5 Section A 1. What does the direction of thumb indicate in the right-hand thumb rule? The direction of thumb indicates the direction of flow of current through a straight conductor in right-hand thumb rule. 2. On what basis is a chemical equation balanced? Chemical equations are balanced on the basic of law of conservation of mass. According to which total mass of reactants is equal to the total mass of products during any chemical change. 3. Name the plant hormones responsible for elongation of cells. Sol: Auxin and cytokinin are responsible for elongation of cells. 4. For making cake, baking powder is taken. If at home your mother uses baking soda instead of baking powder in cake, (a) how will it affect the taste of the cake and why? (b) how can baking soda be converted into baking powder? (a) The cake will taste bitter as tartaric acid has not been added to baking soda (i.e. Baking powder was not used) to neutralize the effect of the mild basic salt i.e. baking powder. (b) Baking Soda can be converted into baking powder by adding tartaric acid to it. 5. In one of the industrial processes used for manufacture of sodium hydroxide, a gas X is formed as by product. The gas X reacts with dry slaked lime to give a compound Y which is used as a bleaching agent in chemical industry. Identify X and Y. The gas X is Cl2 (chlorine gas).

Which property of solder makes it suitable for welding electrical wires? S.C.O (TF)326, Sector 40 D, Chd. Phone: ,

6 Solder alloy is formed by a homogeneous mixture of 50% lead (Pb) and 50% Tin (Sn). Solder has a low melting point and high resistivity. Solder is used for welding electric wires so as to prevent them from short circuiting. 7. A battery of 9 V is connected in series with resistors of 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and 12 resistors. How much current would flow through the 12 resistor? Potential different across terminals of battery (v) = qv Total resistance, Rs = ( ) = 13.4 As, in series combination current (I) is constant through all resistors, current through 12 resistance = current through the circuit, I = = = = 0.67 A V R Therefore correct through 12 resistor is 0.67 A as current in series combination is same. 8. A student constructed a model of box type solar cooker. He used a transparent plastic sheet to cover the open face of the box. He found that this cooker does not function well. What could be the possible drawbacks in his model? List any four drawbacks. He may not have used : (i) black painted aluminium sheet (ii) black cooking vessel to absorb heat radiation. (iii) glass sheet, which prevents the escape of heat radiation from the box instead of plastic sheet. (iv) mirror plate which reflects the sunlight to fall on the glass sheet. 9. A copper wire has a diameter of 0.5 mm and a resistivity of ohm m. What will be the S.C.O (TF)326, Sector 40 D, Chd. Phone: ,

7 length of this wire to make its resistance 10 ohm? How much does its resistance change if the diameter is doubled? R 10 d = 0.5 mm r = 0.25 mm = = m length, l =? RA l P = = = = = = = = 6 = m How do the guard cells regulate opening and closing of stomatal pores? Guard cells regulate the opening & closing of stomatal pores. When water enters into guard S.C.O (TF)326, Sector 40 D, Chd. Phone: ,

8 cell, due to difference in water concentration gradient, they swell up and stomatal pores open. This is because inner linning of guard cells is thicker and outer membrane is thin due to which they buldge outwards. When this water moves out of guard cells, they shrink and get flattened leading to closing of stomatal pore. 11. "All plants give out oxygen during day and carbon dioxide during night". Do you agree with this statement? Give reason. Yes this time, as during the day sunlight being present, they have to make food and for this they give out oxygen and take in CO2 (Carbon dioxide) but during night they don t perform photosynthesis and hence release CO2 and take in O2 (oxygen for respiration). Although respiration takes place during the day also but the amount of O2 released during photosynthesis is much more than O2 consumed in the process of respiration. 12. What happens at the synapse between two neurons? At the synapse between two neurons, information is transferred from the axon endings of one neuron to the dendrites of next neuron in the form of chemical impulse. In short, transfer of information between two neurons takes place at the synapse. 13. Explain how does current flow in a conductor. A conductor contains a large number of free electrons which are always in random motion. When a potential random motion. When a potential difference is maintained across such a conductor using a battery the electrons drift towards the positive potential of the battery and will now have a fixed direction. This causes an electric current. All the free electrons are moving in the same direction with the same speed. 14. Write one equation each for decomposition reactions where energy is supplied in the form of heat, light or electricity.

