1340/1000 = 1.340 km
Ans. Each side = 5 x 10 = 50mm (All sides of square are equal)
Ans. The fixed quantity with which we compare an unknown quantity is called unit.
Q14. When object is said to be in rest?
Ans. If the position of an object does not change with time, it is said to be at rest.
Q15. What do you understand by ‘measurement’?
Ans. Measurement means the comparison of some unknown quantity with a known fixed quantity of same kind.
Q16. What is the common in between hand span, pace, angul and fist?
Ans. All of these are non-standard units of measurement that changes from person to person.
Q17. When object is said to be in motion?
Ans. When an object changes its position with time with respect to another object, it is said to be in motion.
Q18. Why is the hand span not considered as a reliable unit for measuring the length?
Ans. Hand span is not considered as a reliable unit for measuring the length because length of hand span varies from person to person.
Q19. What do you understand by standard unit of measurement?
Ans.The unit which is acceptable to the majority of people as a basic unit of measurement is called standard unit of measurement.
Assertion and Reason Questions
Q20. Assertion (A): Motion of moon around the earth is a circular motion.
Reason (R): In a circular motion, the distance of object from a fixed point remains the same.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.
Ans. (a)
Q21. Assertion (A): In ancient times bullock cart was used as a means of transport.
Reason (R): Aeroplanes were developed only in 1800 AD.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.
Ans. (c)
Q22. Assertion (A): The motion of a ball rolling on the ground is nothing but a rectilinear motion.
Reason (R): The motion of ball rolling on the ground is a combination of different types of motion.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.
Ans. (d)
Q23. Assertion (A): If an object travels in such a way that it comes back to the starting position, then the displacement is zero but, the distance travelled is not zero.
Reason (R): The displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final position of the body whereas, distance is the actual path length covered by an object.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.
Ans. (a)
Q24. Assertion (A): While measuring the length, the eye of the observer should be exactly above that point of measurement to avoid the parallax error.
Reason (R): The scale used to measure the length of the object must be greater than the length of the object.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.
Ans. (c)
