    1. Work Done By A Constant Force
    • Work is a scalar quantity equal to the product of the displacement x and the

    component of the force Fx in the direction of the displacement..

    • Work is defined as a force acting upon an object to cause a displacement
    • Mathematically, work can be expressed by the following equation.
    • W= F x d cos q ( cos 00 = 1)
    • where F = force, d = displacement, and the angle (theta) is defined as the angle between the force and the displacement vector
    • Three things are necessary for the performance of work:
    • There must be an applied force F.
    • There must be a displacement x.
    • The force must have a component along the displacement

    Negative Work

    Force F contributes to displacement x.

    Test Yourself:

    1. Calculate Work when F= 40 N and x = 4 m.
    2. Calculate Work when F = -10 N and x = 4 m.
    3. A lawn mower is pushed a horizontal distance of 20 m by a force of 200 N directed at an angle of 300 with the ground. What is the work of this force?
    4. A student lifts a 50 pound (lb) ball 4 feet (ft) in 5 seconds (s). How many joules of work has the student completed?

    2.Energy And Its Forms

    James Joule

    The metric system unit of energy is the joule (J), after James Joule.

    • Mechanical energy is the energy which is possessed by an object due to its motion or its stored energy of position

    Forms of Energy

    • Kinetic energy : is the energy of motion

    Energy which a body possesses because of its motion, which occurs anywhere from an atomic level to that of a whole organism

    Examples of Kinetic Energy: This is not an all-inclusive list.

    • Electrical – The movement of atoms
    • Electromagnetic or Radiant – The movement of waves
    • Thermal or Heat – The movement of molecules
    • Motion – The movement of objects
    • Sound – The movement through waves

    Engineers generally refer to thermal/heat energy as “internal energy” and use “kinetic energy” strictly in reference to motion.

    Potential Energy (Stored energy or gravitational energy)

    • The capacity to do work by virtue of position or configuration
    • an object can store energy as the result of its position or elastic source
    • Potential Energy is maximum at the maximum HEIGHT

    Energy transformation involves the conversion of one form of energy into another form. Examples of energy transformation include:

    • Chemical – Food is consumed and converted into motion for playing sports or taking a test.
    • Radiant – Sunlight is consumed by plants and converted into energy for growth.
    • Electrical – Energy transferred to an oven is converted to thermal energy for heating our food.

    Now you know the basic forms of energy. The next question is “What are the energy sources?”

    There are renewable and nonrenewable sources of energy. A renewable energy source is a form of energy that is constantly and rapidly replenished by natural processes. Examples of renewable energy sources include:

    • Biomass – The use of a living or once living organism as fuel
    • Hydropower – The energy produced from the movement of water
    • Geothermal – The use of heat from within the Earth or from the atmosphere

    near oceans to warm houses or other buildings

    • Wind – The use of wind to generate electricity

    Solar – The use of the sun as a source of heat; for instance, to heat a room within a house, etc.

    Energy Conversion Examples

    Fossil fuels Chemical -> Heat -> Mechanical -> Electrical Solar cells Sunlight -> Electrical Wind turbines Kinetic ^ Mechanical -> Electrical Hydroelectric Gravitational potential -> Mechanical -> Electrical Nuclear Nuclear -> Heat -> Mechanical -> Electrical Vehicle System Conversion

    Test Yourself

    1. How much potential energy is lost by a 5Kg object to kinetic energy due a decrease in height of 4.5 m.
    2. Potential energy of an object at a height

    An object increases its energy when raised through a height.

    The potential energy of an object at a height depends on the ground level or the zero level

    1. Law Of Conservation Of Energy

    The principle of Conservation of Mechanical Energy

    The total mechanical energy (E=KE+PE) of an object remains constant as the object moves, provided that the net work done by external non-conservative forces is zero, Wnc=0J Total mechanical energy: the sum of kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy E = KE + PE

    Wnc = (KEf – KE0) + (PEf – PE0)

    Wnc = (KEf + PEf) – (KE0 + PE0)

    Wnc = Ef – E0

    Ef = KEf + PEf) E0 = KE0 + PE0

    1. Rate of Doing Work & Commercial Unit Of Energy POWER

    Rate at which work is performed or energy is expended

    t

    Watt is the base unit of Power

    One watt is equal to 1 joule of work per second

    Types of Power

    • Electrical Power

    Uses electrical energy to do work

    • Mechanical Power

    Uses mechanical energy to do work (linear, rotary)

    • Fluid Power

    Uses energy transferred by liquids (hydraulic) and gases (pneumatic)

    • Power is the rate that we use energy.
    • Power = Work or Energy / Time
    • P = W/t = F x d/t = F v
    • The unit joule is too small .The bigger unit of energy called kilowatt hour (kW h) 1 kW h is the energy used in one hour

    at the rate of 1000 J s-1 (or 1 kW).

    1 kW h = 1 kW *1 h = 1000 W*3600 s = 3600000 J 1 kW h = 3.6 x 106 J.

    Test Yourself

    1. A 5 Kg Cart is pushed by a 30 N force against friction for a distance of 10m in 5 seconds. Determine the Power needed to move the cart.
    2. A student lifts a 50.0 pound (lb) ball 4.00 feet (ft) in 5 .00seconds (s). How many watts of power are used to lift the ball?

    Important Points for Work Problems:

    • Always draw a free-body diagram, choosing the positive x-axis in the same direction as the displacement.
    • Work is negative if a component of the force is opposite displacement direction
    • Work done by any force that is at right angles with displacement will be zero (0).
    • For resultant work, you can add the works of each force, or multiply the resultant force times the net displacement.
    • Energy is the ability to move
    • Potential is stored energy (Statics)
    • Dependant on height
    • Kinetic is moving energy (Dynamics)
    • Dependant on velocity
    • Springs store energy dependant on distance and constant

    Gravity is one of the most basic forces in the universe. It plays a fundamental role not only in the structure of our solar system but also in the way objects behave on Earth. In this section, we will talk about gravity on a small scale. We will discuss topics such as weight, free fall, and ballistics. We will learn the physics of phenomena we experience daily and take for granted

    1.Gravitation

    Gravitation is the force of attraction between two objects in the universe.

