INTRODUCTION OF MEASUREMENT:
It is the study of any body or any things
measure in the physical quantities is called Measurement.
SYSTEM OF MEASUREMENT:
There are three systems of measurement. They are:
(1) C.G.S
CGS System:
Centimeter, Gram and Second are fundamental physical units of
length, mass and time. In CGS system, the derived unit of force is Dyne.

MEASURING INSTRUMENT:
Those instrument or apparatus that used
for measurement, physical quantity and duration of event time is called
measuring instrument.
VERNIER CALLIPERS
An ordinary meter rod can measure a distance upto 7mm. to measure
distances smaller than this the instruments are used. It is used to measure
a distance accurately up to 0.1mm. A vernier calliper consists of
rectangular steel bar whose one side is graduated in cms. It is known as
"main scale". A small scale consisting of 10 division which slides over
the main scale is known as "vernier scale."
MICROMETER-SCREW-GAUGE
The vernier callipers can measure up to 1/100 of a cm. It consists of a
solid U- shaped frame F of metal. It has a fixed studat with plane
roundend and other end B. B passes a fine and accurately cut screw S
having a plane roundend. A cap fit on the screw-division 50. Scale
graduated in millimeter on the nut of screw. Parallel to the axis of the
screw and is called "Linear main scale".
PHYSICAL BALANCE
It is common device that used for to find the mass of object. It consists of
a horizontal beam resting at its middle point on a central knife edge. Two
similar pans are suspended on two more knife edges near each end of the
beam. A long pointer capable of swinging on a scale PS attached to the
middle of the beam the physical balance is leveled on a table by means of
leveling screw. The beam is set free by rotating the knobat the front of the
balance. The pointer moves towards the side smaller mass by means of
two adjustment screw. Standard mass in the pan is adjusted to find the
mass of the object.
STOP WATCH
If we are interested to measure time intervals for event we use a special
watch known as "Stop Watch". Scales of minutes and seconds hand in it
are on a circular dial. Stop watch is set at zero. Pressing and releasing the
Knob. The Knob B is pressed and released again the watch start. The
second hand complete one rotation of sixty seconds, the minute. Hand
advance by division.
MEASURING CYLINDER
It is a glass cylinder with a scale in cubic centimeter or milli- (ml)
marked on it. It is used to find the volume liquid. When a liquid is
poured, it raises certain height in the cylinder. The level of liquid in the
cylinder is noted and the volume of liquid obtained. The cylinder lies on
horizontal table.

The adding of vectors two or more than two but they have
different in direction is called Addition of vector.
ADDITION OF VECTOR BY HEAD TO TAIL RULE METHOD:
• The sum of vectors is different from that of scalar addition.
• While adding vectors we have to take cover direction, In addition
to magnitude.
• The sum or resultant vector of two or more vectors is a single

KINEMATICS
Topics of the chapter:
a) Kinematics
b) Rest
c) Motion and its types
d) Distance, Speed and its types
e) Displacement, Velocity and its types
KINEMATICS:
It is the branch of the mechanics which deals with the study of
motion of objects without reference to the force or agent is called
"Kinematics"
For Example: Motion of car, walking of man and motion of ball etc.
REST:
A body does not change its position but remain same place.
OR
If a body does not change their place from A point to B point is
called "Rest".
MOTION:
A body changes its position but not remain same place.
OR
If a body changes its position from A point to B point
OR
An object change their position from one place to another place is
called "Motion"
TYPES OF MOTION:
There are three types of motion. They are:
1. Translatory Motion
2. Rotation Motion
3. Oscillatory (Vibratory) Motion
TRANSLATORY MOTION:
A motion of a body in which every particles of the body is
being displaced by the same amount is called Translatory motion.
OR
An object moves a straight path.
A B
EXPLANATION:
A car is moving a straight path A to path B but this path is
straight path
ROTATION MOTION:
When an object spins or rotates about a fixed point or axis its
motion is called rotational motion.

Velocity:
Total displacement covered per unit time is called Velocity.
OR
The time rate change of displacement is called Velocity.
