Importance of Physics in the Current Society
The present world has witnessed spectacular progress in terms of technology at a breakneck pace. This
has been made possible only because of Physics. Without this science, there would be no use of
communication equipment, transport systems, television, and many more such facilities.
The advancements in science have led to improvement in living standards and have saved many people's
lives. For example, an application known as sonar is used for navigation underwater. This invention has
resulted in quick rescue from accidents, and ships can now find underwater mines and ammunition.
The development of science has been instrumental in increasing the speed of trains and other vehicles
from 20 to 100 miles per hour. The growth in logistics has led to increasing prosperity as humans, and
food products could be transported to distant places within a short period of time.
Importance of Physics in Meeting Future Energy Requirements
This is a time for change and for transformation. An era of change need not be a dark time of hardship.
Instead, it can be a time of tremendous growth and experience. Change is the only constant in life, but the
development we reap from change makes life worth living.
Physics plays a significant role in meeting the future energy requirements for modern cities. They are
used to develop efficient systems that utilize the available resources and convert them into maximum
utility. In modern times, different sciences have been developed. And this has led to the development of
powerful technologies. In turn, these technologies have changed the way we live today. Some people go
as far as to say that technology is what defines our current era.
Importance of Physics in Medical Technologies
When we talk about the fundamental principles of physics, it is essential to note that they are also vital to
the development of medical technologies. In most cases, the principles or laws of physics can be applied
to this field in one way or another.
The advances in medical technology have brought about remarkable changes and benefits. For instance,
they have contributed significantly to diagnosing diseases, monitoring, and managing them.
The principles of physics are vital in most instances of medical technology or its development. Medical
technologies based on quantum physics include X-ray, which is used for diagnosing, drug discovery, anti-
aging, and many more.
Furthermore, the advancements in medical technology using the laws of physics include computers and
communication devices present in almost every home today. These technologies are now used by
professionals all over the place to diagnose and monitor patients.

Physics is the study of matter and energy. Everything, including the things that make up computers, is
made of atoms. Physics is also the study of how these things interact with each other.
The IT industry is composed of tech companies that create new stuff, and physics is an integral part of
what they do. The IT industry uses physics in many ways to make computers and other devices that we
use in day-to-day life. Physics is used to make semiconductors, which are essential for computers.
Semiconductors are created by reducing silicon (Si) to a fine powder and then subjecting it to extremely
high temperatures, causing it to melt and turn into liquid. Then, by subjecting this liquid substance to
electrical impulses with a vacuum chamber, we can create a crystal that conducts electricity.
People who work in this industry are involved in all this as well as creating new things such as artificial
intelligence and cloud computing. People use physics every day when they do things like sending emails
or making phone calls using a cell phone.
Importance of Physics in the Communication Industry
Physics is a branch of natural science that deals with matter and energy and their relationship with each
other, and the study of their interactions affects the phenomena of nature. Physics is the most fundamental
of all the sciences and has a wide range of applications to modern technologies.
The importance of physics in modern technology can be recognized because it enables mobile devices,
computers, televisions, watches, and many other modern technologies to operate in an automated manner.
The various physical theories have contributed to the invention and advancement of these technologies.
For instance, in communication, physics has been utilized in different ways to develop wireless
communication, optical fiber technology, and satellite broadcasting. In addition to this, physics also
provides a theoretical foundation for telecommunication. The design and performance of modern systems
depend on understanding physical theories.
Therefore, from the above discussion, it can be concluded that physics is an essential subject in the
development of modern technologies. Physics has been used in the development of electronic equipment,
but it has also helped improve signal transmission.
Importance of Physics in Scientific Investment
The most important feature is that the practical skills students acquire in studying Physics can be used to
develop new solutions for scientific issues that are more than just theoretical. The knowledge and skills
acquired in physics allow people to test new ideas in practice to prolong human staying on earth or make
it easier.
The current world depends on scientific discoveries and advances in technology. Many developments
have changed people’s living conditions. For example, people do not need to use candles or lantern lights
because of the appearance of electrical energy.
Summary:
1. Physics is an exciting intellectual adventure that inspires young people and expands the frontiers
of our knowledge about Nature.
2. Physics generates fundamental knowledge needed for the future technological advances that will
continue to drive the economic engines of the world.

