IV. Answer the following

Question 1.
The distance between two stations is 240km. A train takes 4 hrs to cover this distance. Calculate the speed of the train m/s.
Answer:
The distance between two stations = 240 km
Time taken to cover this distance = 4 hrs
Speed of the train = distance / time
= 240/ 4 km/hrs
= 60 km/hrs

This is the speed of the train in km/hrs,
to convert it into m/s….

Question 2.
Can an object possess translatory and rotatory motion at the same time? Give an example.
Answer:

  1. Yes. An object can possess both translatory and rotatory motions at the same time.
  2. When we observe the motion of a cycle tyre moving in a straight line, all the parts of tyre moves in the same direction of cycle so, we can say it is in translatory motion.
  3. If we observe the rolling of cycle tyre, it move in a curved (circular) path about a iron rod in the middle of the wheel as an axis. So, we can say it is in rotatory motion.
  4. In this way the cycle tyre moving in a straight line possesses both translatory, and rotatory motions.

Question 3.

Answer:

Parts of a bicycleType of motion
The wheelsRotatory and translatory motions
The cycle chainsTranslatory motion (curvilinear motion in elliptical path)
The pedal with its armRotatory motion
The movement of the rider along with the bicycleTranslatory motion

Question 5.
John tied a stone to a string and whirled it around. What type of motion do you observe?
Answer:
When a stone is tied to a string and whirled it around, it move in a circular path around the hand. That means the stone fallows a curved path with respect to the hand as a fixed centre or axis of rotation. So it is said to be in rotatory motion.

Question 6.
What are Uniform and Non-Uniform motions? Give four examples for each type of Motions.
Answer:
i) Uniform motion : “If a body covers equal distances in equal intervals of time, it is said to be in uniform motion”.
Ex: 1. Hands of a clock
2. Revolution of Earth
3. A train going at a steady speed
4. The blades of a fan

ii) Non-uniform motion: If a body covers unequal distances in equal intervals of time, it is said to be in non-uniform motion.
Ex : 1. Movements of butterfly in a garden
2. The motion of a car in a city traffic
3. An aircraft while landing
4. Running of athletes in a marathon

Question 7.
Your friend told you the motion of rocket is fast motion. Will you agree? How can you decide whether the motion of a body is slow or fast?
Answer:

  1. Yes. I agree with him. Because rockets move with the speed of 12 km per second. Its very high speed.
  2. The distance travelled by an object in a given interval of time can help us to decide whether it is faster or slower.
  3. The distance travelled by an object in a unit time is called as its Speed.
  4. Speed = Distance travelled / Time taken to travel.
  5. Units of speed is meter per second (m/s) or kilometre per hour (Km/h).
  6. 1 Km / h = 5/18 m/s
  7. The object moving with less speed is slow and more speed is fast. Thus we can decide whether the motion of a body is slow or fast using its speed.
  8. At a particular instant of time, we can find speed of a vehicle using speedometer.

Question 8.
How can you appreciate the clocks and watches in measuring or estimating time?
Answer:

  1. Clocks and watches are helpful to us in measuring or estimating time.
  2. They help us in scheduling our works properly.
  3. They help us in attending the works on time by displaying the time.
  4. With out clocks and watches its very difficult to estimate the time.
  5. Sometimes they are used to make a loud alert signal at a specified time to make us wake up or recall a work.
  6. Some times they are helpful in measuring the time also.
  7. Now a days they are.available in some other gadgets like mobile phone also.
  8. Thus they become an essential and integral part of our life.

Observe the picture, Kavitha can reach her school in two ways. From A, B roads which path will you suggest her to reach the school early? You will suggest the shortest distance path which is road A.

From the above activity and examples, we can say that when an object travels from one place to another, the length of the path can be measured and it gives the distance between the two places. When an object travels along the straight-line path from one place to another place, it will reach faster. The length of the straight-line path is the shortest distance between two places, called displacement.

Question 5.
Consider the following situation. Robert and Kamala measured the distance trav¬elled while coming to school and the time taken to cover that distance. Their data is shown in the Table. You can draw a graph by following the steps given below:

Time (Minutes)Distance (Meters)
1. 00
2. 1100
3. 2200
4. 3300
5. 4400
6. 5500

Answer:
1) Draw two perpendicular lines to represent the two axic anti mark them as OX and OY. Mark OX as time axis and OY as distance axis.

2) Choose a scale to represent distance and time on the graph.
Time : 1 min = 1 cm.
Distance : 50 m = 1 cn

3) Mark values for the time and the distance on the respective axis according to the scale you have chosen.

Now you have to mark the points on the graph paper to represent each set of values and, join al! the points on the graph. This is the distance-time graph for the given motion.

4) If the distance-time graph is a straight line, it indicates that the object is moving with a constant speed. However, if the speed of the object keeps changing, the graph can be of any other shape. From the distance-time graph we can find the speed of object.