It is a vector quantity and it denotes by "V"
Mathematically we can be written by
V = S_
T
That means the speed of the body in different direction is its called
velocity.
It is a vector quantity and its S.I unit is m/s
Average Velocity:
Vav = S_
T
Acceleration and its types:
Acceleration: The rate of velocity is called Acceleration. OR if a body is
moving a velocity with respect to time is called acceleration
Explanation: If the speed is increasing then acceleration is positive. If
the speed is decreasing then acceleration is negative or retardation. The
positive acceleration is same direction. The negative acceleration is
opposite direction.
Acceleration is a vector quantity.
Velocity (+ve) Velocity (+ve)
+ ve
– ve Negative Acceleration
Mathematically formula
a = ∆V
∆t
a= V a = Vf – Vi
t t
.: ∆V = Vf – Vi
There are two factors in acceleration.
1. Initial Velocity (Vi)
2. Final Velocity (Vf)
The unit of acceleration in S.I system m/s2 or ms – 2
Uniform Acceleration:
If a velocity body is moving a along a straight line
changes uniformly in equal time. OR If a body moving with uniform
velocity is called uniform acceleration.
Average Acceleration:
The ratio between total change in velocity and time is
called average acceleration
.: a av = ∆V
∆t
Deceleration or Retardation:
First equation:
If an object is moving with uniform acceleration and its velocity
change initial velocity (Vi) to final velocity (Vf) in time interval t
Vf = Vi + at
Solution
Vf = Vi + at .: a = Vi – Vf
t
a = Vi –Vf
t
by cross multiplication
at = Vi – Vf
Change the side of Vi
at + Vi = -Vf
Now the change side of Vf
Vf = at +Vi
And now rearrangement of at + Vi
Vf = Vi + at Hence proved
Second Equation:
A body starts with an initial velocity Vi and moves for t
second with a acceleration so that final velocity become Vf. We find the
distance
S = Vit +1/2 at 2
Solution
S = vt .: V = Vi +Vf
2
S = Vi + Vf × t
2
S = Vi + Vi + at ×t .: Vf = Vi+ at
2
S = 2 Vi + at ×t
2 2
S = Vit + 1 at 2
2
S = Vit + 1 at2
2 Hence proved
Third Equation:
It is related to motion. Initial velocity, the final velocity,
acceleration and distance traveled
2as = Vi 2 + Vf 2
Solution
S = Vt .: V = Vf +Vi & t = Vf – Vi
2 a
S = Vf + Vi Vf – Vi
2 a
S = Vf 2 - Vi 2
2a
By cross multiplication
2as = Vf 2 – Vi 2
CHAPTER NO 5
FORCE AND MOTION
Topics of the chapter:
(a) Force
(b) Newton's Laws of Motion
(c) Mass and Weight
FORCE:
It is an agent which the changes or tends to change the state of
rest the motion of a body is called Force.
Its S.I unit is Newton or N.
Unit of Force:
The unit of force is Newton (N= kg.m/s 2). It is denoted by
N. It can be defined as fellows: "A force which produces an acceleration
of one metre per second on a mass of one kilogram is known as one
Newton"
Newton's Laws of Motion:
There are three laws of motion. Now we discuss about
these laws of Newton.
Newton's First Law of Motion:
This law states that "Every object continues its state of rest
or uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is act upon by an external
force"
OR
If the total force of object is zero, its centre of mass continues is in the
same of the motion.
Example: A book lying on the table will remain their for ever in the
same position unless some one comes and removes it position.
Conclusions:
1. Force is an agent which produces or tends to produce a change in
the state of rest of motion.
2. All material object posses the property of opposing any change in
their state of rest or uniform motion. This property is known as
"Inertia" Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist a change in its
state is called "Inertia".
Therefore the first law of motion is also called the law of inertia.
Newton's Second law of Motion:
This law state that "When force is applied on a object, it will be produce
acceleration in its own direction." Force is directly proportional to the
magnitude of force and inversely proportion to the mass of the object.
F F
A a A a
a a
Mathematically we can be written
Acceleration is directly proportional to the Force and mass is constant.
