If he walks a distance of 60 m, what is the work done by him?<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> The work done by the coolie is zero because there is no displacement of&#8217; the load in the direction of force, which he is applying vertically upwards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 16:<\/strong> A bullet fired against a window glass pane makes a hole in it without any cracks while a stone striking the same glass pane smashes it; explain with reason.<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> When the bullet strikes the glass, the part of the glass coming in contact with the bullet, immediately shares the large velocity of the bullet and makes a hole in it while the rest of the glass pane, due to inertia of rest, remains at rest and so is not smashed. But when a stone strikes the same glass pan, the surrounding part of the glass gets time to share the comparatively low velocity of stone and so it is smashed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 17:<\/strong> State one factor on which the magnitude of a non-contact force depends.

It is because loaded vehicle has greater momentum than the empty vehicle as the mass of loaded vehicle is more than that of the empty one. So, it requires more force to stop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 30:<\/strong> What is meant by the term &#8216;moment of force&#8217;? If the moment of force is assigned a negative sign then will the turning tendency of the force be clockwise or anti clockwise?<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> It is equal to the product of the magnitude of the force and the perpendicular distance of the line of action of force from the axis of rotation. If moment of force is assigned a negative value, it means clockwise tendency of force.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 31:<\/strong> Define Uniform circular motion.<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> When a particle moves with a constant speed in a circular path, its motion is said to be the uniform circular motion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 32:<\/strong> Define Translational motion.<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> When a force acts on a rigid body which is free to move, the body starts moving in a straight line in the direction of force. This is called translational motion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 33:<\/strong> Define Centripetal force.<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> At each of circular path, the particle, instead of moving straight continuously, turns towards the centre. Therefore, the motion in circular path is under the action of a force which called the centripetal force.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 34:<\/strong> Define the term momentum.<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> The momentum of a body is the product of the mass of the body and its velocity, i.e. p = mv.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 35:<\/strong> How is force related to the momentum of a body?<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> Force is equal to the rate of change of momentum.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 36:<\/strong> State the condition when the change in momentum of a body depends only on the change in its velocity.<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> If mass of the body <em>m<\/em> remains constant then the change in momentum of the body depends only on the change in its velocity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 37:<\/strong> With reference to their direction of action, how does a centripetal force differ from a centrifugal force?<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> Direction of centripetal force is towards the centre of the circle whereas centrifugal force is opposite to centripetal force.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 38:<\/strong> Can the CG be situated outside the material of the body? Give an example.<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> The position of CG of a body depends on the distribution of mass in the body.

This is because the CG in the former case is high and so a slight displacement due to water current may cause the vertical line passing through the CG to fall outside the base, thereby overturning the ship.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 43:<\/strong> Explain why Standing passengers are not allowed on the upper deck of a double decker bus.<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> The centre of gravity is raised and on an inclined road the bus may topple.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 44:<\/strong> Explain when we carry a weight on one hand, we bend on the other side.<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> This is to let our CG fall within the base of our support.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 45:<\/strong> What is the weight of a body placed at the centre of the earth?<br \/>\n<strong>Answer:<\/strong> The weight of a body placed at the centre of the earth is zero as<br \/>\ng = 0<br \/>\n\u2234 W = mg<br \/>\n= 0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 46:<\/strong> What do you understand by work?

When atoms of uranium fuel are hit by neutrons they fission (split), releasing heat and more neutrons. Under controlled conditions, these other neutrons can strike more uranium atoms, splitting more atoms, and so on. Thereby, continuous fission can take place, forming a chain reaction releasing heat. The heat is used to turn water into steam that, it turn, spins a turbine that generates electricity. At present nuclear power is used to generate 3% of all the country&#8217;s electricity.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-104428\" src=\"https:\/\/cbselibrary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/icse-solutions-class-10-physics-15.png\" alt=\"icse-solutions-class-10-physics-15\" width=\"471\" height=\"275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cbselibrary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/icse-solutions-class-10-physics-15.png 471w, https:\/\/cbselibrary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/icse-solutions-class-10-physics-15-300x175.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 471px) 100vw, 471px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Short Numericals<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Question 1:<\/strong> Derive a relation between the S.I. and C.G.S. unit of force.<br \/>\n<strong>Solution:<\/strong><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-104638\" src=\"https:\/\/cbselibrary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/icse-solutions-class-10-physics-17.png\" alt=\"icse-solutions-class-10-physics\" width=\"614\" height=\"124\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cbselibrary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/icse-solutions-class-10-physics-17.png 614w, https:\/\/cbselibrary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/icse-solutions-class-10-physics-17-300x61.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 614px) 100vw, 614px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Question 2:<\/strong> A man can open a nut by applying a force of 150 N by using a lever handle of length 0.4 m.