Paragraph for brainstorming of lesson Plan two.
Introduction to Motion
When we talk about motion or rest it is with reference to some point known as the origin. So, now with
respect to the change in the position we have two quantities which can be used to describe that change in
position. They are distance and displacement. So now the question is, what is the difference between the
two?
Talking about distance, it is defined as the total path length covered during the motion. It can be
represented only by magnitude. On the other hand, displacement is the shortest distance between the
initial and final position. It requires both magnitude and direction for complete representation.
What is Motion?
We can define motion as the change of position of an object with respect to time. A book falling off a
table, water flowing from the tap, rattling windows, etc all exhibit motion. Even the air that we breathe
exhibits motion! Everything in the universe moves. We live in a universe that is in continual motion. The
fundamental particle of a matter that is the atom is in constant motion too. Every physical process in the
universe is composed of motion of some sort. The motion can either be swift or slow, but motion exists. It
is important that we give due attention to the study of motion because of its importance in the physical
world. Motion is mainly described in terms of the following terms:
• Distance
• Displacement
• Speed
• Time
As discussed earlier, distance and displacement are used to describe the change in position. Now, if
someone asks what the distance between A and B is, we can’t give a definite answer because it depends
on the path taken. It may or may not be the same for all three paths. But for displacement, we can always
give a definite answer as it is a straight line joining the two points. In other words, displacement is
nothing but the shortest distance between the two points, which in this case is Path 2. Also, it has a
particular direction from A to B, as we can see.
Page 21 of 167
So now that we have a basic idea of both, we will try to solve an example: Suppose the distance between
two cities, A and B, is ‘d’. A person goes from A to B and returns. Calculate distance travelled and
displacement.
Types of Motion
We might have noticed that different objects move differently. Some objects move in a curved path, some
in a straight path and a few others in a different way. According to the nature of the movement, motion is
classified into three types as follows:
• Linear Motion
• Rotary Motion
• Oscillatory Motion
Page 22 of 167
Linear Motion
In linear motion, the particles move from one point to another in either a straight line or a curved path.
The linear motion depending on the path of motion, is further divided as follows.
Rotatory Motion
Rotatory motion is the motion that occurs when a body rotates on its own axis. A few examples of the
rotatory motion are as follows:
• The motion of the earth about its own axis around the sun is an example of rotary motion.
• While driving a car, the motion of wheels and the steering wheel about its own axis is an example
of rotatory motion.
Oscillatory Motion
Oscillatory motion is the motion of a body about its mean position. A few examples of oscillatory
motion are.
• When a child on a swing is pushed, the swing moves to and fro about its mean position.
• The pendulum of a clock exhibits oscillatory motion as it moves to and fro about its mean
position.
• The string of the guitar when strummed moves to and fro by its mean position resulting in an
oscillatory motion.
Examples of Motion
Now let us understand motion clearly with the help of a few examples.
• Our daily activities, like walking, running, closing the door, etc. involve motion. There is a change
of position of the object involved in these activities.
• The flow of air in and out of our lungs is also an example of motion.
• The automobiles that carry passengers from the place of pick up to the destination possess motion.
In this case, the position of passengers is changed from one place to another.

Chapter: Kinematics
Activity I (Brainstorming) – The teacher will provide the paragraphs given below
as handouts to the students in pairs and ask them to read, brainstorm on, and write
down answers of the questions given in the end in their fair notebooks.
Handouts
Frame of Reference Assume that a school bus passes by as you stand on the
sidewalk. It’s obvious to you that the bus is moving. It is moving relative to you
and the trees across the street. But what about the children inside the bus? They
aren’t moving relative to each other. If they look only at the other children sitting
near them, they will not appear to be moving. They may be able to tell that the bus
Initiation is moving only by looking out the window and seeing you and the trees passing by. 5min
This example shows that how we perceive motion depends on our frame of
reference. Frame of reference refers to something that is not moving with respect to
an observer that can be used to detect motion. For the children on the bus, if they
use other children riding the bus as their frame of reference, they do not appear to
be moving. But if they use objects outside the bus as their frame of reference, they
can tell they are moving.
Questions 1
• Define frame of reference.
• How does a frame of reference help an observer detect motion?
• If you were standing on a sidewalk and saw a bus, go by, how could you say
that the bus was moving? What might be your frame of reference?
The students will verify their answers at the end of this lesson.

1: Types of Graphs
Understanding the numerical of Physics with the help of equations and derivations can
be uninteresting, but with the help of graphs, it becomes interesting as well as easy to
understand what the solution is explaining. Graphs in Physics play a vital role as most
of the concepts use them.
What is Graph?
Development Graph is defined as a pictorial representation of information which is a two- 28min
dimensional drawing explaining the relationship between dependent and independent
variables. Independent variables are represented on the horizontal line known as x-axis
while the dependent variables are represented on the vertical line known as y-axis.
We have already seen a mathematical approach towards speed, velocity, distance and
displacement. But graphs give us a better understanding of the motion. From the point
of view of physics, one should be able to interpret motion by looking at graphs. Here
we will be talking mainly about velocity time graph and displacement time graph.

If an object moves along a straight line, the distance travelled can be represented by a
distance-time graph.
In a distance-time graph, the gradient of the line is equal to the speed of the
object. The greater the gradient (and the steeper the line) the faster the object is
moving.
Homework 4min
Example
Calculate the speed of the object represented by the green line in the graph, from 0 to 4
s.
change in distance = (8 - 0) = 8 m
change in time = (4 - 0) = 4 s
speed = 8÷4
speed=2 m/s

After his/her presentation teacher will give the following content for reading.in pairs
or groups.
1: Elastic Collisions: Elastic Collisions occur when objects strike each other, and no
deformation occurs. Kinetic energy and momentum are conserved. A good example
of this is seen between billiard ball collisions.
Development 28min
Example: A ball is moving at 5.0 m/s with a mass of 3.0 kg strikes a second ball
with a mass of 4.0 kg that is sitting motionless. What is the velocity of the second
ball if the first ball stops immediately after the collision?
Inelastic Collisions: Inelastic collisions occur when objects strike each other and
stick together. Momentum is conserved, but kinetic energy is not conserved since
deformation occurs between the objects and energy is lost in this process.
Page 49 of 167
Momentum Conservation Principle
• The Law of Action-Reaction (Revisited)
• Momentum Conservation Principle
• Isolated Systems and Collision Analysis
• Collision Analysis and Momentum Problems
• Using Equations as Guides to Be Thinking
• Momentum Conservation in Explosions
One of the most powerful laws in physics is the law of momentum conservation. The
law of momentum conservation can be stated as follows.
For a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the
total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total
momentum of the two objects after the collision. That is, the momentum lost by
object 1 is equal to the momentum gained by object 2.
Page 50 of 167
The forces act between the two objects for a given amount of time. In some cases,
the time is long; in other cases, the time is short. Regardless of how long the time is,
it can be said that the time that the force acts upon object 1 is equal to the time that
the force acts upon object 2. This is merely logical. Forces result from interactions
(or contact) between two objects. If object 1 contacts object 2 for 0.050 seconds,
then object 2 must be contacting object 1 for the same amount of time (0.050
seconds). As an equation, this can be stated as
Since the forces between the two objects are equal in magnitude and opposite in
direction, and since the times for which these forces act are equal in magnitude, it
follows that the impulses experienced by the two objects are also equal in magnitude
and opposite in direction. As an equation, this can be stated as

