DRUG AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE
Drug abuse is the excessive use or continuous use of drugs without regard for accepted
medical practice. When a drug is used to incite pleasure or escape reality, especially
without the doctor's prescription, is said to be abused.
Substances can also be abused when they are taken beyond acceptable limits. Excess intake
of alcohol, cigarette, Marijuana and Indian helm are all example of substance abuse.
HEALTH EFFECTS OF DRUG ABUSE ON YOUTH
Drug and substance abuse has some immediate effects like lightheadedness, stomach upset,
skin rashes, injection abscesses and so on but there are also more chronic effects like: 1.
There is a 'crash' after the 'high' of taking drugs. There is usually fatigue, depression,
anxiety and dependence after the drug effect has worn off.
2. Drug abusers easily lose focus.
3. Drug abuse increases the rate of accident because most drugs affect the motor nerves
that controls movement of body parts.
4. The aftereffect of some drugs create illusion and hallucinations which terrifies the victim.
5. Unsterilised needles are often used by abusers. This exposes them to a high risk of
contacting dangerous disease.
6. Drug overdose often place its victims in coma or a vegetable state unless taken care off.

FLOODING
CONTENT
 Introduction.
 Causes of Flooding.
 Factors that Affects Flooding.
 Consequences of Flooding.
 How to Control Flooding.
INTRODUCTION
Flood is a disastrous overflow of water from a lake or other body of water due to excessive
rainfall or other input of water.
When there is heavy rain, so much water flows in=to the rivers that they come over the
tops of their banks and flood the land. This can be useful in many places as the flood carries
a lot of silt into the flooded area thereby making that area very good for agriculture.
However, if the floods are deep i.e., much, they can be harmful as they can destroy villages,
etc.
Controlling floods will involve taking risks. Since floods are natural.
CAUSES OF FLOODING
1. Heavy rain.
2. Long periods of rain.
3. Very wet saturated soil.
4. Compacted or dry soil.
5. Overflowing rivers.
6. Lack of drainage system.

2. By building very high walls along the rivers banks to prevent it from overflowing its
banks.
Name_____________________________________________ Date_______________
3. By widening the rivers.
4. By building reservoirs to hold more water during flooding.
5. Streams may be diverted so that they do not flow into a particular river and result to
flooding.

EVALUATION
1. State four consequences of flooding.
2. State four factors that leads to flooding.
3. State fours way to control or manage flooding.
SOIL EROSION
Soil erosion is the wearing away and loss of soil from an area. Soil erosion is the washing
away of soil by heavy rain or wind resulting in formation of gulley and landslides and
leaving behind barren rocks and slits on which plants can no longer grow. Soil erosion
poses serious to agriculture as it wash away the nutrient from the topsoil.
TYPES OF EROSION
Based on the cause of erosion, we have:
Water erosion: This is the erosion caused as a result of heavy rainfall or flood which wash
away the soil on slopes. Constant flow of water create gullies over a long time. When rain
falls on sloppy ground the water runs off thereby washing away a large portion soil and
also breaking down rocks in a process called weathering.
Wind erosion: This the erosion caused by fast moving wind which exposes the top soil and
carry them away. Wind erosion can be controlled by planting trees along the wind path.
These trees serve as windbreaker
HUMAN ACTIVITIES THAT CAUSE EROSION
Burning of bush: The deliberate or accidental burning of bush destroys the soil structure
and exposes it to erosion and high temperature.
Farming: The cutting of trees and clearing of farmlands exposes the soil to erosion
Building of house and industries: The clearing of land before the building of houses
promote erosion.
Growth of town: Development of town leads to the exposure of the soil surfaces which can
easily be washed away.
Construction of roads: The construction of new road leads to the breaking of soil
structure which make it easy for soil to be washed away.
EFFECTS OF EROSION
1. It reduces soil fertility.
2. It damages road and soil surfaces.
3. It destroys farmland and farm produce.
4. It may lead to lose of buildings.
5. It leads to loss of lives through accident and building collapse.
CONTROL OF EROSION
1. Indiscriminate burning of bushes should be stopped.
2. Plant of trees and cover crops.
Name_____________________________________________ Date_______________
3. The practice of mulching in which cut grass residue are spread over the soil surface
under a growing crop which retains moisture, reduces weeds and prevent exposure of the
soil surface thereby reducing soil erosion.
4. Construction of terraces on sloppy land.
METHODS OF PREVENTING SOIL EROSION
1. Wind erosion can be prevented by planting cover crops, grasses and belt of trees which
serves as wind breakers.
2. Water erosion and flooding can be prevented through proper canals and drainage
channels to lead water away in to rivers.
3. Gully erosion can be stopped by small dams with stones and sticks along the gullies in
order to capture soil that is being washed away.
4. Terrace should be build to prevent erosion. Terraces are barriers constructed along
contours of the land which hinders the rapid flow of water down the slopes.