    Gravitation may be the attraction of objects by the earth.

    This force is proportional to the product of masses of the objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. It is independent of medium.

    _ , , GMm

    Gravitational force = ——

    rz

    Eg If a body is dropped from a certain height, it falls downwards due to earth’s gravity.

    If a body is thrown upwards, it reaches a certain height and then falls downwards due to the earth’s gravity.

    • Gravitation may be the attraction between objects in outer space.

    Eg :- Attraction between the earth and moon.

    Attraction between the sun and planets.


    GRAVITY

    • A natural force that pulls all objects toward the center of the earth
    • keeps the moon orbiting
    • It holds stars together . . .
    • And binds galaxies together for billions of years ….Prevents Planets from losing their atmospheres.

    Test yourself:

    1. When we move from the poles to the equator. Hence, the value of g decreases. Why?
    2. What is the difference between gravity and gravitation?

    2.Universal law of gravitation: – “Inverse square law”- All bits of matter attract all other bits of matter

    • The universal law of gravitation states that, ‘Every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force which is directly proportional to product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.’
    • The strength of the gravitational attraction between two objects depends on two factors:

    • The SI unit of G is N m2 kg -2 and its value is 6.673 x 10-11 N m2 kg -2
    • How big the objects are (how much mass they have) and
    • How far apart they are.

    Test Yourself

    1. What is the difference between gravity and gravitation?
    2. What does it mean to say that the Force of gravity is proportional to the masses

    of the bodies, and inversely proportional to the distance between them?


    3. Free Fall

    • With negligible air resistance, falling objects can be considered freely falling. objects of different shapes accelerate differently (stone vs feather)

    Test Yourself

    1. A coin and a feather are dropped from the roof of a building. Which one will fall to the ground first

    4 .To calculate the value of” g “(acceleration due to gravity)

    • The acceleration due to gravity is denoted by g.
    • The unit of g is same as the unit of acceleration ms -2
    • From the second law of motion, force is the product of mass and acceleration.

    F = ma

    • For free fall, force is the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

    GMm

    F = mg or mg = =

    GM

    or g = — where M is the mass of the

    Earth and d is the distance between the object and the earth.

    • For objects near or on the surface of the earth d is equal to the radius of the earth R

    GMm

    • F = mg or mg = =

    GM

    • or g = —

    Test Yourself

    1. Calculate the value of g on the surface of earth.
    2. What is the difference between “weight” and “mass”?
    3. Mass and Weight:
    • Mass is a fundamental, universal property. You have the same amount of mass no matter where you are in the Universe.
    • Weight is not fundamental its value depends on circumstances in the Universe. Weight is a force. It is the resultant gravitational force exerted on a body with mass m by all the other bodies on the Universe.

    Weight = Fg = G m Me / R2 = mg where Me is the mass of the Earth and R is the radius of the Earth.

    Test Yourself

    1. An astronaut has 80 kg mass on earth (a)what is his weight on earth? (b) What

    will be his mass and weight on mars where g=3.7 m/s2

    1. When you put an object on a spring balance, do you get the mass of an object or its weight?

    2. Weight Of The Object On Moon
    • The mass of the moon is less than the mass of the earth. So the moon exerts lesser force on the objects than the earth.
    • The weight of an object on the moon is one sixth (1/6th) of its weight on the earth.
    • The weight of an object on the earth is the force with which the earth attracts the

    object and the weight of an object on the moon is the force with which the moon attracts the object.

    Celestial body Mass (kg) Radius (m)
    Earth 5.98 x 1024 6.37 x 106
    Moon 7.36 x 1022 1.74 x 106

    Test Yourself

    1. What will be the weight of the body on the moon whose mass is12 kg?

    2. Thrust & Pressure
    • Thrust is the force acting on an object perpendicular to the surface.
    • Pressure is the force acting on unit area of a surface

    Thrust

    Pressure =

    Area

    • The SI unit of thrust is N/m2 or N m-2 . It is called Pascal (Pa).
    1. Pressure In Fluids
    • . Fluids exert pressure in all directions
    • Pressure exerted on fluids is transmitted equally in all directions.
    1. Buoyancy

    When an object is immersed in a fluid it experiences an upward force called buoyant force. This property is called buoyancy or upthrust.

    1. Why objects float or sink when placed on the surface of water?
    • Take some water in a beaker. Take a piece of cork and an iron nail of the same mass. Place them on the water. The cork floats and the nail sinks.
    • If the density of an object is less than the density of a liquid, it will float on the liquid and if the density of an object is more than the density of a liquid, it will sink in the liquid.
    1. Archeimedes Principle
    • Archimedes’ principle states that, When a body is partially or fully immersed in a fluid it experiences an upward force that is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by it.’


    12 .Relative density

    • The relative density of a substance is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water. It is a ratio of similar quantities and has no unit.

    2 Laws of Motion *****
    3 Inertia and Mass *****
    4 Conservation of Momentum ****




    The Effect of Mass

    A force applied to an automobile will not have the same effect as the same force applied to a pencil. An automobile resists accelerating much more than a pencil does, because it has more inertia, or mass.

    The acceleration of an object depends not only on how hard you push on it, but also on how much the object resists being pushed.

