2. Kathmandu lies at high altitude than Biratnagar from sea level.
Where does an object have more weight between two places? Give reasons.
Ans. The object will have more weight in
Biratnagar compared to Kathmandu. The weight of the object is directly proportional
to the value of g (w=mg). The value of ‘g’ is more in Biratnagar as it lies in a
lesser altitude compared to Kathmandu due to less radius. The weight of the object
is directly proportional to the value of g (g ∝ 1/r2).
3. In the context of Nepal, hydropower should be given more
priority rather than fossil fuels. Why? Justify with two reasons.
Ans. Hydropower is the most potential source of
energy in Nepal. Nepal is the second richest country after Brazil in
hydroelectric power potential due to its many rivers. Hydroelectricity is cheaper
in the long term. It's a renewable and pollution-free source of energy.
4. What happens if an egg is kept in two beakers containing pure
water and saturated salt solution? Why?
Ans. The egg will sink in the beaker containing
pure water but it will float in the beaker containing salt solution. This is
because pure water has less density than that of the egg so the egg cannot
displace water equal to its weight and it sinks. But salt on mixing with water
increases the density of the water and hence the up-thrust. As a result, the
egg can displace water equal to its own weight and float.

15. What is the condition for an object to sink in water? The
cross-sectional area of piston A1 and A2 is 50 cm2
and 0.2m2 respectively. How much load can lift in piston A2
if 250N force is applied on piston A1?
In order for an object to sink, it
should not be able to displace water equal to its own weight.
Solution:
Cross-sectional
area of small piston (A1) = 50cm2=0.005m2
Cross-sectional
area of large piston (A2) = 0.2m2
Force
applied on small piston A1 (F1) = 250N
Force exerted on large piston (F2) =?
According to
Pascal’s law
A1/F2=F1/A2
0.005/F2=250×0.2
Therefore,
F2=10,000N.
Therefore,
piston P2 can lift 10,000 N load in A2.
16. Prove that heat lost or gained by an object is equal to the
product of the mass of object, specific heat capacity and change in temperature.
Ans. When a hot body is cooled, it gives out heat.
As a result, the temperature of the body falls but when a cold body is heated,
it absorbs heat and its temperature rises.
It has been proved that heat gained or Lost (Q) is
directly proportional to:
I.
to the mass of
the body (m) i.e., Q∝ m... (i)
II.
change in
temperature (dt) i.e., Q∝ dt...(ii)
Combining (i) and (ii), we get,
Q∝ mdt
or,
Q= smdt (where 's’ is a constant i.e. specific heat capacity of the body)
And thus, it is proved that the amount
of heat lost or gained by a body is equal to the product of mass (m), the
Specific heat capacity (s) and change in temperature (dt) of that body.

Draw a ray diagram of an image formed when an object is placed at a distance of
10 m from a convex lens having a focal length of 20cm. Write any two nature of the image.
Calculate the power of the lens.
Ans.
i. Image is Erect and highly magnified
ii. Imafe is virtual.
Given,
Focal length(f)= 20 cm
Power(P) = ?
We know that,
Power of the lens(P)= 100/f (in cm)
P=100/f
Or, P=100/20
P=5D.
Therefore, the power of the lense is 5D.
22. Study the diagram and answer the following questions.
- Which gas is collected in the gas jar?
Ans. Carbon dioxide gas is collected in the gas jar. - Why the gas jar is kept erect?
Ans. The gas jar is kept erect as carbon dioxide is heavier than air and it is collected by upward displacement of air. - What happens when gas is reacted with potassium hydroxide? Write the balanced chemical equation.
Ans. When Carbon dioxide is reacted with potassium hydroxide, it forms potassium carbonate and water. 2KOH + CO₂ → K₂CO3 + H₂O
Mendel's law of segregation states that the hybrids obtained in F1-generation contain two contrasting characteristics
of dominant and recessive nature. These characteristics remain together in
hybrids but do not mix with one another and separate or segregate at the time
of gamete formation in such a way that each gamete gets only one
characteristic, either dominant or recessive.” The gametes of hybrid organisms get purified in successive generations.
24. Write the name of the main Chemical which destroys the ozone layer.
How is the ozone layer depleted by that chemical? Describe with Chemical equation.
Ans. The destruction of Ozone exceeds the formation of
ozone which is called ozone layer depletion. The main chemical which destroys the ozone layer is chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs).
When the CFCs come into contact with UV rays, their
individual components are freed from the whole. i. e. UV rays dissociate CFCs and
form nascent Chlorine.
CFCl3+ UV rays
→ CFCl2 + Cl
This chlorine atom reacts with the ozone (O3) molecule and
produces chlorine monoxide and an oxygen molecule.
Cl+O3→ClO+O2
Nascent Oxygen (O) dissociates ClO in to free chlorine
atom and an Oxygen molecule. In this way, the free Chlorine atom regenerates again to destroy another ozone molecule.
ClO+O.→Cl+O2
This cycle continues in the stratosphere and ozone layer depletion takes place.