of course, collisions between molecules are elastic if no damage is done to the
molecules.
Much more common are inelastic collisions. These collisions occur whenever kinetic
energy is not conserved, primarily when an object's height is increased after the collision
or when one of the objects is compressed.
In order to apply conservation of momentum, you have to choose the system in such a
way that the net external force is zero.
Example:
In the example given below, the two cars of masses m1 and m2 are moving with
velocities v1 and v2 respectively before the collision. And their velocities change to
V1` and V2`after collision. To apply the law of conservation of linear momentum, you
cannot choose any one of the cars as the system. If so, then there is an external force on
the car by another car. So, we choose both the cars as our system of interest. This is why
in all collisions, if both the colliding objects are considered as a system, then linear
momentum is always conserved (irrespective of the type of collision)

SLO(s):
Teacher will explain balanced and unbalanced force at the same time he/she will
state Newton’s law during his/her presentation.
1: What Are Balanced and Unbalanced Forces? In the last section, you experienced
pushing and pulling with equal and unequal forces on an object. In some of the
situations, you noticed that the mass did not move. In other situations, the mass
moved. Your explanation and class discussion helped you understand what makes
objects move. In this reading, you will learn more about the forces on an object
when the motion of an object does not change. This is when forces are balanced.
When the motion of an object changes, the forces are unbalanced. Balanced Forces
Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction. When forces are
balanced, there is no change in motion. In one of your situations in the last section,
you pushed or pulled on an object from opposite directions but with the same force.
You observed that the object did not move. When the forces on an object are equal
and in opposite directions, the forces are balanced, and there is no change in motion.
Remember when the heavy bucket in your classroom was pushed lightly? It was
standing still, or at rest. Although a force was applied to it, the bucket remained at 28mi
Development rest. Its motion did not change. The forces acting on the bucket were balanced. It n
was pushed in one direction, but a different force, called friction, pushed back in the
opposite direction. The two forces were equal in size and opposite in direction, so
they cancelled out each other, and no motion occurred.
In one investigation, you applied balanced forces to a heavy object. You pushed on
the object with the same amount of force from opposite sides. The force probes
measured the amount of force you applied on each side. You saw that the forces
were the same.
Page 56 of 167
You also pulled on the object with balanced forces: forces that are equal in size and
opposite in direction.
Balanced forces do not result in any change in motion. Unbalanced forces: forces
applied to an object in opposite directions that are not equal in size. Unbalanced
forces result in a change in motion. Friction: the force that opposes the motion or
tendency toward motion of two objects that are in contact.
The same amount of force in opposite directions. The force probes showed that the
forces were equal. In both cases, you observed that the motion of the object did not
change. It stayed at rest and did not move. Another example of balanced forces can
be seen in the game tug-of-war. In this game, the same number of people hold onto
each end of a rope. A flag is tied to the center of the rope. Each team pulls on the
rope and tries to move the flag to its side. Imagine you are playing tug-of-war with
your friends. Your team starts by pulling really hard, with all its strength. But the
other team is also pulling with an equal amount of force and in the opposite
direction. The flag in the middle of the rope does not move. The flag does not move
because the force your team is pulling with is equal to the force applied by the other
team but in the opposite direction. The forces are in opposite directions. The forces
on the rope are balanced. When the forces are balanced, the flag in the center of the
rope will not move. To win the game, one team must apply more force than the
other.

stop, or change the direction and speed of the object. Think back to the game of tug-
of-war.
At the start of the game, both teams pulled equally hard on opposite ends of the

did not move.

Net Force: Mass: Acceleration: Where, Fnet =
Net Force m = Mass a = Acceleration.
Substituting the values in the above given formula,
Net Force (Fnet)= 15 x 10 = 150 N Therefore, the value of Net force = 150 N
Example 2:
Refer the newton 2nd law of motion problems with solutions: A softball has a mass
of 1.5 kg and hits the catcher's glove with a force of 30 N? What is the acceleration
of the softball?
Solution:
Substituting the values in the above given formula, Acceleration = 30 / 1.5 = 20
m/s2 Therefore, the value of Acceleration is 20 m/s2
Example 3:
Refer the problem with solution: What is the mass of a truck if it produces a force of
15000 N while accelerating at a rate of 6 m/s2?
Solution:
Substituting the values in the above given formula, Mass = 15000 / 6 = 2500 kg
Therefore, the value of Mass is 2500 kg
Newton’s Second Law Solved Examples
Example 1:
If there is a block of mass 2kg, and a force of 20 N is acting on it in the positive x-direction,
and a force of 30 N in the negative x-direction, then what would be its acceleration?
We first have to calculate the net force acting on it to calculate its acceleration.
= 20 N – 30 N = -10 N
Mass = 2kg
The negative acceleration indicates that the block is slowing, and its acceleration
vector is moving in an opposite direction directed opposite to the direction of motion.
Example 2:
How much horizontal net force is required to accelerate a 1000 kg car at 4 m/s2?
Solution:
Newton’s 2nd Law relates an object’s mass, the net force on it, and its acceleration:
Therefore, we can find the force as follows:
Fnet = ma
Substituting the values, we get
1000 kg × 4 m/s2 = 4000

