Choose the correct option from the des given bdow: (a) Land 2 (>) 2and3, (ce) Lands (a) 1,2and3 Ans: (c) 1 and 3Page 3 8, The twinkling of a star is due to atmospheric refraction of starlight. The starlight, on entering the earth's atmosphere, undergoes refraction continously belore it reaches the earth. The atmospheric refraction aceurs in a medtinm of gradually changing refractive index. Since the atmosphere bends starlight towards the nonnal, the apparent position of the star is slightly different from its actual position, The star appears slightly higher (above) than its actual pesition when viewed near the horizon. The Sun is visible to us about 2 mimites before the actual sunrise, and about 2 uiluutes after the actual sunset because of atmospheric refraction. By actual sumtise, we mean the actual crossing of the horizon by the Sun. The earth's atimosphere is a heterogeacous mixture of minute particles. These particles include smoke, tiny water droplets, suspended particles of dust and molecules of air. When a beam of light strikes such fine particles, the path of the beam becomes visible. The light reaches us, after being reflected diffusely by these particles. The phenomencn of scattering of light by the colloidal particles gives rise to Tyndall lect. ‘DOWNLOAD FREE INDIN'S BEST STUDY MOBIE APP 30 Sample Peper with Solutions Chapterwise Question Bank of All Subject CERT and Previous 15 Yeats Soved Papers ‘Case Study Questions with full Solutions Word File of Material for Teachers So getMobile app Link Whatsapp at 89056 29969 During the process of respiration in plants, the Airection of diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide depends upon (a) the environmental conditions {D) the requirements of the plant (©) both (a) and (b) (@) none of these ‘Ans: (c) both (a) and (b) The direction of exchange of gases between a plant and its surroundings depends upou the tine of the day and the usage of the gases by the plant.

Ans: Involuntary actions are those which we cannot contzol even if we want to do so. There is nostimulus involved in the involuntary actions. They take place on their own. For example, our heart beats all the ‘ime without our thinking about it. Therefore, the eating of heart is purely involuntary action. The reflex action is also a kind of involuntary action but it takes place in response to a stimulus. For example, the decrease in the size of the pupil of our- eye on stepping out in bright light is a reflex action ‘which takes place in response to a stimulus light. A motor cycle rider without helmet just an accident and suffered a spinal cord injury. In this case which signals will get disrupted and why ? Ans: In ease of spinal cord injury, signals for reflex action and involuntary action will get disrupted. Reflex actions are monitored and controlled through the spinal cord of nervous system and not by the brain, In fact, nerves from all over the bod in a bundle in the spin brain. In case of any injury to the spinal cord, the signals coming from the nerves as well as signals coming to the receptars will be disrupted, Coretta A boy uses spectacles of focal length —60 em .

Stamen is the male reproductive part and it produces pollen grains that are yellowish in colour. Carpel is Present in the centre of a flower and is the female reproductive part. It is made of three parts, The swollen bottom part is the ovary, middle elongated part is the style and the terminal part which may bbe sticky is the stigma. The ovary contains ovules and each ovule has an egg cell. The male germ- cell produced by pollen grain fuses with the female gamete present in the ovule.

When the object is placed anywhere between focus and infinity, the image formed by convex lens is real and inverted. The image is not obtained on the sercon why the object is placed between the focus and the leas. The distance between the optical centre O of the convex lens and the foens point F, and Fs is its focal length.When the object shifts from —o° to F., the image moves from F; to +09 When the object shifts from Fi to 0, the in moves —°9 to O. Object Image A. student did an experiment with a convex lens. He put an object at different distances irom the Tens. In each ease, he messured the distance of the image from the lens. The results were recorded in the following table. 2 Sample Paper 30 Solution CBSE Science Class 10 When, 2F =60 em F=30cm When an object is placed at focus (F = 30cm) of ex lens, the image formed is at infinity. But lufluity Is not any observation in the given table. Hence, F = 30 em is not possible, Now, when, 2F = 40 em F=2 cm (ix) Convex ans concave lens can be determined by touching them, Lenses that are ticker at thelr centres than at their edges are convex, while those that are thicker around their edges are NODIA APP Object distance (in em) | Image distance (in em) % 100 30 24 0 o oo xo 10 10 Unfortmnately, his results are written in the wrong {Rewrite the image distances in the comet order (ii) What is the minimum distance between an object aud iis real Image formed by a couvex lens? (iii) What is the focal length of this lens ? (iv) How do you determine if a lens is concave or Ans: (i) Correct order : 100, 60, 40, 30, 24 (i) ay (iii) When the object distance equals the image distance, they are at twice the focal length from the lens.