    What is the effect of mass on acceleration? This, too, turns out to be quite simple (I wonder why…). For the same force, an object with twice the mass will have half the acceleration. If it had three times the mass, the same force will produce one-third the acceleration. Four times the mass gives one-fourth of the acceleration, and so on.

    This type of relationship between quantities (double one, get half the other) is called an inverse proportion or inverse variation. In other words, then:

    Newton’s Second Law of Motion The acceleration of an object is dependent upon both force and mass. Thus, if the colliding objects have unequal mass, they will have unequal accelerations as a result of the contact force which results during the collision.

    Newton’s Third Law Newton’s Third Law is stated as:

    For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

    “action…reaction” means that forces always occur in pairs. (Forces are interactions between objects, like conversations are interactions between people.)

    Single, isolated forces never happen. The two forces involved are called the “action force” and the “reaction force.”

    These names are unfortunate for a couple of reasons :

    Either force in an interaction can be the “action” force or the “reaction” force

    The action and reaction forces exist at the same time.

    “equal” means

    Both forces are exactly the same size. They are equal in magnitude.

    Both forces exist at exactly the same time. They both start at exactly the same instant, and they both stop at exactly the same instant. They are equal in time.

    “opposite” means that the two forces always act in opposite directions – exactly 180o apart.

    Newton’s third law of motion In every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the force on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object. The direction of the force on the first object is opposite to the direction of the force on the second object. Forces always come in pairs – equal and opposite action- reaction force pairs.

    Newton’s third law of motion applied to collisions between two objects. In a collision between two objects, both objects experience forces which are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. Such forces cause one object to speed up (gain momentum) and the other object to slow down (lose momentum). According to Newton’s third law, the forces on the two objects are equal in magnitude.

    Test Yourself

    1. Can action reaction balance each other?
    2. What does a force do?

    3. Inertia and Mass

    Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion. An object will continue to move at the same speed in the same direction

    unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Inertia & Mass Inertia & Mass of a bowling ball rolled down the road would eventually come to a stop. Friction is an unbalanced force that causes the ball to stop or slow down. Without friction, the ball would keep going.

    Inertia & Mass of a bowling ball and a tennis ball have the same inertia. Inertia & Mass If you had a tennis racket and I threw tennis ball at you, what would happen? If you had a tennis racket and I threw a bowling ball at you, what would happen? Why could you change the motion of the tennis ball but not the motion of the bowling ball?

    Mass is the amount of matter in an object. A bowling ball has more mass than a tennis ball. The greater the mass of an object the greater its inertia. Mass is the measurement of inertia.

    Test Yourself

    1. Why do we fall forward if we alight from a moving bus?
    2. Why does an athlete run for some distance before long jump?
    3. Conservation of Momentum

    Law of Conservation of Momentum

    In a closed system, the vector sum of the momenta before and after an impact must be equal.

    1 Motion (Uniform Motion And Non Uniform Motion, Acceleration and Velocity)

    • A particle is a point-like object, has mass but infinitesimal size
    • The object’s position is its location with respect to a chosen reference point, In the diagram, the road sign the reference point
    • Motion occurs when an object changes its position.

    Both Distance and Time are important in describing motion.

    • Sometimes you know motion has occurred even if you didn’t see it happen. (mail truck)
    • Relative motion: when two objects are moving in a plane (either in same direction or opposite) each have relative motion with respect to second. e.g. a person sitting in a train and watching a tree, in this case tree is stable but is assumed to be moving but with respect to train.

    Distance vs. Displacement

    • Distance: How far an object has moved. It has only magnitude without direction. (total)
    • Displacement: How far and in what direction an object has moved from its start position. i.e. the direct distance between two points.

    Speed

    • Speed = the distance an object travels in a given amount of time

    . distance

    • Speed =

    time

    Types of Speed

    • Constant speed: speed doesn’t change (set your car on cruise control)
    • Changing speed: Riding a bike for 5 km. Take off and increase speed, slow

    down up hill, speed up down hill, stop for stop sign. The trip took you 15 min

    (.25 h)

    . total distance

    • Average speed:

    c total time

    • Instantaneous speed: speed at any given time.

    Velocity

    • Velocity: includes speed and DIRECTION
    • Storm is moving at 20km/hr.
    • Should you be seeking shelter?
    • Suppose two trains are going with the same speed in opposite direction so they are having different velocities.
    • Race car going around an oval track might have constant speed, but different velocities at each point.

    Acceleration

    • Any change in velocity over a period of time is called acceleration.
    • The sign (+ or -) of indicates its direction. + sign shows the acceleration and – sign shows de-acceleration.
    • Uniform (constant) acceleration equation
    • a = v/t
    • Images of car are equally spaced.
    • The car is moving with constant positive velocity (shown by red arrows maintaining the same size) .
    • The acceleration equals to zero
    • Images of car become farther apart as time increases
    • Velocity and acceleration are in the same direction
    • Acceleration is uniform (Arrows below the car maintain the same length)
    • Velocity is increasing (Arrows above the car are getting longer)
    • This shows positive acceleration and positive velocity

    Galileo Galilei Italian physicist and astronomer

    Formulated laws of motion for objects in free fall

    • A freely falling object is any object moving freely under the influence of gravity

    alone.

    • It does not depend upon the initial motion of the object
    • Dropped – released from rest
    • Thrown downward
    • Thrown upward
    • The acceleration of an object in free fall is directed downward, regardless of the initial motion
    • The magnitude of free fall acceleration (gravitational acceleration) is g = 9.80 m/s2
    • g decreases with increasing altitude
    • g varies with latitude, height and depth from earth surface.
    • 9.80 m/s2 is the average at the Earth’s surface
    • The italicized g will be used for the acceleration due to gravity
    • Not to be confused with g for grams

    With negligible air resistance, falling objects can be considered freely falling. objects of different shapes accelerate differently (stone vs feather)

    Speed both upward and downward

    Test Yourself:

    1. Give the equation for uniform motion.
    2. When a car stops after applying brakes, what is the final velocity?
    3. Uniform Circular Motion

    In this kind of motion the object moves on circle with fix speed but the direction is changed by the time so the velocity of the change so its called acceleration motion. This acceleration is called centrifugal acceleration. It is directed toward the centre.