Types of Inertia
• Inertia at rest: A body remains at rest due to the inertia (opposing force) present
inside the object until and unless an external force more than the inertial force is
applied to it.
Page 62 of 167
• Inertia in Motion: A body in motion remains in motion until and unless an
external force (maybe brakes, friction, etc) is applied to the body.
• Inertia OD direction: A body moving in one direction remains in the same
direction until and unless some force is applied in order to change the direction of
the body.
Question 1: When sitting in a bus, the brakes are applied, should the people in
the bus move forward, backward, or remain intact?
Answer:
When brakes are applied on a bus in motion. People will move forward with a jerk.
This is because people along with the bus are in motion, and when brakes are applied
on the bus, people are still in motion due to the inertia in motion. Therefore, they still
want to move forward and be in motion, and hence they move forward with a jerk.
Question 2: Why a carpet is beaten to remove dust?
Answer:
The concept of inertia plays a role in the minutest things done in daily life. A carpet is
beaten to remove dust because the carpet and the dust sticking to the carpet are both at
rest, and when.

3: While giving presentation teacher will ask to note down key points.
Examples
We see friction in our day-to-day activities. Following are the ten examples of friction in
daily life:
Page 64 of 167
1. Walking –We can walk only if we apply frictional force. Friction is what holds
your shoe to the ground. The friction present on the ice is very little, this is the
reason why it is hard to walk on the slippery surface of the ice.
2. Writing – A frictional force is created when the tip of the pen encounters the
surface of the paper. Rolling friction is what comes into play while writing with a
ballpoint pen while sliding friction arises when one writes with a pencil.
3. Skating – A thin film of water under the blade is necessary to make the skate
slide. The heat generated by the skate blade rubbing against the surface of ice
causes some of the ice to melt right below the blade where the skater glides over
the ice. This water acts as a lubricant reducing friction.
4. Lighting a matchstick – When the head of the matchstick is rubbed against a
rough surface, heat is generated, and this heat converts red phosphorous to white
phosphorous. White phosphorous is highly inflammable and the matchstick
ignites. Sometimes, matchsticks fail to ignite due to the presence of water. Water
lowers friction.
5. Driving of the vehicle on a surface- While driving a vehicle, the engine
generates a force on the driving wheels. This force initiates the vehicle to move
forwards. Friction is the force that opposes the tyre rubber from sliding on the
road surface. This friction avoids skidding of vehicles.
6. Applications of breaks in the vehicle to stop it- Friction braking is the most
widely used braking method in vehicles. This process involves the conversion of
kinetic energy to thermal energy by applying friction to the moving parts of a
vehicle. The friction force resists the motion and in turn, generates heat. This
conversion of energy eventually bringing the velocity to zero.
7. Flight of aero planes- Drag is the force that opposes the forward motion of the
aero plane. The friction which resists the motion of an object moving through a
fluid or immobile in a moving fluid, as occurs when we fly a kite. The friction of
the air is created as it meets and passes over an aero plane and its components.
Drag is generated by air impact force, skin friction and displacement of the air.
8. Drilling a nail into the wall- Friction is responsible for fixing of nails in a
wall. As the nail is driven into the wall, the nearby material to the nail of the wall
gets compressed. This exerts a force on the nail. This force is the friction that
converts the normal force exerted by the compressed layers of the wall into the
resisting shear force. In this manner the friction cause nails and screws to hold on
to walls.
9. The dusting of the carpet by beating it with a stick- When the carpet is beaten
with the stick, the dust comes out. The dust is carried off by the wind or falls on
the floor. The carpet exhibits a little static friction that holds the dust to the
carpet. When the carpet is beaten, it will overcome the friction and the carpet
will move away from the dust making the carpet free from dust.
10. Sliding on a garden slide- We know that friction is a force that is present
whenever two objects rub against each other. In case of a slide in the garden such

