Class 09 - Science

1. (a) (A)
Explanation: Mass is an independent quantity but weight is dependent on gravity. As gravity changes, weight also changes.
OR
(b) F1 and F2 are equal
Explanation: F1 and F2 are equal as Newton's law of gravitation obey Newton's third law of motion, i.e., if an object exerts a
force on another object, then the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first object.
2. (d) varying velocity
Explanation: The Earth's orbit is not perfectly circular. As a result its velocity changes slightly over the course of the year.

3. (d) 4 times
Explanation: The force of gravitational attraction between the two bodies of mass (M) and (m) is

Now, If masses of both objects are halved without changing distance between them or M = 2M and 2m

Thus, force becomes four times as we increase the masses to double without altering the distances.

4. (c) revolution of the earth around the sun
Explanation: The revolution of the earth around the sun takes place in a trajectory orbit. The average distance between the
.J
earth and the sun is approximately 150 million km.
5. As the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is one-sixth that on the earth, hence the weight of the man will decrease on the
surface of moon by 100/6 i.e. it becomes 16.66.

6. (d) A is false but R is true.

ah
Explanation: A is false but R is true.
M

7. (c) A is true but R is false.

Sh

Explanation: A is true but R is false.

8. (b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
th

Explanation: Net force = real weight - upthrust (weight of the liquid displaced).
The object rises above the liquid surface to an extent that the weight of the liquid displaced by the part of the object. Thus, an
ol

object will float when upward thrust is greater than its actual weight. (The density of the object must be less than the density of
Se

the liquid).
ho

9. (b) He does zero work against the force of gravity

Explanation: He does zero work against the force of gravity because no displacement is done.
10. (d) 1 joule
Sc

Explanation: 1 joule(J) is the amount of work done when a force of 1 Newton(N) displaces an object 1 meter(m).
1J = 1N × 1m or 1J = 1Nm.
11. (c) mg h

Explanation:
If you consider gravitational field to be constant till height 'h’ then we know that Center of the mass of tank lies h

2
height above
ground level.
Now potential energy will be = m× g × ( ) .h

OR
(c) upright, widest base
Explanation: In an upright position, the base area is smallest while in the widest base position, base area is greatest and

12. (a) Only student A
Explanation: p ∝ A
1
(for the same magnitude of force)
If area increase then pressures decrease and if area decreases then pressure increase.
OR
(a) 6 m
Explanation: Energy = mgh = m × 10 × 10 = 100m Joule.
Energy is reduced by 40% then the remaining energy is 60m Joule.
Therefore 60 m = m × 10 × h`
or h` = 6 m
13. Mass of the object, m = 12 kg,
potential energy, Ep = 480 J.
Ep = mgh

480 J = 12 kg × 10 ms-2 × h
480J

Time used, t = 6 h
Energy = power × time taken

16. (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
ol

Explanation: From, definition, work done in moving a body against a conservative force is independent of the path followed.
Se

17. (c) A is true but R is false.

ho

Explanation: For conservative forces the sum of kinetic and potential energies at any point remains constant throughout the
motion. It does not depend upon time. This is known as law of conservation of mechanical energy. According to this rule.
Kinetic energy + Potential energy = E = constant

Explanation: Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
18. (b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

Explanation: An object to move in a circle, there must be an inward force acting upon it in order to cause its inward
acceleration. This is referred as the centripetal force.
