Q31. A racing car has a uniform acceleration of 4 metre/sec². What distance will it cover in 10 sec. after start ?
Ans. Acceleration (a) = 4 m/sec²
Time period (t) = 10 sec
The car has uniform acceleration. This means that initially, it was in rest. Thus,
Initial velocity (u) = 0
As per the second equation of motion,
s = ut + ½at²
s = 0×10 + ½×4×10²
s = 200 metres
Therefore, the car will cover a distance of 200m in 10sec after start.
Q32. Write two differences between Mixture and Compound.
Ans. Mixtures– Mixtures are impure substances. They are made up of two or more substances mixed physically. The constituents of a mixture are present in varying ratios. Mixtures do not have fixed properties. Their properties depend on the nature of their components and the ratios in which they are combined.
Compounds– Compounds are pure substances. They are made up of two or more elements combined chemically. The constituents of a compound are present in a fixed ratio. Compounds have fixed properties. For example, a particular compound will have fixed temperatures at which it melts and boils.
Q33. State any two conditions essential for good health.
Ans. Nutritious food, Clean environment and Personal hygiene.
Q34. (i) When a carpet is beaten with a stick, dust comes out of it. Explain.
Ans. According to Newton’s first law of motion, the dust particles stay in a state of rest, while the carpet moves. Hence, the dust particle comes out of the carpet due to inertia.
(ii) Write the Newton’s Third Law of Motion.
Ans. Newton’s Third Law of Motion states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. If object A exerts a force on object B, object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A.

Q36. Make a comparison and write down ways in which ‘plant cells’ are different from ‘animal cells’.
Ans. Plant Cell– They are larger in size. Cell wall is present. Lysosomes are absent or very few in number. Plastids are present. Subunits of Golgi bodies known as dictyosomes are present. Vacuoles are larger in size.
Animal Cell– They are smaller in size. Cell wall is absent. Lysosomes are larger in number. Plastids are absent. Prominent Golgi bodies are present. Vacuoles are smaller in size.
Q37. (i) A bulb consumes 500 J of electrical energy in 10 sec. What is its power ?
Ans. Energy (E) = 500 J
Time (t) = 10 sec
Power (P) = Energy(E)÷Time(t)
P = E/t = 500/10 = 50 watts
(ii) What is the kinetic energy of an object ? Write an expression and unit for the kinetic energy of an object.
Ans. The Kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object because of its motion.
K.E = ½mv² where K.E is Kinetic energy, m is the mass of the body, and v is the Velocity of the body.
SI unit of Kinetic Energy is Joule.
OR
(i) An object of mass 15 kg is moving with a uniform velocity of 4 m/sec. What is the kinetic energy possessed by the object ?
Ans. Mass (m) = 15 kg
Velocity (v) = 4 m/sec
Kinetic energy, K.E = ½mv² = ½ × 15 × 4² = 120 J
(ii) A battery lights a bulb. Describe the energy changes involved in the process.
Ans. When a bulb is connected to a battery, then the chemical energy of the battery is transferred into electrical energy. When the bulb receives this electrical energy, then it converts it into light and heat energy.
(iii) Give an example of potential energy.
Ans. Book on table and Water that is behind a dam.
Q38. Complete the following table :
Ans.
(i) Number of Protons = 16
Number of Neutrons = 16
(ii) Atomic number = Number of Protons = 12
Number of Protons = Number of Electrons = 12
(iii) Mass number = Number of Protons+ Number of Electrons= 11 + 12 = 23
Number of Protons = Number of Electrons = 11
(iv) Number of Protons = Atomic number = 17
Mass number = Number of Protons + Number of Electrons = 17 + 18 = 35
(v) Atomic number = Number of Protons = 13
Number of Electrons = Mass number – Number of Protons = 27 – 13 = 14
39. (i) Draw a labeled diagram of a Neuron.
Ans.

OR
Diagrammatically show the difference between the three types of Muscle Fibres.
Ans.
Cardiac muscle– Cardiac muscles are the muscle tissue found in the heart, that perform and bring about coordinated contractions, which enable the heart to pump blood throughout the body and is involuntary in action.
Smooth muscle– Smooth muscle is the muscle tissue that is utilized by different systems for the application of pressure to organs and vessels and is involuntary in action.