What is a Moon?
Moons – also known as natural satellites – orbit planets and asteroids in our solar system. Earth has one
moon, and there are more than 200 moons in our solar system. Most of the major planets – all except
Mercury and Venus – have moons. Pluto and some other dwarf planets, as well as many asteroids, also
have small moons. Saturn and Jupiter have the most moons, with dozens orbiting each of the two giant
planets.
Moons come in many shapes, sizes, and types. A few have atmospheres and even hidden oceans beneath
their surfaces. Most planetary moons probably formed from the discs of gas and dust circulating around
planets in the early solar system, though some are "captured" objects that formed elsewhere and fell into
orbit around larger worlds.
The eight planets can be divided into two distinct categories on the basis of their densities (mass per unit
volume). The four inner, or terrestrial, planets—Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars—have
rocky compositions and densities greater than 3 grams per cubic cm. (Water has a density of 1 gram per
cubic cm.) In contrast, the four outer planets, also called the Jovian, or giant, planets—
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—are large objects with densities less than 2 grams per cubic cm;
they are composed primarily of hydrogen and helium (Jupiter and Saturn) or of ice, rock, hydrogen, and
helium (Uranus and Neptune). The dwarf planet Pluto is unique—an icy, low-density body smaller than
Earth’s Moon, more similar to comets or to the large icy moons of the outer planets than to any of the
planets themselves. Its acceptance as a member of the Kuiper belt explains these anomalies.
The relatively small inner planets have solid surfaces, lack ring systems, and have few or no moons. The
atmospheres of Venus, Earth, and Mars are composed of a significant percentage of
oxidized compounds such as carbon dioxide. Among the inner planets, only Earth has a strong magnetic
field, which shields it from the interplanetary medium. The magnetic field traps some of the electrically
charged particles of the interplanetary medium inside a region around Earth known as the magnetosphere.
Heavy concentrations of these high-energy particles occur in the Van Allen belts in the inner part of the
magnetosphere.
The four giant outer planets are much more massive than the terrestrial planets and have immense
atmospheres composed mainly of hydrogen and helium. They have no solid surfaces, however, and their
densities are so low that one of them, Saturn, would actually float in water. Each of the outer planets has a
magnetic field, a ring system, and many known moons, with more likely to be discovered. Pluto has no
known rings and only five known moons. Several other Kuiper belt objects and some asteroids also have
moons of their own.
Page 92 of 167
Gravitational force causes.
a. the planets to orbit the sun,
b. the moon and artificial satellites to orbit the Earth,
c. comets to orbit the sun.
According to Newton, there is an attractive gravitational force between any two objects– pulling them
together. E.g. the planets and comets experience an attractive force towards the Sun.
Moons and artificial satellites are attracted to their planets, and so are pulled towards them.
This gravitational force keeps them moving in curved paths called orbits. The Moon does not crash into
the Earth, and the planets do not crash into the Sun because they are moving.
• Planets further away from the sun travel slower because they have lower gravitational pull due to its
distance away from the sun.
• There is gravitational pull between all masses.
• Larger masses have bigger gravitational pull.
• Every object is surrounded by gravitational pull, which exerts an attractive force on all other planets.
Side note :
The explanation below uses Earth for as an example, any planet can be in place of that.

• Comets
Comets are cosmic snowballs of frozen gases, rock, and dust that orbit the Sun. When frozen, they
are the size of a small town. When a comet's orbit brings it close to the Sun, it heats up and spews dust
and gases into a giant glowing head larger than most planet.

Earth and our solar system are in the Milky Way, a large spiral galaxy containing between 100 billion and
400 billion stars. These appear as a bright band across the night sky that looks like spilled milk, so the
ancient Romans called it the Via Lactea, which is Latin for Milky Way.
Almost every known galaxy has a supermassive black hole in its center, which also plays a part in
determining the galaxy's characteristics. When the black hole is feeding on surrounding gas and dust, the
gravitational beast consumes so much material that it can choke off star formation, Samuel said. The gas
and dust that would typically go into making stars instead falls into the supermassive black hole's maw.
Enormous jets of energy often shoot out from actively feeding supermassive black holes, Samuel added.
These jets can heat up surrounding material, which also prevents the material from collapsing down to
form new stars.

The expanding universe
At the beginning of the 20th century, most professional astronomers still believed that the Milky
Way was essentially the same thing as the visible universe. A minority believed in a theory of island
universes—that the spiral nebulae are enormous star systems, comparable to the Milky Way, and are
scattered through space with vast empty distances between them. One objection to the island-universe
theory was that very few spirals are seen near the plane of the Milky Way, the so-called Zone of
Avoidance. Thus, the spirals must somehow be a part of the Milky Way system. But American
astronomer Heber Curtis pointed out that some spirals that can be viewed edge-on obviously contain huge
amounts of dust in their “equatorial” planes. One might also expect the Milky Way to have large amounts
of dust throughout its plane, which would explain why many dim spirals cannot be seen there; visibility is
simply obscured at low galactic latitudes. In 1917 Curtis also found three novae on his photographs of
spirals; the faintness of these novae implied that the spirals were at great distances from the Milky Way.
The static character of the universe was soon challenged. In 1912, at the Lowell Observatory in Arizona,
American astronomer Vesto M. Slipher had begun to measure the radial velocities of spiral nebulae. The
first spiral that Slipher examined was the Andromeda Nebula, which turned out to be blueshifted—that is,
moving toward the Milky Way—with a velocity of approach of 300 km (200 miles) per second, the
greatest velocity ever measured for any celestial object up to that time. By 1917 Slipher had radial
velocities for 25 spirals, some as high as 1,000 km (600 miles) per second. Objects moving at such speeds
could hardly belong to the Milky Way. Although a few were blueshifted, the overwhelming majority
were redshifted, corresponding to motion away from the Milky Way. Astronomers did not, however,
immediately conclude that the universe is expanding. Rather, because Slipher’s spirals were not
uniformly distributed around the sky, astronomers used the data to try to deduce the velocity of
the Sun with respect to the system of spirals. The majority of Slipher’s spirals were on one side of the
Milky Way and receding, whereas a few were on the other side and approaching. For Slipher, the Milky
Way was itself a spiral, moving with respect to a greater field of spirals.
Orbit of comets
Planetary orbits are all nearly circular, comet orbits are highly excentric .
All orbits around the sun are elliptic, but the planetary orbits look more like a circle, while the comet
orbits look more like a cigar (with the sun near one of the tips).
The earth's distance from the sun varies about 5% from closest to farthest, for a comet we see a factor of
30 times or more.
This means that planets stay more or less at the same distance from the sun, while comets travel as far out
as beyond Neptune, and can travel as far in as Mercury. For us they are only visible when they come
'near' the sun, as only then a tail can develop through the sun's radiation.
Also the planes of planetary orbits are more or less the same within a few degrees of the Earth's orbit
(called the ecliptic ), while comets (and dwarf planets) can move in quite different planes.