    Chapter 7: “Diversity in Living Organisms”

    KEY CONCEPTS : [ *rating as per the significance of concept]

    CONCEPTS RATING
    Basis of classification ***
    Hierarchy of classification ****
    Kingdom Plantae *****
    Kingdom Animalia *****
    1. Each organism is different from all other organisms.
    2. In this activity, we decide which characteristics (we can run, but the Banyan tree can’t run is a characteristic) are important in forming the desired category.
    3. Greek thinker Aristotle classified animals according to whether they lived on land, in water or in air. This classification is a landmark in ideology, but has limitations. For example, animals that live in the sea include Corals, Whales, Octopus, Starfish, and Shark. In fact they are different from each other.
    4. Classification and Evolution: organisms are classified based on body design, hierarchy in developing, relation to evolution. Charles Darwin first described the idea of evolution in 1859 in his book ” The Origin of Species”
    5. The Biologists, such as Haeckel, Whittaker & Carl Woese tried to classify all living organisms into broad Kingdoms. The Whittaker proposed five kingdoms: Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae and Animalia. Carl Woese introduced by dividing Monera into Archaebacteria and Eubacteria.

    1. Monera: They have unicellular, Prokaryotic organisms (do not have defined nucleus or organelles). The cell wall may or may not present. The mode of nutrition is autotrophic (synthesizing food on their own) (or)heterotrophic (getting food from environment). Ex. Bacteria, Anabaena. ( (Please refer to Fig. 7.1 Monera NCERT Book Page-83)
    2. Protista: They have unicellular eukaryotic organisms (do have well defined nucleus or organelles). The body is covered by cilia, flagella for locomotion. The mode of nutrition is autotrophicorheterotrophic. Ex. Diatoms, protozoans.(Please refer to Fig. 7.2 NCERT Book Page-84)
    3. Fungi: These are multi-cellular eukaryotic organisms with cell wall, made up of Chitin. They do not perform Photosynthesis (heterotrophic), Saprophytic (derive nutrition from decaying material). Ex. Aspergillus, Penicillium, Mushroom, Rhizopus. The fungi living with algae forms Lichen (Symbiotic Association) .(Please refer to Fig. 7.3 NCERT Book Page-84).
    4. Plantae: These are multi-cellular eukaryotic organisms with cell wall, made up of Cellulose. Able to perform photosynthesis (autotrophic). Ex. Rice, wheat.
    5. Animalia: These are multi-cellular eukaryotic organisms without cell wall. They are not able to perform photosynthesis (heterotrophic). Ex Human beings, Peacock.

    (Please refer to Fig. 7.4 NCERT Book Page-85).

    4. Pteridophyta: These are commonly called as the “First vascular land plants “. The plant body is differentiated into root, stem and leaf. Specialized tissues for the conduction of water and food are developed in these plants. The reproductive organs are inconspicuous. Ex. Marsilea, Fern. (Please refer to Fig. 7.7 NCERT Book Page-87).

    Special Note: The reproductive organs are inconspicuous in Thallophyta, Bryophyta, Pteridophyta are can’t develop seeds. They are together called as” Cryptogamae (NonFlowering Plants)”. The plants with well differentiated reproductive organs and that ultimately make seeds are called” Phanerogams (Flowering Plants)”. This group is further classified Gymnosperms (Bear naked Seeds) &Angiosperms (Bears seeds inside Fruit).

    1. Gymnosperms: These are commonly called as “Naked seed bearing plants”. They areusually perennial, evergreen and woody. Ex. Pinus, Cycas (Please refer to Fig. 7.8 NCERT Book Page-87).
    2. Angiosperms: These are commonly called as “Enclosed seed bearing plants”. Plants with seeds having a single cotyledon are called as” Monocotyledons or Monocots”. Plants with seeds having two cotyledons are called as “Dicots”. Ex. Ipomoea, Paphiopedium.

    DETAILS OF NOMENCLATURE

    NOMENCLATURE: The system of scientific naming or nomenclature was introduced by Carolus Linnaeus. It is unique to identify in the world. We limit ourselves to writing the names of the Genus and Species of that particular organism. The world over, it has been agreed that both these names will be used in Latin forms.When printed is given in italics and when written by hand, the Genus and Species name have to be underlined separately. Ex. Ostrich (Common name): Struthiocamelus(scientific name with two parts namely the Genus and Species).

    Meristems in plants

    **

    Permanent tissues in plants

    ****

    Animal tissues

    *****

    1. Tissue is a group of cells having similar origin, structure& function. Study of tissues is called Histology
    2. In unicellular organism (Amoeba) single cell performs all basic functions, whereas in multi-cellular organisms (Plants and Animals) shows division of labor as Plant tissue & Animal tissues.
    3. Plant tissues are two types: Meristems & Permanent tissues.
    4. Meristems: The Meristems are the tissues having the power of cell division. It is found on those region of the plant which grows.
    5. Types of Meristems;
    6. The Apical meristems – It is present at the growing tip of the stem and roots and increases the length.
    7. The lateral meristems – present at the lateral side of stem anf root (cambium) and increases the girth.
    8. The intercalary meristems – present at internodes or base of the leaves and increases the length between the nodes.

    ( Please refer to Fig. 6.2: location of meristems in plant body , NCERT Book Page- 69).

