Question 15:
Shruti went to a hill station with her parents and her elder brother Rushil. One day they were walking through a valley where Shruti and her brother started playing. Shruti was surprised to distinctly hear the same sound twice. She discussed it with her brother. He told her that this phenomenon is called ’echo’.
(a) Define echo. What should be the minimum distance from the source for a distinct echo to be heard
(b) Write the values shown by Rushil?
Answer:
(a) Echo: It is the phenomenon of reflection of sound of a source from an obstacle. Minimum distance – 17.2 m

Question 16:
(a) Give reason for the following :
(i) Why does a desert cooler cool better on a hot dry day ?
(ii) Why do we prefer to wear cotton clothes during summer ?
(b) Write any three differences between evaporation and boiling.
Answer:
(i) The humidity, i.e., the amount of water vapour in air is less on a hot dry day. Lesser the humidity, more is the rate of evaporation. Since the rate of evaporation is more on a hot dry day, a desert cooler cools better.
(ii) We perspire more during summer. Cotton is a good absorber of water. It absorbs sweat and exposes it for easy evaporation. As a result body feels cool and comfortable. So, we should wear cotton clothes during summer.
(b)

Question 17:

(a) A car turning around a curve with uniform speed. A car going uphill.
(b) Motion given to a discus by an athlete before releasing it. Motion of discus when the athlete releases it.
Give reason for your answer.

(iii) An artificial satellite moves around the earth with a velocity of constant magnitude, still its motion is said to be an accelerated motion, why ?
Answer:

(iii) Satellite is moving in a circular orbit with constant magnitude of velocity but its direction of motion is changing continuously, therefore, its motion is accelerated as the velocity changes in direction.

Question 18:
(a) How layers are different from broilers ? Give at least three differences between the two.
(b) What is composite fish culture system ? State one merit and one demerit of such a system.
Answer:
(a)

(b) A combination of five or six species raised in a single fishpond is called composite fish culture. Merit: The fishes raised have different food habits. So, these do not compete with each other for food. This increases fish yield.
Demerit: Many of these fishes breed only during monsoon.

Question 19:
(a) Name the international organization who approves names of elements.
(b) Give an example with explanation to show that the Law of conservation of mass applies to physical changes also.
Answer:
(a) IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry).
(b) Law of conservation of mass states that “mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a – chemical reaction.”
This law applies to physical changes also.
e.g., During interconversion of water into three states of matter there is no change in the mass of water taken although there is change in the three states.