Types of energy can be categorized into two broad categories – kinetic energy (the energy of moving
objects) and potential energy (energy that is stored). These are the two basic forms of energy. The
different types of energy include thermal energy, radiant energy, chemical energy, nuclear
energy, electrical energy,, sound energy, elastic energy etc
Chemical Energy
Chemical energy is stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules – it is the energy that holds these particles
together. Stored chemical energy is found in food, biomass, petroleum, and natural gas.
Nuclear Energy
Nuclear energy is stored in the nucleus of atoms. This energy is released when the nuclei are combined
(fusion) or split apart (fission). Nuclear power plants split the nuclei of uranium atoms to produce
electricity.
Electrical Energy
Electrical energy is the movement of electrons (the tiny particles that makeup atoms, along with protons
and neutrons). Electrons that move through a wire are called electricity. Lightning is another example of
electrical.
Radiant Energy
Also known as light energy or electromagnetic energy, radiant energy is a type of kinetic energy that
travels in waves. Examples include the energy from the sun, x-rays, and radio waves.
Light Energy
Light energy is a form of electromagnetic radiation. Light consists of photons, which are produced when
an object's atoms heat up. Light travels in waves and is the only form of energy visible to the human eye
Sound Energy
Sound energy is the movement of energy through substances. It moves in waves and is produced when a
force makes an object or substance vibrate. There is usually much less energy in sound than in other
forms of energy.

The Kinetic Molecular Theory allows us to explain the existence of the three phases
of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. In addition, it helps explain the physical characteristics
of each phase and how phases change from one to another. The Kinetic Molecular
Theory is essential for the explanations of gas pressure, compressibility, diffusion, and
mixing. Our explanations for reaction rates and equilibrium also rest on the concepts
of the Kinetic Molecular Theory.
Approximately 20% of the atmosphere is oxygen. This gas is essential for life. In
environments where oxygen is in low supply, it can be provided from a tank. Since
gases are very compressible, a large amount of oxygen can be stored in a relatively
small container. When it is released, the volume expands, and the pressure decreases.
The gas is then available for breathing under normal pressure.
Kinetic-Molecular Theory
The kinetic-molecular theory is a theory that explains the states of matter and is based
Initiation on the idea that matter is composed of tiny particles that are always in motion. The 15min
theory helps explain observable properties and behaviors of solids, liquids, and gases.
However, the theory is most easily understood as it applies to gases, and it is with gases
that we will begin our detailed study. The theory applies specifically to a model of gas
called an ideal gas. An ideal gas is an imaginary gas whose behavior perfectly fits all
the assumptions of the kinetic-molecular theory. Gases are not ideal but are very close
to being so under most everyday conditions.
1. Gases consist of very large numbers of tiny spherical particles that are far
apart from one another compared to their size. The particles of a gas may
be either atoms or molecules. The distance between the particles of a gas is
much, much greater than the distances between the particles of a liquid or a
solid. Most of the volume of a gas, therefore, is composed of the empty space.
3. Collisions between gas particles and between particles and the container
walls are elastic collisions. An elastic collision is one in which there is no
overall loss of kinetic energy. Kinetic energy may be transferred from one
particle to another during an elastic collision, but there is no change in the total
energy of the colliding particles.
Summary
• Assumptions of the kinetic-molecular theory:
o Gases consist of very large numbers of tiny spherical particles that are far apart
from one another compared to their size.
o Gas particles are in constant rapid motion in random directions.
o Collisions between gas particles and between particles and the container walls
are elastic collisions.
o There are no forces of attraction or repulsion between gas particles.
o The average kinetic energy of gas particles is dependent upon the temperature
of the gas.

Will a raisin, paperclip, penny, small cork, ball of paper, and other small objects
sinks or float if they are placed in water, corn syrup (or light corn syrup), and
vegetable oil?
Write down what you think will happen when you place each object into the three
different liquids based on your guess of the density of liquids. Because these liquids
will have different densities, there will be a density tower, or different layers, that are
visible, sort of like being able to see ice cubes (frozen water) in room temperature
water.
Pour 150 ml of water into beaker #1, 150 ml of corn syrup into beaker #2, and 150
ml of vegetable oil into beaker #3. (If you are using glass jars, use 2/3 cup of liquid,
which is approximately 150 ml.)

Gently set a raisin in each beaker. Does it sink or float? Write down what happens to
the raisin in each beaker.
Take the raisins out of the beakers and try a different object, such as a paperclip or
cork. Record what happens in each beaker.
CONCLUSIONS
Were your predictions, right? Did the raisins and other objects sink and float when
you expected them to? Did they float in one liquid and sink in another? Why do you
think they acted the way they did?
The denser a liquid is, the easier it is for an object to float on it. If one of your
objects floated in the corn syrup but sank in the water, what does that tell you about
the densities of water and corn syrup? Take the experiment a step further to find out
more.
INSTRUCTIONS
Fill two beakers with 150 ml (2/3 cup) of water. Put several drops of blue food
coloring in one beaker, and several drops of red in the second.
Add a handful of ice to the blue water and put it in the refrigerator for a few minutes.
Put the red beaker in the microwave for a minute.
Take the blue beaker out of the fridge and the red beaker out of the microwave. Pour
some of the blue water into the 10 ml graduated cylinder or narrow glass. Using a
pipe, slowly add red water a drop at a time and watch what happens. (This part may
take a little practice—if you add the red water too fast you will force the colors to
mix. Hold the pipet near the surface of the water and keep trying until you get it!)
CONCLUSIONS
Was your prediction, right? What happened to the colored water? Did it stay in
layers? Which layer was on the bottom? On the top?
What does this tell you about the density of hot water compared to cold water? What
would happen if you left the cylinder out until the cold water warmed up and the hot
water cooled off? Do more experimentation to find out!