    26. Permanent tissues: Two types such as Simple permanent tissues & Complex permanent tissues.

    1. Simple permanent tissues: subdivided as

    (i): Parenchyma: Tissues provide the support to plants.They are loosly packed and has large intracellular space.

    • Parenchyma with chlorophyll which performs photosynthesis is called as chlorenchyma.
    • The parenchyma with large air spaces to give buoyancy is called as aerenchyma .Parenchyma also stores food and water.
    1. Collenchyma: Tissue provides mechanical support, thickened at the corners, have very little intercellular space. It allows easy bending of various parts of a plants without breaking
    2. Sclerenchyma: Tissue makes the plant hard and stiff, thickened due to lignin and no intercellular space. Cells of this tissue are dead and commonly seen in the husk of coconut.

    (iv) Guard cells& Epidermal tissue: the tissue aids in protection and exchange of gases. Guard cells kidney shaped in dicots, dumb bell shaped in monocots to guard the stomata. The epidermal tissues of roots aid in absorption of water and minerals. The epidermal tissues in desert plants have a thick waxy coating of Cutin with waterproof quality. The epidermal tissues form the several layer thick Cork or the Bark of the tree. (Please refer to Fig. 6.3- 6.6, NCERTBook Page-70-73).

    1. Complex permanent tissues: The complex tissues are made of more than one type of cells. All these cells coordinate to perform a common function.

    They are subdivided as;

    Xylem: It consists of tracheids, vessels, xylem parenchyma and xylem fibers. The cells have thick walls,

    Function – aids in conduction of water and minerals.

    Phloem: It consists of sieve tubes, companion cells, phloem parenchyma, and phloem fibers.

    Function – Phloem transports food material to other parts of the plants.

    (Please refer to Fig. 6.7, NCERT Book Page-73).

    1. Animal tissues: Sub divided as epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscular tissue and nervous tissue.
    2. Epithelial tissue: It is a protective covering forming a continuous sheet. Simple epithelium is the one which is extremely thin in one layer, whereas stratified epithelium are arranged in pattern of layers.

    Depending on shape and function they are classified as:

    1. Squamous epithelium in the lining of mouth and esophagus.
    2. Cuboidal epithelium in the lining of kidney tubules and salivary glands.
    3. Columnar epithelium in the intestine &Columnar epithelium with cilia in the lining of respiratory tract.
    4. Glandular epithelium in the Glands aids in a special function as gland cells, which can secrete at the epithelial surface.

    (Please refer to Fig. 6.9, NCERT Book Page-75). ii) Connective Tissue: Five Types, such as;

    1. Blood: The Blood is a fluid connective tissue. Blood plasma has RBCs (Red Blood Cells) WBCs (White Blood Cells) and platelets. Blood plasma contains proteins, salts and hormones. Blood flows and transports gases, digested food, hormones and waste materials.
    2. Bone: The bone is a connective tissue with hard matrix, composed of calcium and phosphorus. A bone is connected by another bone with another connective tissue called ligaments. A bone is connected by muscle with another connective tissue called tendon.
    3. Cartilage: The cartilage is a connective tissue with solid matrix composed of proteins and sugars. It is commonly seen in nose, ear, trachea, and larynx.
    4. Areolar Connective Tissue: It is found between the skin and muscles, around the blood vessels. It supports internal organs and aids in repair of tissues.
    5. Adipose Connective Tissue: It is filled with fat globules for the storage of fat.

    It acts as insulator. (Please refer to Fig. 6.10, NCERT Book Page-76).

    Muscular tissues: They have special contractile proteins responsible for movements. Three types, such as;

    Striated muscles/skeletal muscles/voluntary muscles :

    They are cylindrical, un-branched and multinucleated.They have dark bands and light bands. Unstriated muscles/smooth muscles/involuntary muscles:

    They are commonly called as Smooth muscles, having no striations (dark bands/ light bands are absent). Commonly found alimentary canal, uterus, Iris of an Eye. They are spindle shaped. Involuntary in nature

    Cardiac Muscles: They are commonly called as Heart muscles, cylindrical, branched and uni-nucleate. Involuntary in nature.(Please refer to Fig. 6.11, NCERT Book Page-77).

    Nervous Tissue: The tissue responds to stimuli. The brain, spinal cord and nerves are composed of nervous tissue or neurons. A neuron consists of Cell Body, cytoplasm, Nucleus, Dendrite, Axon, nerve ending. The neuron impulse allow us to move our muscles when we want to respond to stimuli. (Please refer to Fig. 6.12, NCERT Book Page-78).

    1. All the living organisms are made up of fundamental unit of life called” cell”.
    2. The cell is a Latin word for “a little room”.
    3. The scientist Robert Hooke saw a little room in the cork (the bark of a tree) resembled the structure of a honeycomb. The use of the word “Cell” to describe these units is used till this day in Biology as” Cell Biology”.
    4. The Compound Microscope consist eye piece,objective lens and condenser to observe a cell after putting a drop of Safranin (for plant cell) and methylene blue (for animal cell). ( Please refer to Fig. 5.1: Compound Microscope NCERT Book Page-57)
    5. The scientist Leeuwenhoek saw free living cells in the pond water for the first time. ( father of microbiology)
    6. The scientist Robert Brown discovered the nucleus in the cell.
    7. The cell theory states that all the plants and animals are composed of cells, it was proposed by Schleiden and Schwann.
    8. The cell theory was further expanded by Virchow by suggesting that “all cells arise from the pre-existing cells”.
    9. The cells differ in size, shape, structure (Please refer to Fig. 5.2/5.3: Onion peel/Various cells in Human body, NCERT Book Page-57/58):Types of cells: Onion cells, Smooth muscle cell, Blood cells, Bone cell, Fat cell, Nerve cell, Ovum, Sperm etc. Each kind of cell performs specific function.
    10. A single cell may constitute a whole organism as in Amoeba, Chlamydomonas, Paramecium and Bacteria; these are called as unicellular organisms. Whereas in multi-cellular organisms (Human beings) division of labor is seen.
    11. The feature in almost every cell is same: Plasma membrane, nucleus and cytoplasm.
    12. Plasma membrane: It is the outermost covering of the cell.
    • It is called as selective permeable membrane (because it prevents movement of some materials).
    • It helps in diffusion and osmosis
    • Diffusion: movement of substance from high concentration to low

    concentration.