6. Deforestation may lead to starvation and homeless. This is because there will be no food
or wood to build shelter.
7. Deforestation may lead to economic loss if forest raw materials are no longer available
for industry to use or export.
WAYS TO CONTROL DEFORESTATION
1. Afforestation: This is the planting of trees in places where they are not planted before.
Afforestation helps to bring forest condition to places where they do not exist before. An
example of afforestation is the "Plant A Tree" initiative.
2. Reforestation: This is the replanting of trees to replace those trees that have been
removed from the forest.

 Description of Ozone Layer.
 Importance of the Ozone Layer.
 The hazards of Ozone Layer Depletion to Life.
 Control Measures against the Depletion of Ozone Layer.
 Global Warming.
 Consequences of Global Warming.
 Control of Global Warming.
DESCRIPTION OF OZONE LAYER
Ozone is a pale blue poisonous gas found in the earth's upper atmosphere. Ozone (O3) is a
triatomic molecule of oxygen. It is stable than the diatomic oxygen gas (O2). It is present in
low concentration in the troposphere. Ozone was first discovered by Louis Soret in 1865
and confirmed by Schonbein in 1867.
The amount of Ozone in the atmosphere is measured in Dobson's unit.
The stratosphere (upper atmosphere) has highest concentration of ozone to form what is
called the ozone layer. The ozone layer is about 10km-50km above d earth surface.
Ozone is produced in the atmosphere by the action of ultraviolet ray from the sun on
oxygen.
O2 + UV ----> 2[O]
[O] + O2 ----> O3
The ozone is destroyed by free oxygen atoms or elements that react with oxygen.
O3 + [O] ----> 2O2
The depletion of ozone layer simply means the continuous reduction in the amount of
ozone in the atmosphere. Substances like chlorofluorocarbons (CFC), carbon monoxide
(CO), nitrogen oxides etc, are responsible for the depletion of the ozone layer.
IMPORTANCE OF OZONE LAYER
1. Ozone is very important in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and synthetic lubricants.
2. Ozone is used for bleaching substances.
3. Ozone is used to kill microorganisms in water system.
4. Ozone layer protect the earth from the heat of the sun.
5. The ozone layer shields man, animals and plants from the harmful ultraviolet rays from
the sun.
INDUSTRIAL USES OF OZONE
Industrially ozone is used to:
1. disinfectlaundry in hospitals and food factories.
2. deodorizeair and objects especially after fire.
3. assistin processing plastics to allow adhesion of inks.
4. washfresh fruits and vegetable to kill yeast, mould and bacteria.
5. manufacturechemical compounds.

1. Exposure of the skin of man and other animals to the dangerous ultraviolet rays of the
sun which can cause cancer of the skin.
2. Depletion of the ozone layer allows more ultraviolet rays to reach us which may harm
aquatic plants and animals thereby disrupting the ecosystem.
3. Ozone layer depletion leads to the increase in the amount of greenhouse gases which
leads to excessive warming of the earth resulting to alteration of season.
4. Depletion of ozone layer leads to global warming which contributes to flooding and other
related hazards.
5. Depletion of ozone layer in the lower atmosphere may lead to increase in toxic gases.