2: Water Glass Trick. Fill a cup one-third with water. Cover the entire mouth with
an index card. Holding the card in place, take the cup to the sink and turn it upside
down. Remove your hand from underneath. Voilà! Because the water inside the cup
is lighter than the air outside, the card is held in place by about 15 pounds of force
from the air pushing up, while the force of the water pushing down is only about one
pound of force.
Development 28min
Fountain Bottle. Fill a 2-liter soda bottle half full of water. Take a long straw and
insert it in the mouth. Wrap a lump of clay around the straw to form a seal. Blow
hard into the straw—then stand back. You’re blowing increases the air pressure
inside the sealed bottle. This higher pressure pushes on the water and forces it up and
out the straw.
Ping-Pong Funnel. Put a Ping-Pong ball inside the wide part of a funnel and blow
hard into the narrow end. Why doesn’t the ball pop out? As you blow into the funnel,
the air moves faster and lowers the air pressure underneath the ball. Because the air
pressure is higher above the ball than below it, the ball is pushed down into the
funnel—no matter how hard you blow or which direction you point the funnel.

Pascal’s principle, also called Pascal’s law, in fluid (gas or liquid) mechanics,
statement that, in a fluid at rest in a closed container, a pressure change in one part
is transmitted without loss to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of the
container. The principle was first enunciated by the French scientist Blaise Pascal.
Pressure is equal to the force divided by the area on which it acts. According to
Pascal’s principle, in a hydraulic system a pressure exerted on a piston produces an
Development equal increase in pressure on another piston in the system. If the second piston has 28min
an area 10 times that of the first, the force on the second piston is 10 times greater,
though the pressure is the same as that on the first piston. This effect is
exemplified by the hydraulic press, based on Pascal’s principle, which is used in
such applications as hydraulic brakes.
Pascal also discovered that the pressure at a point in a fluid at rest is the same in all
directions; the pressure would be the same on all planes passing through a specific
point. This fact is also known as Pascal’s principle, or Pascal’s law.

Baking in an oven
The hot chocolate has thermal energy from its vibrating particles. When you pour some
cold milk into your hot chocolate, some of this energy is transferred from the chocolate
to the particles in the milk.
So, what happens? Your hot chocolate cools down because it lost some of its thermal
energy to the milk.
The tea has thermal energy from its vibrating particles. When you pour some cold milk
into your hot tea, some of this energy is transferred from the tea to the particles in the
milk.
Display this content for 5 minutes and ask to students for reading.
2: Temperature difference. The greater the difference in temperature between the two
ends of the bar, the greater the rate of thermal energy transfer, so more heat is
transferred. The heat, Q, is proportional to the difference in temperature:
Cross-sectional area. A bar twice as wide conducts twice the amount of heat. In
Initiation general, the amount of heat conducted, Q, is proportional to the cross-sectional 8min
area, A, like this.
Length (distance heat must travel). The longer the bar, the less heat that will make it
all the way through. Therefore, the conducted heat is inversely proportional to the length
of the bar, l:

passes, t — twice the time, twice the heat. Here’s how you express this idea
mathematically.

3: Applications of Conductors
Development 28min
Conductors are quite useful in many ways. They find use in many real-life applications.
For example,
• Aluminum finds its use in making foils to store food. It is also used in
the production of fry pans to store heat quickly.
• Conductors find their use in car radiators to eradicate heat away from the engine.
Examples of Insulators
• Glass is the best insulator as it has the highest resistivity.
Applications of Insulators
As insulators resist the flow of electron, they find worldwide applications. Some of the
common uses include:
• Thermal insulators, disallow heat to move from one place to another. Hence, we
use them in making thermoplastic bottles. They are also used in fireproofing
ceilings and walls.
• Sound insulators help in controlling noise level, as they are good in absorbance of
sound. Thus, we use them in buildings and conference halls to make them noise-
free.
• Electrical insulators hinder the flow of electron or passage of current through them.
So, we use them extensively in circuit boards and high-voltage systems. They are
also used in coating electric wire and cables.