    Eg; exchange of carbon dioxide or oxygen with external environment.

    osmosis: it is the passage of water from the region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration through a selective permeable membrane.

    1. The cell gains water, if the medium surrounding the cell has a higher water concentration (Hypotonic solution) than the cell.
    2. The cell maintains the same water concentration as the cell (Isotonic solution), water crosses the cell membrane in both directions.
    3. The cell loses water, if the medium has lower water concentration (Hypertonic solution) than the cell.

    Note – The cell drinking is endosmosis;

    • omission of water is called ex-osmosis.

    ENDOCYTOSIS EXOCYTOSIS

    1. The cell engulfs food is called endocytosis and ejects solid is called exocytosis. Amoeba acquires food through endocytosis and excretion of solid is called exocytosis.
    2. The cell wall is a rigid outer covering composed of cellulose. It provides structural strength to plant cells. When a living cell loses water, there is shrinkage of contents of a cell away from the cell wall. This phenomenon is called as plasmolysis. The cell walls permit the cells of plants, fungi and bacteria to withstand very dilute (Hypotonic) external media without bursting.
    3. The Nucleus: It is a dark colored, spherical or oval, dot-like structure near the center of a cell called Nucleus. The nucleus plays a central role in cellular activities/ reproduction. The chromatin material gets organized into chromosomes. The chromosomes contain information for inheritance of features from parents to next generations in the form of DNA( Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid ) and protein molecules. The functional segments of DNA are called genes.
    4. In some organisms like Bacteria nucleus is not covered by nuclear membrane. Hence it is called as prokaryote. (Pro= primitive; karyote = karyon = nucleus.) The organisms with cells having a nuclear membrane are called eukaryotes.
    5. Differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes( Please refer to Fig. 5.4: Prokaryotic cell NCERT Book Page-62)

    Prokaryotes

    Eukaryotes

    Size: generally small (1-10 |am)

    Size: generally large. (5-500 |am)

    Nuclear region: Not well defined and not surrounded by a nuclear membrane & known as nucleoids.

    Nuclear region: Well defined and surrounded by a nuclear membrane

    Chromosome: Single

    Chromosome: More than one chromosome

    Membrane-bound cell organelles absent

    Membrane-bound cell organelles present

    Eg- bacteria, blue green algae

    Eg fungi, plant cell and animal cell.

    1. Cell organelles: Every cell has fluid matrix (other than nucleus) is called cytoplasm. The nucleus and cytoplasm is together called as protoplasm. The protoplasm term was coined by Purkinje. It has important cell organelles: Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), Golgi apparatus, Lysosomes, Mitochondria, Plastids, and vacuoles.
    2. Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER): It is a large network of membrane -bound tubules and vesicles.
    • There are two types of Endoplasmic Reticulum
    • Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) (It looks rough because Ribosomes are attached to its surface. They are the sites of protein synthesis).
    • Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER) (It looks smooth because Ribosomes are not attached to its surface. They are the sites of fat molecules synthesis).
    1. SER ; help in the functioning of enzymes and hormones to carryout biochemical activities.
    2. SER detoxifies many poisons and drugs from the cell.
    3. ER serves as channel for the transport of material between various regions of the cytoplasm and the nucleus.
    4. Proteins and fat molecules produced by ER helps in membrane biogenesis.
    5. Golgi apparatus: It was first described by a scientist Camillo Golgi. It is a system of membrane bound vesicles called cisterns. It functions include the storage,

    modification and package of cell products. The complex sugars are made from simple sugars in the Golgi apparatus. It is also involved in the formation of lysosomes.

    1. Lysosomes: They contain membrane-bound sacs with powerful digestive enzymes (enzymes are made by RER) to digest the worn-out cell organelles. When the cell gets damaged, lysosomes may burst and the enzymes digest their own cell, hence called as “Suicidal bags of a cell”. It is a waste disposal system of the cell.
    2. Mitochondria: It is covered by a double membrane. Outer membrane is very porous and the inner membrane is deeply folded. These folds create a large surface area for ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) molecule synthesis. ATP is the energy currency of a cell; hence the Mitochondria are called as Power House of a Cell. Mitochondria have their own DNA and Ribosomes; therefore they can make their own proteins.
    3. Plastids: They are present only in plant cells. They are two types.
    4. Chromoplasts (Colored Plastids: Chloroplasts – Green pigmented and useful in Photosynthesis and also contains various other pigments like yellow or orange)
    5. Leucoplasts (White or colorless plastids; stores materials such as oils, proteins, fats etc. ) Plastids are also covered by a double membrane. The matrix is called Stroma, seat for enzymatic actions. Plastids have their own DNA and Ribosomes; therefore they can make their own proteins.
    6. Vacuoles: Storage sacs for solid or liquid contents. They are small in size in animals while plants have large, may occupy 50-90 % of the cell volume. Helps to provide turgidity and rigidity to the cell. Many substances like amino acids, sugars, organic acids and proteins are stored in vacuoles. In Amoeba food vacuole is specialized to play an important role.
    7. Cell: It is the fundamental structural unit of living organisms, helps in respiration, obtaining nutrition and clearing waste material or forming a new protein.

