Answer: 1
1-21
Potential Eenergy :
The energy possessed by a body due to its position is known as its potential energy.
Explanation:
Stored water possesses potential energy due to its height . A hammer rasisedup to some height has the avilityto do word because it possesses potential energy. Astretchedbow has potential energy due itsStretched position. When released , the stored energy of the bow is called elastic potential energy
The potential energy possessed by a hammer is due to its height. The energy present in a body due to its height is called gravitational potential energy.
Derivation
Let a body of mass m be raised up through height h from the ground. The body will acquire potential energy equal to the work done in lifting it to height h.
Thus
potential energy P.E = F x h
=w xh
= mg x h
P.E = mgh
Question: 2
Q no<gwmw class="ginger-module-highlighter-mistake-type-6" id="gwmw-15859789255065972988081">:</gwmw>(B) Calculate the power of a pump which can lift 200 kg of water through a height of 6 meters in 10 seconds.
Answer: 2
2-21
M= 200kg
h= 6 m
t= 10s
power of the pump = p=?
Since
F= w
= mg
200 x 10
=2000n
As we know that
p=w/t =F x s/t
But putting the values , we have
p= 2000 x6/10
p=m12000/10
P = 1200 W Ans

Q no: 6<gwmw class="ginger-module-highlighter-mistake-type-6" id="gwmw-15859792570062223490633">(</gwmw>A) Define efficiency. Write its formula.
Answer: 3
3-21
Efficiency:
Efficiency of a system is the ratio of required form of energy obtained from a system as output to the total energy given to it as input.
Example:
Electric motors may be used to pump water, to blow air , to wash clothes, to drill holes, etc for that they use electricenergy. How good a machine is depends how much output we obtain from it by giving certain input .The ratio of useful output to input energy is very important to judge the working of machine
Mathematical form:
Efficiency =Required form of output/Total input energy x100
Question: 4
Q no<gwmw class="ginger-module-highlighter-mistake-type-6" id="gwmw-15859804933601555746541">:</gwmw>6 (B) A 50 kg man moved 25 steps up in 20 seconds. Find his power<gwmw class="ginger-module-highlighter-mistake-type-6" id="gwmw-15859805147401837075311"> ,</gwmw> if each step is 16 cm high.
Answer: 4
4-21
m= 50 kg
Height of h= 16 cm
each step = 0.16m
n= 25
t = 20s
p= ?
Since
F = w
= mg
= 50 x 10
= 500N
Height = h= 0.16 x 25 = 4m
reached by man
As we know that
P =w/t = F x s/t
By putting the values
P= 500 x y/20
= 2000/20
= 100w Ans
Question: 5
Q no: 7<gwmw class="ginger-module-highlighter-mistake-type-6" id="gwmw-15859821278041911708633">(</gwmw>A) Write is the uses of Wind Energy.?
Answer: 5
5-21
Wind Energy:
Wind energy has used as a source of energy for centuries. It has powered sailing ships across the oceans . It has been used by windmills to grind grain and pump water. More recently , wind power is used to turn wind turbines. When many wind machines are grouped together on wind farms , they can generate enough power to operate a power plant. In the United stated , some wind farms generate more than 1300 MW of electricity a day. In Europe, many wind farms routinely generate hundred megawatts or more electricitya day
Question: 6
Q no<gwmw class="ginger-module-highlighter-mistake-type-6" id="gwmw-15859825816989941452392">:</gwmw>7 (B) Define Kinetic energy. Derive its formula K.E =1/2 mv²
Answer: 6
6-21
Kinetic Energy :
The energy possessed by a body due to its motion is called kinetic energy.
Derivation:
Let a body of mass m is moving with velocity V. An opposing force F actingthrough a distance S brings it to rest. The body possesses kinetic energy and is capable to do work against opposing force F until all of its kinetic energy used up.
K.E of the body = Work done by it due to motion
K.E - FS
Vi = V
Vf =0
F = ma
a =-f/m
Since motion is opposed, hence , a is negative. Using 3rd equation of motion
2as =Vf² - Vi²
2 (-F/m)S =0² - V²
FS = +1/2 mv²
As we know that K.F is equal to the work done.
K.E =1/2 mv² ( proved )
Question: 7
Define work. when a force do work? explain
Answer: 7
7-21
Work: work is said to be done when a force acts on a body and moves it in the direction of the force.
Recognition of work: the question raised how much work is done? naturally, greater is the force acting on a body longer is the distance moved by it, larger would be work done
" work is done when a force acting on a body displaces it in the direction of force".
Question: 8
Define energy and explain kinetic energy
Answer: 8
8-21
Energy: the capability of doing work is called energy. A body is capable to do work only when it has energy.
Question: 9
Define potential energy, explain its types
Answer: 9
9-21
potential energy: the energy possessed by a body due to its position is called potential energy.
Examples:
  • Stored water possesses the potential energy due to its height
  • A hammer raised up to some height has the ability to do work because it possesses potential energy
Question: 10
Explain different kind of energy
Answer: 10
10-21
Types of energy: there are number of forms of energy.
  • Mechanical energy: the energy of a body both due to its position or due to its motion is called the mechanical energy e.g.wind ,water running down in stream etc. possess mechanical energy.
  • Heat energy: The energy obtained due to burning of fuel is called heat energy. it obtained from the sun, or from the electric energy. It may also be obtained by burning of fuel. The main source of heat is the sun.
Question: 11
How is energy converted from one form to another? Give some examples
Answer: 11
11-21
Interconversion of energy: the conversion of one form of energy into another form is called interconversion of energy.
Explanation: energy cannot be destroyed however it can be converted into some other forms . For example, rub your hands together quickly. You will feel them warm. You have used your muscular energy in rubbing hands as a result heat is produced. In the process of rubbing mechanical energy is converted into heat energy. Processes in nature are the results of energy changes. For examples, some of the heat from the sun is taken up by water in the oceans. This increases thermal energy. Thermal energy causes water to evaporate from the surface to form water vapors. These vapors rise up and form clouds. As they cool down, they form water drops and fall down as rain. Potential energy changes to kinetic energy as the rain falls . This rain water may reach a lake or a dam. As the rain water flows down, its kinetic energy changes into thermal energy while parts of kinetic energy of flowing water is used to wash away soil particles of rocks known as soil erosion. During the interconversion of energy from one form to other forms, the total energy at any time remains constant .
Question: 12
What are fossil fuels? explain
Answer: 12
12-21