Compare the nervous and hormonal systems for control and coordination in human beings. Sol: Nervous Control Hormonal Control 1. It gives fast response. 1. Its response is slow 2. Information travels in the form of chemical and electrical waves. 3. It is has no effect on growth of body. 2. Information travels in the form of chemicals. 3. It affects the growth of the body. 4. Its effects are short term. 4. Its effects may remain for long time period. 16. What is electrical resistivity? In a series, electrical circuit comprising a resistor made up of a metallic wire, the ammeter reads 5 A. The reading of the ammeter decreases to half when the length of the wire is doubled. Why? Electrical resistivity is the nature of a material to offer resistance to the flow of current of unit length and unit area of cross-section. Its symbol is. (from R = l A ) i.e. R l whereas R 1 l 1 l I (from v R I ) Hence when length of wire is doubled, the reading of ammeter decreases to half. 17. What is the role of fuse, used in series with any electrical appliance? Why should a fuse with S.C.O (TF)326, Sector 40 D, Chd. Phone: ,

10 defined rating not be replaced by one with a larger rating? A fuse is having low melting point and high resistivity and allow of a limited maximum current that can flow through it. When the current exceeds the maximum rated value, the fuse melts and break the circuit, which prevents short-circuiting. A fuse with defined rating should not be replaced by one with a larger rating, because the one with larger rating would allow a larger amount of current to flow through it and will not break the circuit even if short-circuiting is about to occur. Therefore, it can lead to short-circuiting and hence, is unsafe to use. 18. Leaves of a healthy potted plant were coated with vaseline. Will this plant remain healthy for long? Give reasons for your answer. If leaves of a healthy potted plant were coated with Vaseline, it would not remain healthy for long. The plants photosynthesize and respire by taking carbon dioxide and oxygen through air, respectively, and this is done by the stomatal pores present in their leaves. By coating with Vaseline, the leaves would no longer be in contact with air and will not be able to take CO2 and O2. Hence, they plant will die soon as they would not be able to prepare food for themselves through photosynthesis and cannot respire too. 19. What are reflex actions? Give two examples. Explain a reflex arc. Sudden, unconscious, involuntary response to a stimulus is called reflex actions. e.g., Knee jerk reflex, sneezing, coughing, etc. During any reflex action, a message from receptors is relayed to sensory nerves to the spinal cord, which sends information for response via motor nerves to effectors (which may either be muscles or glands). This pathway is called as reflex arc. Reflex arc is the path way through which the information travels to the spinal chord and then the response is made. S.C.O (TF)326, Sector 40 D, Chd. Phone: ,

(c) Describe the activity that shows a current carrying conductor experiences a force perpendicular to its length and the external magnetic field. How does Fleming's left-hand rule Or help us to find the direction of the force acting on the current carrying conductor? Sol: S.C.O (TF)326, Sector 40 D, Chd. Phone: ,

13 By changing current in the coil A, a current will be induced in the coil B which is placed close to A. This is due to the reason that magnetic filed lines linked with A also get linked with B due to its being close to A. When the current in A changes, magnetic field lines linked with A change. Obviously, magnetic filed lines linked with B also change. This changes the flux linked with B. As a result of this, current is induced in the coil B. (b) (i) Land thumb rule (ii) Fleming left hand rule. (iii) Fleming right hand rule. Or (a) According to Fleming s left hand rule, let the thumb, forefinger and central finger of the left hand be stretched so that they are mutually perpendicular to one another. If the forefinger points in the direction of the magnetic field and the central finger points in the direction of a current, the thumb gives the direction of the force action on direction of the force acting on the conductor. (b) (i) When bar magnet is pushed into the coil due to electromagnetic induction an induced current is produced. The galvanometer will show deflection. (ii) Same as above but deflection will be in opposite direction. (iii) No deflection. 22.

For eg. When me are afraid or scared of a person and that person suddenly comes in front of us, we start running. (ii) Secretion of growth hormones should be specified in human beings as if it is secreted in extensive amount, it may result in gigantism and it released quite less, then it may result in dwarfism. Therefore it should be secreted in a normal amount. (iii) Some patients of diabetes are given injections of insulin as during diabetes a comparatively less amount of insulin is secreted which doesn t check the sugar level in our body. So, in order to maintain the sugar level in our body, some patients are given injections of insulin. (b) It intake of iodine in our diet is low, less amount of thysoseinc will be produced by the thyroid gland which may finally lead to a disease named goiter due to deficiency of iodine.
