Main scale reading = 7 x 10 = 70 mm.(∴ 1 cm = 10 mm)
Vernier coincidence = 6
Least count = 0.1 mm.
Zero error = Nil
The diameter of the ball = MSR + (V.C x L.C) ± ZE
= 70 mm + (6 x 0.1)
= 70 mm + 0.6 = 70.6 mm

(i) An alternating current (AC) generator, consists of a rotating rectangular coil ABCD called armature placed between the two poles of a permanent magnet.
(ii) The two ends of this coil are connected to the two slip rings S1 and S2. The inner sides of these rings are insulated.
(iii) Two conducting stationary brushes B1 and B2 are kept separately on the rings S1 and S2 respectively. The two rings S1 and S2 are internally attached to an axle.
(iv) The axle may be mechanically rotated from outside to rotate the coil inside the magnetic field. Outer ends of the two brushes are connected to the external circuit

(v) When the coil is rotated, the magnetic flux linked with the coil changes. This change in magnetic flux will lead to generation of induced current.
(vi) The direction of the induced current, as given by Fleming's Right Hand Rule, is along ABCD in the coil and in the outer circuit it flows from B2 to B1.
(vii) During the second half of rotation, the direction of current is along DCBA in the coil and in the outer circuit it flows from B1 to B2

Gay Lussac's law of combining volumes.
Gay Lussac's law:
Whenever gases react together, the volumes of the reacting gases as well as the products if they are gases bear a simple whole number ratio provided all the volumes are measured-under similar conditions of temperature and pressure.
Hydrogen combines with oxygen to form water.
2H2 + 2O2 \(\longrightarrow \) 2H2O
(1 volume) + (2 volumes) \(\longrightarrow \) (2 volumes)
(1:2:2)
One volume of hydrogen react with two volumes of oxygen to form two volumes of water vapour.
The ratio by volume which gases, bears is 1.2:2 which is a simple number ratio.
17.
\(\frac { 1 }{ f } =\frac { 1 }{ u } +\frac { 1 }{ v } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ 20 } =\frac { 1 }{ -600 } +\frac { 1 }{ v } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ v } =\frac { 1 }{ 20 } -\frac { 1 }{ -600 } \)
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 20 } +\frac { 1 }{ 600 } \)
\(\frac { 1 }{ v } =\frac { 30+1 }{ 600 } =\frac { 31 }{ 600 } \)
\(v=\frac { 600 }{ 31 } \)
= 19.35 cm
b) Size of the image
\(m=\frac { -v }{ u } \)
= \(-\frac { v }{ (-u) } =\frac { -600 }{ 31 } \times \frac { 1 }{ -600 } \)
m=\(\frac { 1 }{ 31 } \)
Breadth of image =\(\frac { 1 }{ 31 } \)\(\times\)200 cm= 6.45 cm
Height of image = \(\frac { 1 }{ 31 } \) \(\times\)160 cm= 5.16 cm
18.

(ii) Wait for the pea seeds to germinate
(iii) Once the seedling has grown put it in a box with an opening for light on one side.

23.
(i) Speed = \(\frac { Distance }{ Time } \)= Distance = 1 km = 1000 m
Time =100 s
Speed = \(\frac { 1000 }{ 100 } \) =10 m/s
(ii) \(\frac { Displacement }{ time } \) = Velocity
Displacement = 1 km = 1000 m
Time = 100 s
Velocity = \(\frac { 1000 }{ 100 } \) = 10 m/s.

37.
When a ray of light passes from air into glass the angle of refraction is lesser than the angle of incidence.
38.
When we put the ice cube in a glass of water it will float because density of ice cube is lesser than water. So it will float.
When we put the ice cube in a glass of alcohol it will sink because density of ice cube is greater than alcohol. So it will sink.
Density of water = 1 g cm-3
Density of ice cube = 0.917 g cm-3
