The second equation of motion. Suppose a body starts with initial velocity u and due to uniform acceleration a, its final velocity becomes v after t. Then
Average velocity = \(\frac { Intial\quad velocity+Final\quad velocity }{ 2 } =\frac { u+v }{ 2 } \)
So, the distance covered by the body in time t is
s = Average velocity x Time
=\(\frac { u+v }{ 2 } \) x t=\(=\frac { u+(u+at) }{ 2 } Xt\) \([\therefore v=u+at]\)
\(=\frac { 2ut+at^{ 2 } }{ 2 } \)
or \(s=ut+\frac { 1 }{ 2 } at^{ 2 }\) -

The practice of naming is one of the greatest inventions of man. Millions of animals and plants are named differently in different languages in different parts of the world. It means the names used for one organism differs from place to place. For example, Argemone a common weed has as many as ten to twele Hindi names alone. Some call it 'Firangi Dhatura', Sial Kanta', 'Pila Dhatura', 'Bharband', 'Kandhari', 'Satya nasi buti', 'Katela', 'Jahriber', 'Ugar Kanta' etc. Same thing is applicable to animals and other plants. Sometimes the common names are misleading. Same name may be used for different organisms in different parts.
To avoid this confusion Linnaeus gave a system in which an organism is given a name with two components-the first part is the generic name and the second part is the specific name. Thus the scientific name of common cat is Felis domestica, and that of tiger is Felis tigris. This system of giving a name with two components to an organism is called 'Binomial system of nomenclature'. The scientific names thus given to the organism are recognized all over the world. Hence, confusion is avoided on this aspect. -
Non-uniform motion .If an object covers unequal distances in equal intervals of time,it is said to be in non-uniform motion. Most of the motions seen in our daily life are non-uniform. For example,if we drop a ball from the roof of a building we will note that the ball covers 4.9 m in the 1st second 14.7 m in the 2nd second 24.5 m in the 3rd second , and so on That is the ball covers increasingly larger distances in successive seconds as it falls down. Thus, the motion of a freely falling body is non-uniform
Other examples of non-uniform motion:
(i) A stone dropped from the top of a building
(ii) A ball thrown vertically upwards
(iii) The motion of a train as it leaves the station
(iv) The motion of a bus as it approaches a bus-stop
(v) The motion of a ball rolling down an inclined plane. -
Newton's first law of motion. According to this law, a body at rest or in uniform motion will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless an unbalanced force acts upon it. This law consists of three parts:
(i) First part, says that a body at rest continues in its state of rest. For example, a person standing in a bus falls backward when the bus suddenly starts moving forward. When the bus moves, the lower part of his body begins to move along with the bus while the upper part of his body continues to remain at rest due to inertia. That is why a person falls backward when the bus starts.
(ii) Second part, says that a body uniform motion continues moving in straight line path will a uniform speed. for example, when a moving bus suddenly stops, a person sittng in it falls forward. As the bus stops, the lower part of his body comes to rest along with the bus while upper part of his body continues to remain in motion due to inertia and so he fall forward.
(iii) Third part, says that a body moving with a uniform speed in a straight line cannot change itself its direction of motion. For example, when a bus takes a sharp turn, a person sitting in the bus gets a force acting away from the center of the curved path due to his tendency to move in the original direction. He has to hold on a support to prevent himself from swaying away in the turning bus. -
Difference between mass and weight:
Mass Weight 1. Mass is the quantity of matter contained in a body and is the measure of its inertia. Weight of a body is the force which a body is attracted towards the centre of the earth. 2. Its value remains constant at all places. Its value (W=mg) changes from place to place due to the change in the value of acceleration due to gravity 'g'. 3. It is a scalar quantity. It is a vector quantity. 4. It is measured by a pan balance. It is measured by a spring balance. 5. Mass of a body is never zero. Weight of a body is zero at the centre of the earth because there 'g' becomes zero. 6. Its unit is kg Its unit is Newton or kg-wt. -
No the bundle of hay remains stationary i.e., displacement is zero.So, the work done is also zero.
-
Time period. The time taken by an oscillating body to complete one oscillation is called its time period. It is denoted by T. Its SI unit is second (s).
Frequency. The number of oscillations or vibrations completed by an oscillating body in one second is called its frequency. It is denoted by v (Greek letter nu).
SI unit of frequency=per second (s-1) = cycles per second (cps) = hertz (Hz).
Relation between time period and frequency:
Let T=time period of an oscillating body. Then number of oscillations completed in T second = 1
Number of oscillations completed in 1 second =\(\frac { 1 }{ T } \)
But number of oscillations completed in 1 second = frequency (v)
∴ \(v=\frac { 1 }{ T } \)
Hence frequency is equal to the reciprocal of time period. -
S.No Cause Remedy (a) Hepatitis is caused by virus (i) Hepatitis A and B vaccination
(ii) Avoid eating stale food(b) AIDS is caused by HIV (i) Avoid any type of infection.
(ii) Now anti-viral drugs that keep HIV infection under control are avilable.(c) malaria is caused by Plasmodium spread by the bite of female Anopheles mosquito (i) Avoid breeding of mosquitos in stagnent water ditches, ponds
(ii) Consult doctor for treatment.
(iii) Use mosquito repellents. -
It is very necessary to replenish forests for the following reasons:
(i) Rainfall: Trees give out enormous amount of water during transpiration. This water vapour helps in the formation of rain clouds. If trees are destroyed and not replenished the rainfall in the area will reduce. This may lead to less number of trees to grow.
(ii) Soil erosion: If trees are cut at a large rate the soil becomes barren. The top soil which is rich in organic matter will be washed away by water or carried away by wind. Thus reduction in rainfall and soil erosion may lead to the formation of desert.
(iii) Carbon dioxide-oxygen balance: Forests have very large number of trees. They give out \({ O }_{ 2 }\) and take in \({ CO }_{ 2 }\) in day time by the process of photosynthesis. Thus they help in maintaining carbon dioxide-oxygen balance in the atmosphere. -
Crop Rotation: The growing of different crops on the same field or a piece of land in a pre-planned succession is called crop rotation.
Selection of crops for crop rotation: Selection of crops depends on the -
(i) Moisture conditions i.e., availability water through rain or irrigation.
(ii) Length of rainy season.
(iii) Type of soil and nutrient status.
(iv) Availability of inputs-fertilisers, pesticides, manpower and machine power.
(v) Duration of crop-short or long.
(vi) Risk involved i.e., marketing and processing facilities.
For example, rabi crops of mustard, chickpea, linseed, barley, sunflower, and wheat are grown on conserved moisture.
In areas with assured soil moisture throughout the year, depending other inputs, rice, wheat, sugarcane, potato, and barseem are some of the major components of crop rotation.
Farmers near cities and towns prefer to grow vegetables and flowers for higher income. -