GLOBAL WARMING
Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the earth over a prolonged
period of time.
Two of the major causes of global warming are:
1. depletion of the ozone layer
2. greenhouseeffect (increase in greenhouse gases).
Greenhouse effect is the reflection of radiant heat back to the earth as a result of
accumulation of greenhouse gases (CO2, H2O CH4) in the lower atmosphere. The most
important greenhouse gas is CO2. The increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere is a major cause of greenhouse effect and global warming.
Sources of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere include:

LIGHT ENERGY
CONTENT
 Introduction.
 Properties of light.
 Reflection.
 Refraction.
 Lenses and glasses.
 Vision.
 Dispersion.
Light can be defined as a form of energy which produces electromagnetic radiation capable
of causing visual sensation. Light is a kind of electromagnetic wave (waves that can travel
in vacuum).
Light is the fastest substance known to man. Light travels at a speed of 3×108 m/s
(300,000,000
metres per second or 299,792.5 km/s). Light travels in a straight line in what is called
Rectilinear propagation of light until it encounters an obstacle. When light cannot pass
through an object, shadow is formed. An object that does not allow light to pass through it
is an opaque object while those objects that allow light to pass through them are called
transparent object.
An object that can produce light on it's own is called luminous e.g. sun, light bulb, fire.
While an object that does not produce light but may reflect it is called non luminous e.g.
the moon, mirror, stone, chair etc.
Light waves are also called light rays. A line with an arrowhead is used to represent a ray of
light. A collection of light rays is called light beam.
There are there type of beam. They are:
i.
Parallel beam: This is the type of beam in which the light rays are parallel to one another.
ii.
Divergent beam: This is the type of beam in which the ray scatters from a point which is
usually the source, a convex mirror or a concave lens.
iii.
Convergent beam: This is the type of beam in which the rays converge or meet at a point
called focus.
PROPERTIES OF LIGHT
Light has the following properties:
1. Reflection.
2. Refraction.
3. Diffraction.
4. Dispersion.
5. Interference.
6. Polarization.
Name_____________________________________________ Date_______________
EVALUATION
1. What is light?
2. What are the types of light beams
there is?
3. List the properties of light.
REFLECTION OF LIGHT
Reflectionoflightis the change in the
direction of light after dashing against a
surfray. Reflection involves two rays of
light: an incoming incident ray and an
outgoing reflected ray.
LAW OF REFLECTION
1. The angle of incident ray, the normal and reflected ray at the point of incidence all lie on
the same plane.
2. The angle of incidence (i) and the angle of reflection (r) are equal but on opposite sides of
the normal. i = r
N.B: The normal is an imaginary line at right angle to the mirror at the point of incidence.
TYPES OF REFLECTION
1. Regular
or
specular
reflection: This is when
parallel beam of light is
reflected in one direction.
Such reflection takes place
on smooth, polished surface
such as a plane mirror.
2. Diffuse reflection: This is when a parallel beam of light is reflected in different directions.
Such reflection takes place from a rough surface, such as water surface or paper surface.
EVALUATION
1. What is reflection?
2. State the laws of reflection
3. What the types of reflection?
REFRACTION
Refraction is the bending or change in the direction of wave when it moves from one
medium to another where its speed is different. A medium is a material or space that allows
wave pass through it. Refraction is responsible for image formation by lens and the eye.
When you dip your legs into a pool, it disappears bent in the pool. A fish in an aquarium
seem to radically change position as it is being viewed from different view points. These
are as a result of refraction.
LAWS OF REFRACTION
1. The first law of refraction states that the incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal at
the point of incidence all lie on the same plane.
2. The second law states that the sine of the angle of incidence (i) to the sine of the angle of
refraction (r) is a constant for a given pair of media.
This is also known as Snell's law and the ratio of "I" to "r" is called the refractive index.
EVALUATION
Name_____________________________________________ Date_______________
1. What is refraction?
2. State the laws of refraction.
LENSES AND GLASS PRISMS
Lenses are curved glasses that disperse or coverge light to a focus.
There are two main types of lenses:
i.
Concave lens (diverging lens): This is a lens that bulges outward. A concave lens diverges
or scatters light. It is used to correct shortsightedness (myopia) ii.
Convex lens (converging lens): This lens bends inward. It converges light to a real focus. It
is used to correct longsightedness (hypermetropia).
There are also two types of glass prisms:
(i) Rectangular glass prisms (ii) Triangular glass prisms
EVALUATION
1. What is a lens?
2. Mention the types of lenses.
VISION
Vision is the ability to create an image. The organ of the body that is concerned with vision
is the eye. Light enters through a clear covering
of the eye called the cornea. It then passes through the adjustable opening in the iris called
the pupil. Beyond the pupil is the lens which is a bit soft and flexible. The lens focus image
on the retina while like a film or screen at the back of the eye.
The eye and camera are alike in function and arrangement of part. Both are compared for a
lot of reasons.