Same force acting on the different masses
a ∝ F(Mass is constant) → (1)
Mass is inversely proportional to the acceleration and force is constant.
a ∝ 1/ m (Force is constant) → (2)
Combine both equation (1) and (2)
a ∝ F/m
Now remove the sign of the proportionality and use constant K.
a = K F/m
The value of K is 1.
Therefore a = 1. F/m
OR F = ma
The unit of force is the Newton (N= kg/m 2).
Newton's Third law of Motion:
This law state that "Every action there is equal and
opposite in the reaction." OR action or reaction of forces but opposition
in the direction of motion.
• Both reaction and reaction between the forces.
For Example: Let a person throws a ball on a wall. The ball bounces
back is due to the reason that the ball exerts a certain force on the wall.
This is called action of the ball on the wall. In response the wall also
exerts a force of the same magnitude on the ball which is called reaction
of the wall on the ball, and hence the ball bounces back.
F
Reaction of the wall
Mass and Weight:
Mass:
.: m = F/a
The ratio between force and acceleration is called mass.
Mass Weight
Momentum:
Momentum is defined as the "product of mass and velocity
of object and its denoted by P". The property of moving object is called
momentum. The S.I unit of momentum is kg.m/s and it is vector quantity.
Momentum is the direction of velocity.
P = m. v
For example: A bullet has a mass of 10 grams and a speed of 1000 m/s
but despite its small mass it is difficult to stop.
FRICTION:
If a body is slide over to other the body of surface OR if a body
is made to side over the surface
OR
If a body is made to slide over the surface of another body of motion is
opposed by the force of friction due to roughness of the two surfaces.
FœR
Where "R" is reaction of body
F = μ R-------- (1)
μ=F
R
ROLLING FRICTION:
A spherical ball rolling it experience an opposite force
called rolling friction.
OR
When a body rolls over the surface, the force of friction is called
rolling friction.
For Example: The rolling friction between steel surface is 1/100 of the
sliding friction between these surfaces. Besides, in rolling friction the
contact surfaces is much les than that in sliding friction.

EQUILIBRIUM:
Two equal forces are acting on body in the opposite
directions is called Equilibrium. When they are in rest or motion. If the
two forces F1 and F2 are equal and opposite and acting along the same
line.
There are two types of Equilibrium.
(1) Static Equilibrium
(2) Dynamics Equilibrium
(1) Static Equilibrium: The body forces acting remain same as in rest is
called static equilibrium.
Explanation: The book lying on a table as a book at a rest. The body is
acting on the horizontal direction.
(a) Two forces act upon the book, the force of gravity downward and
equal force by the table upward.
(2) Dynamics Equilibrium: The acting forces. There will in the motion
state is called Dynamics equilibrium. The body is acting on the vertical
direction to ward the earth. Two forces are not in equal. At torque is zero.
Explanation: Now consider the jumping of paratroops from the
areoplane. After jumping from the areoplane, the parachute is not opened
for some time. During this period the paratrooper falls freely downward
with acceleration due to gravity of earth. On opening the parachute, the
acceleration of the paratrooper will start decreasing due to reaction of air

CIRCULAR MOTION AND GRAVITATION
Topics of the chapter:
(a)Circular Motion
(b) Uniform Motion
(c) Centripetal Force
(d) Centrifugal Force
(e)Gravitation
(f) Law of Universal Gravitation
(g)Mass of Earth
(h) Variation of g with Altitude
CIRCULAR MOTION:
The Motion occur in body by rotational with axis is called
circular motion
OR
If a body move with circular path is called circular motion.
For Example:
(1) Planets revolve round sun
(2) Electrons revolve round nucleus
(3) The Moon revolves round earth
Since the object is rotating with constant speed, therefore the magnitude
of velocity (Speed) is constant but the direction of velocity is
continuously changing which is along tangent at points x, y, z etc.
Since the velocity is changing (due to change in direction and not
the magnitude), therefore, the object is said to posses acceleration.
This acceleration is called centripetal acceleration and is written
as a, it is found that (1) ac is directly proportional to square of velocity,
and
(2) ac is inversely proportional to the radius of the circle.
