Explain the working and application of a sonar.

Explain how sound is produced by your school bell.

Explain how defects in a metal block can be detected using ultrasound.

Distinguish between loudness and intensity of sound.

A sound wave travels at a speed of 339 m s^-1. If its wavelength is 1.5 cm, what is the frequency of the wave? Will it be audible?

Which characteristic of the sound helps you to identify your friend by his voice while sitting with others in a dark room?

A sonar device on a submarine sends out a signal and receives an echo 5 s later. Calculate the speed of sound in water if the distance of the object from the submarine is 3625 m.

Explain how the human ear works.

How is ultrasound used for cleaning?

Which wave property determines
(a) loudness,    (b) pitch?

Which of the following has more inertia: (a) a rubber ball and a stone of the same size? (b) a bicycle and a train? (c) a five-rupees coin and a one-rupee coin?

State the universal law of gravitation.

Which of the following are matter?

Chair, air, love, smell, hate, almonds, thought, cold, cold-drink, smell of perfume.

A force of 7 N acts on an object. The displacement is, say 8 m, in the direction of the force (Fig. 11.3). Let us take it that the force acts on the object through the displacement. What is the work done in this case?

What is meant by a pure substance?

In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.

sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water

What are canal rays?

State any two conditions essential for good health.

How is our atmosphere different from the atmospheres on Venus and Mars?

Who discovered cells, and how?

A ball thrown up vertically returns to the thrower after 6 s. Find
(a) the velocity with which it was thrown up,
(b) the maximum height it reaches, and
(c) its position after 4 s.

Certain force acting on a 20 kg mass changes its velocity from 5 m s^-1 to 2 m s^-1. Calculate the work done by the force.

An object has moved through a distance. Can it have zero displacement? If yes, support your answer with an example.

What are the different states in which water is found during the water cycle?

A bullet of mass 10 g travelling horizontally with a velocity of 150 m s^-1 strikes a stationary wooden block and comes to rest in 0.03 s. Calculate the distance of penetration of the bullet into the block. Also calculate the magnitude of the force exerted by the wooden block on the bullet.

Define the term “tissue”.