Ask to draw the concept of sea breeze and land breeze they will write down in their
own words also
Homework
2min
Student will also see the past papers to check the nature of questions related to this
topic.
Sea and Land Breezes describe the wind that blows onshore from sea to land during the day and blows
offshore in the evening.
Why do I care? During the summer, the sea breezes are stronger than in winter because of the large
temperature differences between land and ocean water that time of year. The fronts caused by the sea
breezes along the coast can provide a trigger to daily thunderstorm activity in coastal areas, particularly
along the peninsula of Florida.
A sea breeze describes a wind that blows from the ocean inland towards land. This breeze occurs most
often in the spring and summer months because of the greater temperature differences between the ocean
and nearby land, particularly in the afternoon when the land is at maximum heating from the sun.
During the day, the sun heats up both the ocean surface and the land. Water is a good absorber of the
energy from the sun. The land absorbs much of the sun’s energy as well. However, water heats up much
more slowly than land and so the air above the land will be warmer compared to the air over the ocean.
The warm air over the land will rise throughout the day, causing low pressure at the surface. Over the
water, high surface pressure will form because of the colder air. To compensate, the air will sink over the
ocean. The wind will blow from the higher pressure over the water to lower pressure over the land
causing the sea breeze. The sea breeze strength will vary depending on the temperature difference
between the land and the ocean.
At night, the roles reverse. The air over the ocean is now warmer than the air over the land. The land
loses heat quickly after the sun goes down and the air above it cools too. This can be compared to a
blacktop road. During the day, the blacktop road heats up and becomes very hot to walk on. At night,
however, the blacktop has given up the added heat and is cool to the touch. The ocean, however, is able to
hold onto this heat after the sun sets and not lose it as easily. This causes the low surface pressure to shift
to over the ocean during the night and the high surface pressure to move over the land. This causes a
small temperature gradient between the ocean surface and the nearby land at night and the wind will blow
from the land to the ocean creating the land breeze.
Figure B. Temperature variations throughout the day. (Image from University of Wisconsin-Madison).
At locations near the ocean, temperature variations throughout the year can be very small, or at least
smaller than locations farther inland throughout a 24-hour period. Inland areas warm up greatly during
the afternoon while the sun is shining down, but they also cool down quickly at night after sunset. More
water vapor exists in the air around locations near large bodies of water which absorb much of the
moisture from the surrounding water. These locations will warm up during the day but will remain cooler
in comparison to other locations farther inland and will keep the temperature at a comfortable level.
During winter, the locations near the large bodies of water will remain milder than surrounding inland
areas. During the summer, the sea breezes keep these locations cooler than other locations farther inland.
Figure B shows a comparison between the temperature of cities around water and cities farther inland
using only the proximity to water as a variable on the daily temperature.
1: Teacher will explain radiations its contributions and the whole process during his
presentation with the help of diagram during his presentation.
Development 28min
This radiation not only allows us to see, it also warms the glass bulb that contains the
filament. Put your hand near the bulb (without touching it) and you will feel the
radiation from the bulb as well.
Our discussion on this page has pertained to the various methods of heat transfer.
Conduction, convection and radiation have been described and illustrated. The
macroscopic has been explained in terms of the particulate.
Lesson plan: 6
Initiation 8min
If you have stood in front of a fireplace or near a campfire, you have felt the heat
transfer known as radiation. The side of your body nearest the fire warms, while
your other side remains unaffected by the heat. Although you are surrounded by
air, the air has nothing to do with this transfer of heat. Heat lamps, that keep food
warm, work in the same way. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through
space by electromagnetic radiation.
Most of the electromagnetic radiation that comes to the earth from the sun is
invisible. Only a small portion comes as visible light. Light is made of waves of
different frequencies. The frequency is the number of instances that a repeated
event occurs, over a set time. In electromagnetic radiation, its frequency is the
number of electromagnetic waves moving past a point each second.
Our brains interpret these different frequencies into colors, including red, orange,
yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. When the eye views all these different
colors at the same time, it is interpreted as white. Waves from the sun which we
cannot see are infrared, which have lower frequencies than red, and ultraviolet,
which have higher frequencies than violet light. It is infrared radiation that
produce the warm feeling on our bodies.
Most of the solar radiation is absorbed by the atmosphere and much of what
reaches the earth's surface is radiated back into the atmosphere to become heat
energy. Dark colored objects, such as asphalt, absorb radiant energy faster than
light colored objects. However, they also radiate their energy faster than lighter
colored objects.
Conduction is the transfer of heat energy from one substance to another or within a
substance. Have you ever left a metal spoon in a pot of soup being heated on a
stove? After a short time, the handle of the spoon will become hot.
This is due to transfer of heat energy from molecule to molecule or from atom to
atom. Also, when objects are welded together, the metal becomes hot (the orange-
red glow) by the transfer of heat from an arc.
This is called conduction and is a very effective method of heat transfer in metals.
However, air conducts heat poorly.
Convection
Convection is the transfer of heat energy in a fluid. This type of heating is most
commonly seen in the kitchen with a boiling liquid.
Air in the atmosphere acts as a fluid. The sun's radiation strikes the ground, thus
warming the rocks. As the rock's temperature rises due to conduction, heat energy
is released into the atmosphere, forming a bubble of air which is warmer than the
surrounding air. This bubble of air rises into the atmosphere. As it rises, the bubble
cools with the heat contained in the bubble moving into the atmosphere.
Vacuum flask, also called Dewar Vessel, or Thermos Flask, vessel with double
walls, the space between which is evacuated. It was invented by the British
chemist and physicist Sir James Dewar in the 1890s. Thermos is
a proprietary name applied to a form protected by a metal casing.
The vacuum flask was devised to preserve liquefied gases by preventing the
transfer of heat from the surroundings to the liquid. The evacuated space between
the walls (which are ordinarily glass or steel) is practically a non-conductor of
heat; radiation is reduced to a minimum by silvering the glass or steel. The chief
path by which heat can be communicated to the interior of the inner vessel is at the
vessel’s neck, the only junction of the walls, which therefore is made as small as
possible. This thermal isolation applies equally to heat, a hot liquid remaining at a
high temperature in the flask for several hours.