If m be the mass, v be the speed of the object rotating in the circle of
radius r, then
ac = V2/r
(1)
Suppose a ball of mass m is attached to one end of string and the other
end is held in hand. If the ball is rotated in a horizontal circle with
constant speed, then the hand is applying force on the ball through string
towards the centre of the circle. This force is centripetal force. If the
string breaks, then the ball will move along tangent.
CENTRIFUGAL FORCE:
According to the third law of motion the relation of the
centripetal force pulls the ball outward. This outward relation force on us
is called Centrifugal force.
The magnitude of the centrifugal force is equal to the magnitude of
the centripetal force but its direction is opposite.
Suppose a ball of mass m is attached to one end of a
string and the other end of the string is held in hand. If the hail is rotated
with constant speed in horizontal circle, then the hand is exerting force on
the ball forwards centre through string. This force is centripetal force.
Since to every action, there is an equal and the opposite reaction.
Therefore the ball is exerting an equal force on hand having direction
away from the centre of the circle. This force is called centrifugal force.
GRAVITATIONAL FORCE:
When a body or mass of object or ball is dropped
from the top of a building, it accelerates downward at 9.8m/s2 therefore a
force must be acting on it is called the force of gravitation or gravitational
force.
LAW OF UNIVERSAL GRAVITATION:
It was isolated by Newton in 1666, so it is
some time says Newton’s law of universal gravitation. It is statement that
“Every body in the universe attracts every other body with a force which
is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely
proportional to square of distance between their centers”.
Consider two spheres A and B of masses m1 and m2 with their
centers at a distance r from each other, then according to the law of
gravitation, the force of attraction F is A

=============================================================
INRODUCTION:
There are many devices which helps us in doing work in
a convenient manner. All these devices are called machines.
MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE AND EFFICIENCY:
Some important terms used in machines are defined below:
Effort:
It is the force applied on the machine. It is denoted by P.
Load:
It is the weight lifted by machine. It is denoted by W.
Mechanical Advantage (MA):
The ratio of load to effort is called mechanical advantage.
Therefore
Mechanical Advantage = load/effort
MA = W/P (1) MA has no unit.
Input:
The work done on the machine is called input. If effort P acts
through a distance d, then
Input = Pd (2)
Output:
The work done by the machine is called output. If load W is lifted
through a height h, then
Output = Wh (3)
Efficiency:
The ratio of output to input is called efficiency of machine.
Efficiency = Output/Input
Efficiency is measured in percentage. Hence
Output × 100
Efficiency =
Input (4)
KINDS OF MACHINES:
All machines consist of one or more of the following Six simple
machines.
(a) Lever (b) Pulley (c) Inclined Plane (d) Wedge (e) Screw (f)
Wheel and Axel
(a) Lever:
It is a simple machine which consists of a rigid bar capable of
turning about a fixed point called its fulcrum. Load W is lifted by lever
by applying the effort P. The perpendicular distance between effort P and
function is called effort arm.
The perpendicular distance between load W and fulcrum is
called weight arm or load arm.
Levers are three kinds depending upon the position of effort.
Lever of 1st kind:
Fulcrum F is between P and W.
For example, balance, handle of a pump, a pair of scissors, see saw are
examples of it.
Lever of 2nd kind:
Load W is between fulcrum F and effort P. The door, the nut
cracker, punching machine and oar used in rowing, are examples of
second kind of lever.
Lever of 3rd kind:
Effort P is between fulcrum F and load W. Human fore arm,
upper and lower jaws in the mouth, a pair of forceps, etc are examples of
3rd kind of lever.
In all kind of lever
Torque of effort = torque of load
i.e. Effort × effort arm = Weight × weight arm
P × BC = W × AB
(b) Pulley:
A pulley is a grooved wheel supported in a frame, Called block
such that wheel can turn about an axle in the block. The pulley can be
suspended from a fixed beam by means of a hook. A rope can pass over
the pulley. The pulley can be used in two ways.
