Q.37. The Tyndall effect is the phenomenon in which the particles in a colloid scatter the beams C
of light that are directed at them. This effect is exhibited by all colloidal solutions and
some very fine suspensions. Therefore, it can be used to verify if a given solution is a
colloid. The intensity of scattered light depends on the density of the colloidal particles as
well as the frequency of the incident light.
When a beam of light passes through a colloid, the colloidal particles present in the
solution do not allow the beam to completely pass through. The light collides with the
colloidal particles and is scattered (it deviates from its normal trajectory, which is a
straight line). This scattering makes the path of the light beam visible, as illustrated
below.

Generally, blue light is scattered to a greater extent when compared to red light. This is
because the wavelength of blue light is smaller than that of red light. This is the reason
why the smoke released by motorcycles sometimes appears blue.
The Tyndall effect was first discovered by (and is named after) the Irish physicist John
Tyndall. The diameters of the particles that cause the Tyndall effect can range from 40 to
900 nanometres. 9 1 nm = 10-9 metre). In comparison, the wavelength of the visible light
spectrum ranges from 400 to 750 nanometres.
(i) There are two solutions A and B. Solution ‘A’ consists of Common salt and water and
solution ‘B’ consists of Starch in Water. Which out of them will show Tyndal effect?
(ii) Define Tyndal effect.
(iii) What should be the range of wavelength of visible light spectrum in metre?
Q.38. All living Organisms are made up of cells and these cells perform all the functions C
essential for the survival of the Organism eg. respiration, digestion, excretion etc. In
Unicellular organisms, a single cell carries out all these functions and in multicellular
organisms different group of cells carry out different functions.
i) Explain the division of labour seen in unicellular organism-Amoeba.
ii) How is this division of labour different in your body?

started
(a) Find the speed of the boy.
