Question 2:
Clarify the differences
A. Distance and displacement
Distance
Displacement
It is defined as the length of the actual path travelled by an object in motion.
It is defined as the shortest distance between the starting and finishing points.
It is a scalar quantity.
It is a vector quantity.
The values of distance are always
positive.The values of displacement can be positive, negative or zero.
B. Uniform and non-uniform motion.
Uniform motion
Non-uniform motion
When an object covers equal distance in equal time interval, it is said to be in uniform motion.
When an object covers unequal distance in equal time interval, it is said to be in non-uniform motion.
The distance-time graph obtained in case of uniform motion is a straight line graph.
The distance-time graph obtained in case of nonuniform motion can be of any shape depending on how the acceleration changes with time.
eg: A car running on a straight road without any change in its speed.
eg: A car running on a road with different speeds in different interval of time.

Question 4:
Complete the sentences and explain them.
(**This type of questions not included in latest question paper pattern)
The minimum distance between the start and finish points of the motion of an object is called the ........... of the object.
The minimum distance between the start and finish points of the motion of an object is called the displacement of the object.
(Answer of question is self explanatory therefore there is no question of explanation)
2. Deceleration is -------- acceleration.
Deceleration is negative acceleration.
When a body is decelerating, it means its speed is decreasing speed. An acceleration with a negative also shows that the speed of the body is decreasing.
3. When an object is in uniform circular motion, its ......... changes at every point.
When an object is in uniform circular motion, its velocity changes at every point.
4. During collision ........... remains constant.
During collision total momentum remains constant.
Momentum of the system before collision = Momentum of the system after collision
5. The working of a rocket depends on Newton’s ........ law of motion.
The working of a rocket depends on Newton’s third law of motion.
Question 5:
Give scientific reasons.
1. When an object falls freely to the ground, its acceleration is uniform.
When an object falls freely to the ground, it is under the effect of a constant force known as force of gravity. No other forces act on it. This force of gravity is uniform near earth’s surface. Hence by Newton's second law of motion, we can say that this constant force of gravity accelerates the freely falling object uniformly.
2. Even though the magnitudes of action force and reaction force are equal and their directions are opposite, their effects do not get cancelled.
When two bodies interact, the action and reaction forces come into action. Even though their magnitude are same and their direction are opposite, their effects do not get cancelled because these action and reaction forces act on different bodies.
3. It is easier to stop a tennis ball as compared to a cricket ball, when both are travelling with the same velocity.
Momentum of a body is the product of its mass and velocity and the rate of change of momentum of a body is equal to the force applied i.e. In the given information, both the balls move with same velocity, We know force is directly proportional to mass (F∝m) therefore force required to stop the ball will be directly proportional to the mass of the ball. Also cricket ball is harder than tennis ball therefore it is hard to stop the cricket ball than tennis ball.
F=m(v−u)t
As the mass of cricket ball is greater than the tennis ball, its momentum will be more than the tennis ball. Thus, greater force will be required to stop the cricket ball as compared to that of tennis ball.
4. The velocity of an object at rest is considered to be uniform.
Velocity of an object is said to be uniform when its speed and direction does not change. The velocity of an object at rest is zero all the time and does not even change the direction. Hence, the velocity of an object at rest is considered to be uniform.
Question 6:
Take 5 examples from your surroundings and give explanation based on Newtons laws of motion.
Question 7:
Solve the following examples.
1) An object moves 18 m in the first 3 s, 22 m in the next 3 s and 14 m in the last 3 s. What is its average speed?
s1=18m, s2= 22m, s3=22m t1=3s, t2=3s t3=3s, Average speed=? Average speed=\(\frac{\text{Total distance}}{\text{Total time}}\) = \(\frac{s_1+s_2+s_3}{t_1+t_2+t_3}\) = \(\frac{18m+22m+14m}{3s+3s+3s}\) = \(\frac{54m}{9s}\) = 6 m/s ∴ Average speed= 6 m/s
2) An object of mass 16 kg is moving with an acceleration of 3 m/s2. Calculate the applied force. If the same force is applied on an object of mass 24 kg, how much will be the acceleration?
(i) m1 = 16 kg, a1 = 3 m/s2
F = m1 × a1
F = 16 × 3 = 48 N
(ii) Now, F = 48 N, m2 =24 kg
F = m2 × a2
48 = 24 × a2
a2 = 2 m/s2
3) A bullet having a mass of 10 g and moving with a speed of 1.5 m/s, penetrates a thick wooden plank of mass 90 g. The plank was initially at rest. The bullet gets embedded in the plank and both move together. Determine their velocity. Given, Mass of bullet, m1 = 10 g Initial speed of bullet, u1 = 1.5 m/s Mass of plank, m2 = 90 g Initial speed of plank, u2 = 0 From law of conservation of momentum, m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2 Since, the bullet gets embedded in the plank and both move with the same speed, so v1 = v2 = v m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 + m2)v 10 ×1.5 + 90 × 0 = (10 + 90)v 15 = 100v ⇒v = 0.15 m/s ∴ velocity = 0.15 m/s
So, we can rewrite the equation as
4) A person swims 100 m in the first 40 s, 80 m in the next 40 s and 45 m in the last 20 s. What is the average speed?
Given: s1=100m, s2= 80m, s3=45m t1=40s, t2=40s t3=20s, Average speed=? Average speed = \(\frac{\text{Average distance}}{\text{Average time}}\) = \(\frac{s_1+s_2+s_3}{t_1+t_2+t_3}\) = \(\frac{100m+80m+45m}{ 40s+40s+20s}\) =\(\frac{225m}{100s}\) Average speed = 2.25 m/s
