Two friends, Bina and Amita, always walked home from school together past an exclusive restaurant, often
visited by foreign tourists.
Ore day,just as they were walking past the restaurant,a well-dressedwoman tourist bustled out of the main
Errane. Shemade for a taxi waiting at the curb, and in her haste,three{ 1,000notesfluttered from her handbag
to t- footpath besideAmita's feet.Amita bent to pick up the notesto retum them to the womary but before she

Way back in 1870,when the technologyto print colouredpictureswas developed,tobaccocompaniesbegan
using it to promote their cigarettes.
Famouspeople,including athletesand movie stars,were pictured on cardsthat were included in eachcigarette
packet.
For years, cigaretteswere advertised in magazines,newspapersand cinemas.Theseadvertisementsused
many strategiesto promote positive attitudes towards smoking. Doctors, dentists,famous people and healthy
looking teenagershaving fun with friends were shown in cigaretteadvertisements.There wasn't a dirty
ashtray in sight!
It isn't a surprise,therefore,that addiction to cigarettesamong teenagersand adults increasedgreatly.Not only
did addiction increase,but smoking-relateddeathsalso increased.

Intemational groups claim that tobaccois a legal consrrmerproduct that.kills. This makes it a perplexing product.
Recently,some countries introduced laws to force cigarette makers to place warnings against smoking on
every packet of cigarettes.The warnings show some of the consequencesof smoking, such as diseasedlungs
and mouth cancers,but many people continue to srnoke.

Everything on this planet is made up of atoms. Each atom contains
a positively charged centre, or nucleu,
which is surrounded by negatively charged electrons. For most objects,
the number of positive chargesis
equal to the number of negative chargesand becausethey canceleach
other ouf the object ends up with no
overall electric charge.However, it is possible for objectsto gain an overall
negative or positive charge.
When objectsmade of different materials are rubbed together, electrons
may jump from one object to the
other' objects becomepositively charged if they lose electronsand negatively
charged if they gain electrons.
You can predict which way the charges will jump by referring to
a triboelectric ctrart such as the one
shown here.

This ilst of common materials'is arranged in order of how likely they are to lose electrons.In general,when
two maErials are rubbed together, the material that is higher on the list will lose electrons to the materials
li*d bdon' it. For example,if a perspexrod is rubbed with a piece of wool, the wool will lose electronsto the
PersPsr.so the wool will end up with an overall positive charge and the perspex will end up negatively
dlT-lli The further apart the materials are on the list, the more easily the electronsare transferred between
da riidr meansthat you dont have to rub them together very long to get them to chargeup). If you were
to rrfr dass n'ith rabbit's tur, far fewer electronswill move to the glassthan if you were to rub the rabbit fur
an crrrn;ng like ebonite.

Objectsthat have opposite electric chargesmove towards eachother while objectsthat have the sameelectric
charge push each other away.
A charged object and uncharged object will move toward each other.
The diagrams below show what happenswhen different balloons are hung on strings near eaehother or near
a chargedobject..

Lensesare obiectsmade of transparentmaterialssuch as glassor clear plastic that has curved surfaces.Thereare
two rnain ldnds of krses. Diverging lenses are thicker at their edges than in their centres and they make light
rays Passingttmugh them spread out. Converging lensm are thicker in the middle than at their edgesand were
the earliestkird of lensmade.The earliestexamplesof thesedatebacktwo thousandyears.They havebeenusedin
spectadesto hdP people with poor vision seebetter since at least the tenth century.
Thesedays,aswell asbeing used in spectacles,converging lensesare used in many other devices.Magnifying
glasses,microscopesand some types of telescopesuse converging lensesto make small things appear much
larger or to make disturt objectsappear much closer.Converging lensesmagnify by bending the rays of light
that pa<sthrcuth trcsr to meet at a point. This point is called the focus. The thicker that a converging lens is
in its c€ritre,the rue it magnifies and the closer the focus is to the lens.

The magnifying power of a single converging lens such asthat used in a cameraor magnifying glassis equal to
the lengthof the enlargedimage divided by the length of the original object.For example,if aZcm long beetle
aPPearsto be 6 cm long when viewed through a magnifying glass,the glass' magnifying power is 3 (written as
"3x")' Similarly,a 10x lens would make an objectlook 10 times longer.It will also look 10 times wider.