Mass of silver (Ag) ornament = mg
Mass of gold used for polishing = \(\frac{1}{100}\times\) mg = 0.01 mg
Atomic mass of Ag = 108 u
\(\therefore\) 1 mole of Ag = 108 g = 6.022 x 1023 atoms
Thus, 108 g of Ag have atoms = 6.022 x 1023
\(\therefore\) mg of Ag have atoms = \(\frac{6.022\times 10^{23}}{108}\)
Similarly, atomic mass of gold (Au) = 197 u
1 mole of Au = 197 g = 6.022 x 1023 atoms
Thus, 197 g of Au have atoms = 6.022 x 1023
\(\therefore\) 0.01 mg of Au will have atoms = \(\frac{6.022\times 10^{23}\times 0.01\ m}{197}\)
\(\therefore\) Ratio of the number of atoms of gold and silver = \(\frac{6.022\times 10^{23}}{197}\times 0.01\ m; \frac{6.022\times 10^{23}}{108}m\)
= \(\frac{1}{19700}:\frac{1}{108}\)
= 108: 19700 -
(i) 1 Mole of Carbon atom = 6.022 x 1023 atoms
6.022 x 1023 atoms of carbon weigh = 12 g
1 atom of carbon weighs = \(\frac { 12 }{ 6.022\times { 10 }^{ 23 } } \\ \)
= 1.99 x 10-23
(ii) (a) n = 0.5 mol; M = 14 x 2 = 28 g; m = ?
m = n x M = 0.5 x 28 = 14.0 g
(b) n = 0.2 mol; M = 16 g; m = ?
m = n x M = 0.2 x 16 = 3.2 g
(c) n = 4 mol; M = 27 g; m = ?
m = n x M = 4 x 27 = 108 g -
(i) Lysosomes are membrane-bound sacs filled with digestive enzymes.These enzymes are made by rough endoplasmic reticulum.
(ii) Lysosomes are a kind of waste disposal system of the cell.
(iii) During the disturbance in cellular metabolism, e.g. when a cell gets damaged, lysosomes present in the cell may burst and the enzymes digest the damaged cell. Hence, lysosomes are called as 'suicidal bags' of a cell.
(iv) Lysosomes break up the foreign materials entering into the cell, such as bacteria or food into smal piece -

((t) Formula to find the magnitude of gravitational
Force, \(F=\cfrac { GMm }{ { R }^{ 2 } } \)
where, M = mass of the earth
m = mass of the object
R = radius of the earth
and universal gravitational constant,
G = 6.67 X 10-11 N-m2/kg2
(ii) (a) Let gravitational force be F when the distance between them is R
\(F=\cfrac { GMm }{ { R }^{ 2 } } \)
Now, when the distance reduces to half
\({ F }^{ ' }=\cfrac { GMm }{ \left( \cfrac { R }{ 2 } \right) ^{ 2 } } =\cfrac { 4GMm }{ { R }^{ 2 } } \)
On dividing Eq. (i) by Eq. (ii), we get
\(\cfrac { F }{ { F }^{ ' } } =\cfrac { GMm }{ { R }^{ 2 } } \times \cfrac { { R }^{ 2 } }{ 4GMm } \)
F' = 4F
(b) When the mass becomes 4 times
\(\cfrac { F }{ { F }^{ ' } } =\cfrac { GMm }{ { R }^{ 2 } } \times \cfrac { { R }^{ 2 } }{ 4GMm } \)
\(\Rightarrow\) F' = 4F -