    SURVEY ANALYSIS

    Conceptual levels of comprehension on the basis of feedback taken from the students


    • First recorded evidence that atoms existed.
    • Using his theory, Dalton rationalized the various laws of chemical combination

    Dalton’s theory was based on the premise that the atoms of different elements could be distinguished by differences in their weights.

    • Limitations

    o The indivisibility of an atom was proved wrong , for, an atom can be further subdivided into protons, neutrons and electrons. o The atoms of same element are similar in all respects , but isotopes of same element have different mass.

    Dalton’s theory was based on the premise that the atoms of different elements could be distinguished by differences in their weights.

    • An electron is a negatively charged component of an atom which exists outside the nucleus. Each electron carries one unit of negative charge and has a very small mass as compared with that of a neutron or proton.

    Effects of Electric Field on Cathode Rays

    JJ Thomson used cathode ray tubes to demonstrate that the cathode ray responds to both magnetic and electric fields.

    Since the ray was attracted to a positive electric plate placed over the cathode ray tube (beam deflected toward the positive plate) he determined that the ray must be composed of negatively charged particles.

    He called these negative particles “electrons.”

    Limitation: Model failed to explain how protons and electrons were arranged in atom so close to each other.


    Eugene Goldstein:

    • E. Goldstein in 1886 discovered the presence of new radiations in a gas discharge and called them canal rays. These rays were positively charged radiations which ultimately led to the discovery of another sub-atomic particle.
    • Used a Cathode Ray Tube to study “canal rays” which had electrical and magnetic properties opposite of an electron
    • Canal Rays: The positively charged radiation produced in the discharge tube at low pressure and high voltage are called canal rays.

    Protons:

    The canal rays have positively charged sub-atomic, particles known as protons (p).

    Q.1 What was the model of an atom proposed by Thomson? Q.2 What is the nature of charge on electrons?

    Q.3 What are canal rays ?

    Q.4 State the nature of the constituents of canal rays.


    Experiment: Rutherford took a thin gold foil and made alpha particles , [ He2+ ] positively charged Helium fall on it.

    S.No OBSERVATION INFERENCE
    1. Most of the a-particles passed through Most of the space inside the atom is
    the gold foil without getting deflected. empty.
    2. Very few particles were deflected. Positive charge of the atom occupies
    very little space.
    3. A very few alpha particles, 1 in 100000 Nucleus of an atom is very small as
    completely rebound on hitting the gold compared to the total size.
    foil.

    • Limitation: In Rutherford’s atomic model , Nucleus & electrons are held together by electrostatic force of attraction which would lead to the fusion between them. This does not happen in the atom.

    Atomic radius ~ 100 pm = 1 x 10-10 m Nuclear radius ~ 5 x 10-3 pm = 5 x 10-15 m

    • In 1932, James Chadwick proved that the atomic nucleus contained a neutral particle which had been proposed more than a decade earlier by Ernest Rutherford officially discovered the neutron in 1932,
    • Chadwick received the Nobel Prize in 1935.

    A neutron is a subatomic particle contained in the atomic nucleus. It has no net electric charge, unlike the proton’s positive electric charge.

    Q.1 Who discovered the nucleus of the atom?

    Q.2 What is the charge on alpha particles ?

    Q.3 Which observation of Rutherford’s scattering experiment established the presence large empty space in atom?

    Q.4 What is the nature of charge on nucleus of atom?

    Electron E Around the nucleus 1- 1/1840 9.11 x 10 -28
    Proton P In the nucleus 1+ 1 1.67 x 10 -24
    Neutron n In the nucleus 0 1 1.67 x 10 -24

    Protons & Neutrons collectively are known as NUCLEONS.

    Q.1 Why is the relative mass of an electron is taken as negligible ? Q.2 Give the actual masses of electron & proton in kg?

    Q.3 What are nucleons?

    1. Atomic Number & Mass Number:

    “Atomic number of an element is defined as the number of unit positive charges on the nucleus (nuclear charge) of the atom of that element or as the number of protons present in the nucleus.”

    Atomic number, Z = Number of unit positive charge on the nucleus = Total number of unit positive charges carried by all protons present in the nucleus.

    = Number of protons in the nucleus (p)

    = Number of electrons revolving in the orbits (e)

    Eg :- Hydrogen – Atomic number = 1 (1 proton)

    Helium – Atomic number = 2 (2 protons)

    Mass number[ A] : It is defined as the sum of the number of protons & neutrons present in the nucleus of an atom.

    Mass Number = Mass of protons + Mass of neutrons Eg :- Carbon – Mass number = 12 (6 protons + 6 neutrons) Mass = 12u Aluminium – Mass number = 27 (13 protons + 14 neutrons) Mass = 27u




    Main Postulates of the Bohr Model [refer NCERT Text Book article 4.3 page number-49]

    Q.1 What happens when an electron jumps from lower to higher energy level?

    Q.2 Which energy shell is nearest to the nucleus of an atom?

    Q.3 Which energy shell has higher energy L or N ?

    2 L Shell 2 x (2) 2 8 electrons
    3 M shell 2 x (3) 2 18 electrons
    4 N shell 2 x (4) 2 32 electrons

    The outermost shell of an atom cannot accommodate more than 8 electrons, even if it has a capacity to accommodate more electrons. This is a very important rule and is also called the OCTET RULE. The presence of 8 electrons in the outermost shell makes the atom very stable.

    Verification of “Law of Conservation of mass”

    l.Laws of Chemical Combination |

    A solution of sodium chloride and silver nitrate are taken separately in the two limbs of an ‘H’ shaped tube. The tube is sealed and weighed precisely. The two reactants are made to react by inverting the tube. The following reaction takes place.