Name_____________________________________________ Date_______________
DISPERSION OF LIGHT
This is the splitting or separation of light into different colours. Each colour bends by
different degrees when refracted. The colours of light that are gotten after separation are
called spectrum.
Dispersion of light can be done by passing light through a triangular prism.
RAINBOW
A natural phenomenon that demonstrates the dispersion of light is the the formation of
rainbow.
The rainbow is an arc of light with an angular radius of 42° centred on a direction which is
opposite to that of the sun in sky (I.e it is centered on the direction of propagation of the
sun rays). Thus, if the sun low in the sky (I.e close to the horizon) we see almost a full circle.
If the sun is higher up in the sky we see a smaller arc. If the sun is more than the angular
radius 42° above the horizon, then there will be no rainbow (for viewers on ear surface).
Observers on a hill may see part of the rainbow below the horizontal i.e an arc greater than
a semicircle. Passengers on airplane can sometimes see a full circle. The colours of the
rainbow vary smoothly from red on the outside and violet on the inside. There are seven
colours of the rainbow; red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
In the dispersion of light, a ray of enters into a triangular glass prism and it is dispersed
into colours seven colours written as ROYGBIV.

SOUND ENERGY
CONTENT
 Introduction.
 Transmission of sound.
 Reflection of sound.
 Hearing.
INTRODUCTION
Sound is a wave caused by vibration of matter. It is a property of vibrating objects. These
objects may be solid, liquid or gases. If there is an elastic medium (i.e a medium which is
capable of being compressed between the vibrating object and a suitable apparatus such as
a microphone, ear of animals) noise or sound will be detected.
Sound may be produced in a variety of ways, normally as a result of some mechanical
disturbances on an object, causing it to vibrate.
For example:
 A blow by a hammer on a piece of iron causes the iron (and the hammer) to vibrate for a
short while.
 A guitar string vibrates under the rubbing action of the bow.
 A tightly stretched skin on a drum is set to vibrate when it is struck.
 Vocal cord of humans vibrate when air from the lungs pass out through the larynx
 An explosion sets the surrounding air into vibration.
TRANSMISSION OF SOUND
This is the passage of sound from one point to another e.g. from one room in a building to
another or from the street into a room in the building.
The transmission and production of sound can be demonstrated in the laboratory using a
tuning fork. The tuning fork has two steel prongs which when struck with a hard surface
gives sound.
During the vibration, the prongs of the tuning fork present a hazy appearance due to their
rapid to and fro movements. If the vibrating prongsare dipped into a beaker of water, the
water is seen to be violently agitated. The transmission of natural vibration from the tuning
fork to the water is called
Resonance.
Soundistransmitted through matter such as air, water or solid metals. The matter or
material through which sound is transmitted is called a medium. Sound travels faster in
solid than in liquid and faster in liquid than in gases. The speed of sound in dry air is 332
m/s, 1484 m/s in water and 5,120 m/s in iron.
EVALUATION
1. What is sound?
2. Explain the transmission of sound.
REFLECTION OF SOUND
When sound reflects off a special curved surface called a parabola, it will bounce out in a
straight line no matter where it originally hits.
Name_____________________________________________ Date_______________
Many entertainment stages are designed as a parabola so that the sound will go directly
into the audience instead of bouncing on the stage. If the parabola is closed off by another
curve surface it is called an ellipse. Sound will travel from one focus to another no matter
where it strikes the wall.
A whispering gallery is designed as an ellipse. If your friend stands at one focus and you
stand at the other, his whisper will be heard clearly by you. No one in the rest of the room
will hear anything.
Reflection of sound is responsible for echoes.
An echo is a sound that is reflected back to it source. While multiple overlapping echoes is
called reverberation.
HEARING
Hearing is the ability to perceive sound by detecting vibrations, change in the pressure of
the surrounding medium through an organ called the ear. The inability of the ear to hear is
called deafness. There are three main components of the ear: the outer ear, the middle ear
and the inner ear.
The outer ear includes the visible part of the ear (or the pinna), the auditory canal and the
eardrum. Sound travel in waves and when these waves arrive at the eardrum they cause
vibration.
The eardrum amplifies the incoming air pressure waves to a single firm with a certain
extent (amplitude): this allows fir the differentiation of sound.
The middle ear consists of a smaller air-filled chamber that is located behind the eardrum.
Within the chamber are three smallest bones in the body known collectively as ossicles.
The ossicles are; malleus (hammer), incus (anvil) and stapes (stirrup). The stapes is the
smallest bone in the body.
The ossicles aid the transmission and amplification of the vibration from the ear drum to
the inner ear.
The innerear, which comprises the cochlea (a coiled canal filled with fluid) which is
connected to auditory nerve cells which pass on the signal to the brain.

