SECTION-A
1 Atomic mass of element X=4+4=8u, ½
Atomic mass of element Y=4+6=10u ½
The atomic number of both the elements is same, but their atomic masses are different. 1
Relationship between X and Y:Isotopes

2 Every object in the universe attracts every other objects with a force which is directly 1
proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the
distance between their centres.
Importance: The gravitational force of attraction of the earth keeps the atmosphere close to 1
the earth.
3 Given, Initial velocity(u)=40m/s, g=10m/s2
At the maximum height v=0
v= u+gt
0=40+(-10)x t
t =4s
As h= ut+½gt2 1
h= 40x4+½x(-10)x42 =160-80 =80m ½
Displacement = 0
½
Total distance covered = 80m+80m =160m
4 Potential energy = Kinetic energy 1
mgh = KE
0.05×10×10 = 5 J 1

5 Given, Velocity of object(v)= 5m/s

Kinetic energy (K.E) =25J
K.E = ½ mv2
25J = ½ m52 1
m =2kg 1
When velocity is doubled, K.E = ½ x2x102 = 100J
OR
Here, m=20kg , v1 =2m/s , v2 =5m/s
½
In first case, K.E = ½ mv12= ½ x20kg x(2m/s)2 = 40J
½
In the second case = ½ mv22 = ½ x20kg x(5m/s)2 =250J
So, Work done on the bicycle =250J – 40J = 210J 1

earth. 2.Its value remains constant always and

2.Its value varies at various places. everywhere.
3.Its unit is m/s2. 3.Its unit is Nm2/kg2.
4.It is a vector quantity. 4.It is a scalar quantity.

OR
Force of gravitation, F= Gm1m2/r2
(i) When mass of one body (m1 or m2) is doubled, the force gets doubled. ½
F/ = G(2m1)m2/r2 =2Gm1m2/r2 = 2F ½

(ii) When distance between the bodies is doubled, the force becomes one fourth of the ½
original force. ½
F/ = Gm1m2/(2r)2 = ¼Gm1m2/r2 = ¼F

(iii) When the masses of both bodies are doubled

F/ =G(2m1)(2m2)/r2 = 4Gm1m2/r2 = 4F ½
i.e., the force becomes four times the original force. ½

13 (i) The direction of the force and displacement are at 900 to each other, therefore 1
work done is zero. W = Zero.
(ii) In this case both force and displacement are in the same direction, therefore 1
work done is positive. W=F s.
(iii) In this case, the angle between the direction of force and displacement is 1
1800,therefore,W= Fscos1800=F s X(-1) = -Fs