    AgNO3(aq) + NaCl (aq) -> AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (aq)

    The whole tube is kept undisturbed for sometime so that the reaction is complete. When the tube is weighed again it is observed that:

    Weight before the reaction = Weight after the reaction Limitation of “Law of definite proportion”

    This law does not hold good when the compound is obtained by using different isotopes of the combining elements .

    Q.1 Why chemical reactions are in accordance with the Law of conservation of mass? Q.2 Calculate the ratio of atoms present in 5 g of magnesium and 5 g of iron.

    [Atomic mass of Mg=24 u, Fe=56 u]

    1. John Daltons Atomic Theory |

    [ for postulates ,refer NCERT text book article 3.1.2 -page no.32 ]

    Using his theory, Dalton rationalized the various laws of chemical combination which were in existence at that time. However, he assumed that the simplest compound of two elements must be binary.

    Q.1 In what respect does Dalton’s Atomic theory hold good even today?

    Q.2 Which of the following is not the postulate of Dalton’s Atomic theory of matter ?

    1. Each element is made up of extremely small particles called atoms.
    2. Atoms of a given element are identical in chemical properties but have different

    physical properties.

    1. Atoms cannot be created nor destroyed.
    2. Compounds are formed by the chemical union of atoms of two or more elements in fixed proportion .

    GRAM MOLECULAR MASS

    Gram molecular mass is the mass in grams of one mole of a molecular substance.

    Ex: The molecular mass of N2 is 28, so the gram molecular mass of N2 is 28 g.

    ATOMIC MASS UNIT

    An atomic mass unit or amu is one twelfth of the mass of an unbound atom of carbon-12. It is a unit of mass used to express atomic masses and molecular masses.

    Also Known As: Unified Atomic Mass Unit (u).

    MOLECULAR MASS : A number equal to the sum of the atomic masses of the atoms in a molecule. The molecular mass gives the mass of a molecule relative to that of the 12C atom, which is taken to have a mass of 12.

    Examples: The molecular mass of C2H6 is approximately 30 or [(2 x 12) + (6 x 1)]. Therefore the molecule is about 2.5 times as heavy as the 12C atom or about the same mass as the NO atom with a molecular mass of 30 or (14+16).

    The amount of solute present in a given amount (mass or volume) of solution.

    Amount of solute Amount of solute

    Concentration of a solution = OR

    Amount of solvent Amount of solution

    The concentration of a solution can be expressed as mass by mass percentage or as mass by volume percentage.

    Mass of solute

    Mass by mass percentage of a solution = x 100

    Mass of solution Mass of solute

    Mass by volume percentage of a solution = x 100

    Volume of solution

    lypefii^

    a) on the basis of size of solute particles:

    True solution

    Sol [ Colloid]

    Suspension

    • Homogeneous

    • Heterogeneous

    • Heterogeneous

    • Size of solute

    particles is less than

    q

    1 n m or 10 m .

    • Size of solute particles is between 1 nm to 1000 nm.

    • Size of solute particles is more than 1000 nm.

    • Particles cannot pass through filter paper.

    • Particles can pass through filter paper.

    • Particles cannot pass thorough filter paper.

    • Stable

    • Stable and settle only on centrifugation.

    • Unstable and settle down on its own.

    • Solution of sodium chloride in water, sugar & water.

    • Milk , Fog

    • muddy water, chalk & water,
    • smoke in the air.

    [ types of colloids : refer NCERT Text Book table 2.1, page 18 ]

    Colloidal solution is a heterogeneous mixture. It consists of two phases:-

    1. Dispersed phase : component present in small proportion
    2. Dispersion medium : component present in large proportion

    The particles of colloid are large enough to scatter a beam of light passing through it and make its path visible. Thus, they show Tyndall effect.

    The colloidal particles are moving at random in a zigzag motion in all directions.

    This type of zig-zag motion of colloidal particles is called Brownian movement.

    b) on the basis of amount of solute:

    Unsaturated solution

    Saturated Solution

    Supersaturated solution

    A solution which has lesser amount of solute that it can dissolve at a given temperature is known as unsaturated solution.

    A solution which has maximum amount of solute that it can dissolve at a given temperature is known as saturated solution.

    A solution which can dissolve amount of solute by increasing temperature saturated solution is known as supersaturated solution.

    c) on the basis of nature of solvent

    Aqueous solution

    Non-Aqueous solution

    The solution in which the solvent is water is known as aqueous solution.

    The solution in which the solvent is other than water (ether, alcohol or aceton) known as non-aqueous solution.

    Q.1 Classify the following substances into true solutions and colloidal solutions.

    Milk , ink , starch dissolved in water.

    1. Physical & Chemical Changes I

    Physical changes – Changes that do not result in the production of a new substance.

    • If you melt a block of ice, you still have H2O at the end of the change.
    • If you break a bottle, you still have glass.

    Examples : melting, freezing, condensing, breaking, crushing, cutting, and bending.

    Chemical changes – Changes that result in the production of another substance.

    |^.ANoysJ

    A material that has metallic properties and is composed of two or more chemical elements of which at least one is a metal .

    • These cannot be separated into their components by physical methods.
    • However, these are considered as mixture because these show the properties of its constituents and can have variable composition.

    The benefit of alloys is that you can combine metals that have varying characteristics to create an end product that is stronger, more flexible, or otherwise desirable to manufacturers.

    • Aluminium alloys are extensively used in the production of automotive engine parts.
    • Copper alloys have excellent electrical and thermal performance, good corrosion resistance, high ductility and relatively low cost.
    • Stainless steel alloys are used for many commercial applications such as watch straps, cutlery etc.
    • Titanium alloys have high strength, toughness and stiffness & are used in aerospace structures .

    Q,1 Why should we use alloys instead of pure metals? Q.2 State uses of Aluminium & Stainless steel alloys.
