Number System
The number system or the numeral system is the system of naming or
representing numbers. There are various types of number systems in maths
like binary, decimal, etc.
What is Number ?
Decimal number system has base 10 because it uses ten digits from 0 to 9.
For example, the decimal number 1457 consists of the digit 7 in the units
position, 5 in the tens place, 4 in the hundreds position, and 1 in the thousands
place whose value can be written as
= (1 × 103) + (4 × 102) + (5 × 101) + (7 × 100)
= 1000 + 400 + 50 + 7
= 1457
The Base-2 number system is also known as the Binary number system
wherein, only two binary digits exist, i.e., 0 and 1. The figures described under
this system are known as binary numbers which are the combination of 0 and
1. For example, 110101 is a binary number.
We can convert any system into binary and vice versa.
3
Write (13)10 as a binary number.
Example
Sol:- 2 13
2 6 1
2 3 0
1 1
(13)10 = (1101)2
Sol:- (215)8 = 2 × 82 + 1 × 81 + 5 × 80
= 2 × 64 + 1 × 8 + 5 × 1
= 128 + 8 + 5
= 141
In the hexadecimal system, numbers are written or represented with base 16.
In this system, the numbers are first represented just like in decimal system,
i.e. from 0 to 9. Then, the numbers are represented using the alphabets from A
to F.
Hexadecimal 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F
Decimal 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

Mysteries of Numbers
Mystery of Number 9
It is said to be a significant part of Indian Psyche.
1. The ‘Fruit of the Spirit' comprises nine graces:" love, joy, peace,
patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-
control.
4. The Goddess herself has three expressions: Virgin, mother and crone.
= (4182)10

Now we will convert this decimal number to required octal number by
repetitively dividing by 8.
8 4182 Remainder
8 522 6
8 65 2
8 8 1
8 1 0
0 1
Therefore,
(1056)16 = (10126)8
Sol:- (1001001100)2
= 1 × 29 + 0 × 28 + 0 × 27 + 1 × 26 + 0 × 25 + 0 × 24 + 1 × 23 + 1 × 22 + 0 × 21
+ 0 × 20
= 512 + 64 + 8 + 4
= (588)10

Light-Reflection
3. Make sure the hole is in the middle or just below the middle of the bottle
so the water flows well.
4. Cover the hole with a piece of masking tape so it doesn’t leak
immediately when you add water.
5. Fill it completely to the top and leave the lid off. The pan will catch the
water as it drains out when you remove the tape.
6. Aim the beam of a laser pointer through the bottle at the hole.

vision. It travels in straight line path.
2. If incident light after interacting with a boundary separating two media
comes back into the same medium, this pehnomenon is called reflection.
3. Images can be either real or virtual.
4. Real image is formed by the actual intersection of reflected rays and it can
be obtained on the screen.
5. Virtual image is formed by the apparent meeting of reflected rays from a
mirror, when produced backwards. It cannot be obtained on the screen.
6. Laws of reflection : There are two laws of reflection.
(i) The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal at the point of
incidence all lie in the same plane.
(ii) The angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection i.e., i = r.
7. Spherical mirror : There are two types of spherical mirrors, viz concave
mirror and convex mirror.
Concave mirror : A spherical mirror whose reflecting surface is curved
inwards, facing towards the centre of the sphere.
Convex mirror : A spherical mirror whose reflecting surface is curved
outwards opposite to centre of sphere.
8. Focal length of a mirror : It is the distance between the pole and the focus
of a spherical mirror. It is half of its radius of curvature. It is positive for a
convex mirror and negative for a concave mirror.

The Experiment
+ MIX
The lead iodide is more soluble in warm water than in cold. It dissolves
when heated, reappearing as ‘golden rain’ on cooling.
HEAT
COOL
14
The Explanation
When the two solutions of potassium iodide (Kl) and lead nitrate (Pb(NO3)2)
react, they produce soluble potassium nitrate (KNO3) and insoluble lead
iodide (Pbl2). This is visible as a yellow precipitate in the solution.
The lead iodide produced dissolves in the solution if it is heated, causing the
yellow precipitate to disappear and leaving a colourless solution. If this
solution is allowed to cool slowly, crystals of lead iodide begin to form,

Baffling Breaths
a. Approx. 70% wastes of the body are eliminated in the form of gases.
b. The body inhales because of high carbon dioxide levels in the blood rather
than low levels of oxygen. This is regulated by the Medulla Oblongata in the
brain.
d. Lungs are the only body organs that can float on water, because of the air
in alveoli. In fact, doctors employ the "lung float test" during autopsies to
determine if a baby was born dead or alive. If they don't float, it was a still
birth, but if it does, the baby was born alive.
e. Many people in the world are living with just one lung. Although it might
alter stamina, but survival is fairly possible.
f. For balancing the breath between the nostrils, our body automatically
changes sides for every 30 min.
h. When you exercise, your fat burns & converts into CO2, eliminated out as
gas. But you cannot just breathe more to lose weight, you have to exercise
more & eat less.
i. When we breathe in, oxygen is carried by the iron in the haemoglobin of our
RBCs. Iron is only formed in the space due to supernova collisions.

Emphysema
The word ‘Emphysema’ means ‘full of air’ or ‘inflation’. It is a chronic disorder.
Causes : The major cause is excessive cigarette smoking. Others may include
inhalation of smoke or toxic substances over a period of time.
Symptoms : The walls of alveoli are damaged due to excessive
smoking, loss of elasticity of walls of bronchioles and
alveoli. Due to this, the surface area for exchange of gases
is reduced. Alveolar sacs remain filled with air even after
expiration. The lungs remain inflated as exhalation
becomes difficult. This disease may be prevented by
avoiding cigarette smoking.
