in front of a lens is obtained on a screen at a distance of 120 cm from it.
Find the focal length of the lens. What would be the height of the image if the
object is 5cm high ?
Ans:
u=−60cm.
OR
(b) List the sign conventions that are
followed in case of refraction of light through spherical lenses. Draw a
diagram and apply these conventions in determining the nature and focal length
of a magnified real image of an object placed 16 cm from the lens.
Ans:
Sign convention for the refraction of
light is as follows.
- All the distances
are measured from the optical centre of the lens.
- All the distances
which are measured in the same direction of the incident light ray (left hand
side of lens) will be taken as positive.
- All the distances
which are measured against the direction of incident light (right hand side)
are taken as negative.
- The perpendicular
distances to principal axis in upward direction will be positive and those in
downward direction will be taken as negative.
Figure below illustrates the
conventions more clearly.
According to the question.
Magnification (m) = -3 (real image is always
inverted).
Object distance (u) = -16cm.
By Magnification Formula;
Magnification, m = v/u
where,
v is the image distance,
u is the object distance
Therefore the focal length is 12 cm.
Since the focal length is positive, therefore the lens is convex lens.

V. Answer the followings: 2X4=8m
(12) Explain the underlying principle and
working of an electric generator.
Ans:
Principle : The electric generator is based on the principle
of electromagnetic induction. When a coil is rotated with respect to a magnetic
field, the number of magnetic field lines through the coil changes. Due to this
a current is induced in the coil whose direction can be found by Fleming’s
right hand rule.
Working : When the armature coil ABCD rotates in a
magnetic field produced by the permanent magnets, it cuts through the magnetic
lines of force.
Due to the rotation of armature coil, the associated magnetic field changes and
an induced electromagnetic force is produced in it. The direction of this
induced electromotive force or current can be determined by using Fleming’s
right hand rule.
In first half cycle the current flows in one direction by brush B1 and
in second it flows in opposite direction by brush B2. This process
continues. So the current produced is alternating in nature.
Functions of Brushes : Brushes
in contact with rings provide the current for external use.
OR
A coil of insulated copper wire is connected
to a galvanometer what will happen if a bar magnet is 1) Pushed into the coil 2) Withdraw from inside the coil 3) Held stationary
inside the coil
Ans:
(i) when magnet is pushed near a bar magnet
then it induces current due to electromagnetic induction.
(ii) When the bar magnet is withdrawn from inside the coil of the insulated
copper wire again the current is induced in the coil but this time it is in
reverse direction.
(iii) When a bar magnet is held stationary inside the coil then no current is
induced that’s why galvanometer will show no deflection.
(13) (a) Write two points of difference
between electric energy and electric power (b) Out of 60w and 40w lamps, which
one has higher electric resistance when in use. (c) What is the commercial unit
of electric energy? Convert it into joules.
Ans:
a) Electrical energy defines
the energy generated
due to the movement of charge carriers in a conductor. While electrical power specifies the rate of consumption of electrical energy by a device.
The SI unit of electrical energy is
Joules. But electrical power is
measured in Watts (or KWh).
b) Resistance and
power are inversely proportional to each other. So, lamp powered 40 W has more resistance than a 60 W lamp.
c) Commercial unit of
electric energy is kilowatt hour(kWh).

atoms and write its structure.
Ans:
OR
Explain the
mechanism of cleaning action of soap.
Ans:
Soaps and detergents contain two parts. A long hydrocarbon
part which is hydrophobic (water repelling) in nature and a short ionic part
which is hydrophillic (water attracting) in nature. The hydrocarbon part of the
soap molecule links itself to the oily (dirt) drop and ionic end orients itself
towards water and forms a spherical structure called micelles. The soap
micelles helps in dissolving the dirt in water and wash our clothes.
(21) Draw the diagram of reaction of Zinc
granules with dil H2So4 and testing hydrogen gas by burning
Ans:
(22) Dry
hydrogen chloride gas does not turn blue litmus where as hydrochloric acid why?
Ans:
Acidity is due
to the ability of giving H+ ion. Dry hydrogen chloride does not give hydrogen ions
and so it does not act
as an acid and does not turn blue litmus red.

OR
Why micelle
does form when soap is added to water?
Ans:
Soap molecule has two ends. One end is hydrophilic and
another end is hydrophobic. When soap is dissolved in water and clothes are put
in the soapy solution, soap moleucles converge in a typical fashion to make a
structure, called miceele. The hydrophobic ends of different molecules surroound
a particle of grease and make the micelle, which is a spherical structure. In
this, the hydrophilic end is outside the sphere and hydrophobic end is towards
the centre of the sphere. This is why micelle formation takes place when soap
is added to water.

(38) (a)
What are the components of the transport system in human beings what are
functions of these components ?
(b) How are
waste material excreted in plants ?
Ans:
a)
The main components of the transport system in human beings
are the heart, blood, and blood vessels.
·
Heart pumps oxygenated blood throughout the body. It
receives deoxygenated blood from the various body parts and sends this impure
blood to the lungs for oxygenation.
·
Blood is a fluid connective tissue, it helps in the
transport of oxygen, nutrients, CO2, and nitrogenous wastes.
·
Blood vessels (arteries, veins, and capillaries) carry
blood either away from the heart to various organs or from various organs back
to the heart.
b)
- Plants
produce two gaseous waste products i.e. oxygen during photosynthesis and
carbon dioxide during respiration. Excretion of gaseous waste in plants
takes place through stomatal pores on leaves..
- Excess
of water is also excreted from the plant body through the stomatal pores
and from the surfaces of fruits and stems.
- The
gums, oils, latex, resins, etc. are some waste products stored in plant
parts like barks, stems, leaves, etc. Eventually, plants shed off these
parts.