MAGNETISM
CONTENT
 Introduction.
 Law of magnetism.
 Magnetic poles and field.
 Care of magnet.
A magnet is a substance or materal that attracts metals like iron and other ferometals.
Magnetism is the ability of a substance to attract a metal that contains iron.
LODESTONE
Lodestones are rock that are magnetic. They are made of magnetite (Fe3O4) a form of iron
oxide. A piece if iron is then referred to as a lodestone. The Chinese appear to have been the
first to discover the lodestone. These qualities of lodestone led to its use as an early form of
compass by Chinese sailors. This is because when the stone is magnetized it will be
attracted to the earth's magnetic field pole. Also, when it is suspended in the air it slowly
turns and points towards the pole.
LAWS OF MAGNETISM
When a bar magnet is suspended so that it can freely rotate and then freely come to rest. It
is noticed that it remains in a North-South direction. Also, when the pole of another bar
magnet is brought near the north pole of the suspended bar magnet, the magnet would not
attract each other, that is, they repel. But when the north pole of the bar magnet is brought
towards the south pole of the suspended bar magnet, they would attract each other.
Therefore, in each case, when like poles are brought near each other there is repulsion.
When unlike poles are near each other there is attraction. These led to the laws of
magnetism which states that:
"Like poles repel each other while unlike poles attract each other". E.g. north-north or
south-south will repel while south-north or north-south will attract.
MAGNETIC POLE AND MAGNETIC FIELD
To identity magnetic poles, a magnet can be brought near a magnet whose poles have
already been Identified (a standard magnet). If attraction occurs, it means that the pole of
the magnet beside the identified pole of the standard magnet is not alike e.g. North pole of
the standard magnet will be attracted to the south pole of the other magnet and vice versa.
If repulsion occurs, it means both poles are alike and by this the unknown poles of the
magnet are consequently identified.
EVALUATION
1. What is magnetism?
2. State the law of magnetism.
MAGNETIC FIELD
This is a condition found in the region around a magnet, characterized by the existence of
magnetic poles. It can also be described as the region or space around a magnet in which
magnetic force is felt.
THE CARE OF MAGNETS
There is the need to care for magnets so that they would not lose their ability to magnetise.
The following ways are necessary for caring for magnets.
Name_____________________________________________ Date_______________
1. Magnets should be heaped with like-magnets. They should be kept away from the edge of
flexible magnets because it can actually reverse the polarity.
2. Replacement covers can be purchased for many of the polar power magnets because
magnet covers and materials may eventually be worn and torn 3. They should be clean by
wiping them gently with a damp soapy sponge and should not be immersed in water.
4. They should be stored by spreading magnetic signs flay on a smooth metal surface.
5. They should not be left in hot weather or brought close to fire as it can destroy their
properties.
