Give three features of cardiac muscles.

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?

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 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.

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?

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?

How do poriferan animals differ from coelenterate animals?

Why is the weight of an object on the moon 1/6th its weight on the earth?

Convert into mole.

(a) 12 g of oxygen gas
(b) 20 g of water
(c) 22 g of carbon dioxide.

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.

Name the technique to separate

(i) butter from curd,
(ii) salt from sea-water,
(iii) camphor from salt.

Why is the atmosphere essential for life?

According to the third law of motion when we push on an object, the object pushes back on us with an equal and opposite force. If the object is a massive truck parked along the roadside, it will probably not move. A student justifies this by answering that the two opposite and equal forces cancel each other. Comment on this logic and explain why the truck does not move.

Why should preventive measures and biological control methods be preferred for protecting crops?

An electric heater is rated 1500 W. How much energy does it use in 10 hours?

Convert the following temperatures to the Celsius scale.

(a) 300 K                 (b) 573 K.

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

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.

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.

List the points of differences between homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures.

An automobile vehicle has a mass of 1500 kg. What must be the force between the vehicle and road if the vehicle is to be stopped with a negative acceleration of 1.7 m s^-2?
