Q. If the time period of small ripples on water is 0.1sec.and their wave length is 6 cm. Find the speed of the ripple

Ans: Time period of ripple, T = 0.1 s ; Wavelength of the ripple, λ = 6 cm = 0.06 m

Frequency, f = 1/T = 1/0.1 = 10 hz ; Therefore, the speed of the ripple, v = fλ = 10×0.06 = 0.6 m/ s

Q. Why is it easier to swim in sea water than in river water?

Ans: Since, sea water has some salts in it, which results in increase in its density. And we know that buoyant force is directly proportional to density of liquid. As the result the swimmer experience the greater force upwards letting him to swim easily

Q. What are the differences between monocots and dicots?

Ans: Monocotyledonous plant have parallel venation whereas Dicot plant have reticulated venation

Q. Which adoptive feature found in earthworm keeps its skin always moist?

The body wall of earthworm has a moist secretion called mucus that makes the skin slippery and moist

Q. After setting up slinky for experiment to find velocity of pulse, how will you generate pulse :

Ans: By jerking Vertically Upward

Q. Flowers in dicotyledonous plants are generally:

Ans: pentamerous (floral parts in the number of fives).

Q. What is the source of nutrition of larvae of mosquito?

Ans: Larvae of mosquito feed on algae, bacteria and other microorganisms present in their surroundings

Q. Write two main precautions to be taken to read the water level in the graduated cylinder?

Ans: (i) Always note reading of lower meniscus of water level.
(ii) The reading has to be taken at the same level as that of the eye to prevent any parallex error.

Q. A student is performing the experiment 'To determine the density of solid (denser than water), by using spring balance and measuring cylinder'. During the experiment, he observed that a few air bubbles were sticking to the solid when immersed in water. What will the presence of air bubbles lead to?

(a) No change in density. (b) Increase in density. (c) Decrease in density. (d) None of these.

Ans: (c) Decrease in density because presence of air bubbles will increase the volume of displaced water.

Q. You are given solid cubes of Aluminium and Iron, each of side 4 cm and two spring balances. Balance A has a range of 0 to 250 g and a least count of 2.5 g, while balance B has a range of 0 to 1000 g and a least count of 10g. Which balance would be the preferred option for mass measurement of the cubes?

(a) Balance A for both the cubes.                 (b) Balance B for both the cubes.

(c) Balance A for the Aluminium cube and balance B for Iron cube.

(d) Balance A for the iron cube and balance B for aluminium cube.

Ans: (c) Balance A for the Aluminium cube and balance B for Iron cube. [because Density of iron is greater than Aluminium.]

NCERT Activity Chapter 02 Acid Bases and Salt Class 10 Chemistry Activity 2.1 Indicator Acid Base Red litmus No Change Blue Blue Litmus Red No change Phenolphthalein Colourless Pink Methyl Orange Pink   Yellow Indictors are substance which change colour in acidic or basic media. Activity 2.2 There are some substances whose odour changes in in acidic or basic media. These are called olfactory indicators. Like onion vanilla, onion and clove. These changes smell in basic solution. Activity 2.3 Take about 5 mL of dilute sulphuric acid in a test tube and add few pieces of zinc granules to it. => You will observe bubbles of hydrogen gas on the surface of zinc granules. Zn + H2SO4 --> ZnSO4 + H2 => Pass the Hydrogen gas through the soap solution. Bubbles formed in the soap solution as Hydrogen gas it does not get dissolved in it

Class 10 Metal and Non MetalsChapter 03 NCERT Activity Solutions

X Class 10 NCERT Activity Explanation Class 10 Metals and Non Metals Activity 3.1 Page No. 37 Take samples of iron, copper, aluminium and magnesium. Note the appearance of each sample. They have a shining surface. Clean the surface of each sample by rubbing them with sand paper and note their appearance again. They become more shiny. => Freshly cut Metal have shiny surface Activity 3.2 Page No. 37 Take small pieces of iron, copper, aluminium, and magnesium. Try to cut these metals with a sharp knife and note your observations. They are very hard to cut. Hold a piece of sodium metal with a pair of tongs and try to cut it with a knife. Sodium can be cut easily with knife. Hence K and Na are soft metal cut with knife Activity 3.3 Page No. 38 Take pieces of iron, zinc, lead and copper try to strike it four or five times with a hammer.

CBSE I NCERT 10th Numerical Problem solved Reflection and reflection of light

Q. 1. A concave mirror of focal length 20cm is placed 50 cm from a wall. How far from the wall an object be placed to form its real image on the wall?  Solution: V= -50 cm F= -20cm From mirror formula 1/u = 1/f – 1/v = -1/20+ 1/50 = - 3/100  U = - 33.3 cm Therefore, the distance of the object from the wall x =  50 – u X = 50 – 33.3 = 16.7 cm. Q.2. An object is placed at a distance of 40cm from a concave mirror of focal length 15cm. If the object is displaced through a distance of 20 cm towards the mirror, By how much distance is the image displaced? Answer: Here f = - 15 cm, u = - 40 cm Now 1/f = 1/u + 1/v Then 1/v = 1/f – 1/u Or V= uf/u-f =( - 40 x -15)/25 = -24 cm Then object is displaced towards the mirror let u1 be the distance object from the Mirror in its new position. Then u1 = -(40-20) = -20cm If the image is formed at a distance u1 from the mirror then v1 = u1f/u1-f = -20X-15/-20+15 = -60 cm. = - 20 x-15/-20+15 = -60 cm. Therefor
