Why are the ceilings of concert halls curved?
What is the specific function of the cardiac muscle?
A motorcar of mass 1200 kg is moving along a straight line with a uniform velocity of 90 km/h. Its velocity is slowed down to 18 km/h in 4 s by an unbalanced external force. Calculate the acceleration and change in momentum. Also calculate the magnitude of the force required.
