State the universal law of gravitation.

Which of the following are matter?

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?

How does the sound produced by a vibrating object in a medium reach your ear?

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?

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

Why are sound waves called mechanical waves?

The kinetic energy of an object of mass, m moving with a velocity of 5 m s^-1 is 25 J. What will be its kinetic energy when its velocity is doubled? What will be its kinetic energy when its velocity is increased three times?

A person has a hearing range from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. What are the typical wavelengths of sound waves in air corresponding to these two frequencies? Take the speed of sound in air as 344 m s^-1.

If action is always equal to the reaction, explain how a horse can pull a cart.

Why are we normally advised to take bland and nourishing food when we are sick?

The following is the distance-time table of an object in motion:

             7                                 343
(a) What conclusion can you draw about the acceleration? Is it constant, increasing, decreasing, or zero?
(b) What do you infer about the forces acting on the object?

A bus starting from rest moves with a uniform acceleration of 0.1 m s^-2 for 2 minutes. Find (a) the speed acquired, (b) the distance travelled.

What are the differences between the mass of an object and its weight?

Define 1 J of work.

Why will a sheet of paper fall slower than one that is crumpled into a ball?
