At that point, he met Chintu and he spoke to him for 5 min and reached Golu's birthday party at 7 0' clock. With what speed, did he cover the second part of the journey? Calculate his average speed for the entire journey.

29.
What devices are fitted in vehicles to record speed or distance?
30.
What is a stop watch?
31.
When does a motion become uniform or nonuniform?
1.
There were no electronic watches in earlier days. Sunset time was a little bit difficult proportion. The earliest method of measuring time was based on the position of the Sun. The Sundials were used for this purpose. Time was measured by the shadow cast by the changing position of the sun from day to night. Chinese made a water clock 6000 years ago. Sand clock was also used to measure time. Sand clock was used by Romans. The time taken by sand to fall into the lower chamber from the upper chamber was considered to be the unit of measuring time. The discovery of pendulum helped in determining the exact time before the elecronic watches were invented.
2.
As, we know that the speed of a body is given by \(Speed=\frac{Distance\ travelled}{time\ taken}=\frac{240}{4}=60km/h\)
3.

A sundial consists of triangular metallic plate called gnomon fixed vertically at the centre of a circular plate. The device is placed in the open in such a way that gnomon points in the north-south direction. It works on the principle that as position of sun in the sky changes, the position and length of shadow also changes. These are calibrated with time

13.
By suspending a metal ball with the help of a cotton thread and the other end of the thread can be tied to some different supports, so in this way, we can prepare a pendulum by our own.
14.
When the object is at rest, then the distance-time graph of an object is a horizontal line parallel to the axis of time.
15.
We can decide time of the day without clock by seeing shadow formed by the sun, e.g. at noon, shadow formed by the sun is shorter than at evening.
16.
The most common thing in almost all the clocks is that all of them shows periodic motion.
17.
From the question, Bholu covers 3 km distance in 15 min
speed of Bholu \(=\frac{3}{15}\times60=12\ km/h\) \((1\ min=\frac{1}{60}h)\)
Now, average speed is given by
\(=\frac{Total\ distance\ travelled}{Total\ time\ taken}=\frac{9}{1}=9\ km/h\)
18.
While choosing the most suitable scale for drawing a graph, we should keep the following points in mind
(i) The difference between the highest and lowest values of each quantity.
(ii) The intermediate values of each quantity so that with the scale chosen, it is easy to mark the values on the graph.
(iii) To utilise the maximum part of the paper on which the graph is to be drawn, assume that we have a graph paper of size 25 cm \(\times\) 25 cm and we have to accommodate following data:
| Tim (AM) | Odometer reading | Distance from the starting point |
| 8:00 AM | 36540 km | 0 km |
| 8:30 AM | 36560 km | 20 km |
| 9:00 AM | 36580 km | 40 km |
| 9:30 AM | 36600 km | 60 km |
| 10:00 AM | 36620 km | 80 km |
Since, one of the scales will be
Distance 5 km = 1 cm and Time 6 min = 1 cm

30.
( )
Stop watch can measure time up to fraction of second and can be stopped or started at any moment.
31.
( )
When a body covers equal distance in equal interval of time, the motion is uniform, but if it covers unequal distance in a given time, it is non-uniform motion.