(1) Fixed Pulley:
The block of the pulley is fixed to the ceiling. Load W is tied
to one end of the rope and effort P is applied as the other end. If we
neglect the weight of the rope and friction. Then
W × OB = P × OA
As OB and OA are equal, therefore they cancel out Hence,
W=P
Or W/P = 1 or MA = 1 (8)
The effort applied P is equal to the weight W. This pulley is used only to
change the direction of force. W is lifted upward by applying effort P in
the downward direction which is a convenient direction to apply force.
(2) Moveable Pulley: In this case the block and the pulley both are
moveable. The weight W is tied to a hook in the block of moveable
pulley and effort P is applied at the force end of the rope.
Two segments of the rope are lifting W. The tension in each
segment is P. Hence
W = 2P
Now,
Mechanical Advantage = W/P using W = 2P, we get
MA = 2P/P
Or MA = 2 (9)
MA is 2 which mean a load of 100 N can be lifted by an effort of 50 N.
(d) Wedge:
It consists of two inclined plane put together. It is used to split
wood into pieces.
Let an effort P be applied on the top of the wedge placed on a log of
wood. The load in this case are the forces R1 and R2 each equal to R
acting perpendicular to the inclined planes of the wedge.
The forces P, R1, and R2 can be represented by the sides of a triangle xyz
such that
xy represents P
yz represents R1
and yz represents R2
since R1 = R2 = R = load, therefore
MA = load/effort
Or MA= R/P
Or MA = zx /xy
As Δ’s xyz and and ABC are similar and zx/xy = AC/BC
Therefore
MA = AC /BC
(e) Screw:
It consists of a threaded rod with a head, called the screw head.
The distance between two adjacent threads is called its pitch, applied at
the screw head, the screw moves forward into the wood through a
distance equal to its pitch h. if d be the radius of screw head then the
effort P moves through a distance 2πd.
If there is no loss of energy due to friction, then
Output = Input
W× h = P × 2πd
W/P = 2πd /h
Or MA = 2πd /h (13)
Screw Jack:
It is a simple machine used to lifted a car or other automobile
when need arises. The car or automobile of weight W is placed on the
platform provided for this purpose. The pitch of the screw is h.

(c) Brownian Motion
(d) States of Matter
INTRODUCTION:
Matter exists in these states. These states are solid, liquid, and
a gas. Temperature and pressure may change the state of matter. For
example, ice is solid. When heated it is converted into liquid (water). On
further heating it is converted into gaseous state (steam). The existence of
these states of matter can be explained on the basis of kinetic molecular
theory of matter.
BROWNIAN MOTION:
The fact that molecules are in motion was first found by
Robert Brown in 1827.
He observed that Pollen grains suspended in water were constantly
moving in a Zig Zag path. This motion was due to collisions of water
molecules with pollen grains. This confirmed that water molecules were
also in random motion. This random motion of tiny particles is called
Brownian motion.
STATES OF MATTER:
Solid:
The molecules of solids are held firmly to one another by some
force of attraction. They simply make vibratory motion about their mean
positions and do not move away from each other. Solids have definite
shape and can not be compressed easily. As the temperature of a solid is
raised, its molecules vibrate with greater amplitude. At a certain
temperature, called the melting point, force of vibrations overcomes the
binding forces and the solid is converted into liquid.
Liquid:
The attractive forces between the molecules of liquid are less strong
than in solids. Liquid molecules are no longer held in fixed position but
can slide over one another. The molecules of liquid are arranged in fixed
pattern; therefore the liquids do not have definite shape. They occupy the
shape of the container in which they are placed. The surface of a liquid is
always in level because the molecules at the surface are attracted inward
by the other molecules.
When a liquid is heated, its molecules gain more kinetic energy.
At a certain temperature, the kinetic energy is so large that it overcomes
the attractive force between the molecules. The molecules escape from
the surface and the liquid is converted into gas.
Gas:
The molecules of gas are at a large distance from each other,
therefore the force between the molecules of gas is negligible. The
molecules of the gas are constantly in random motion making collision
with each other and with the walls of the container. Like solids, gases do
not have definite shape and like liquids, they do not have definite volume.
ELASICITY:
When force is applied to a rubber wire, it is stretched. When the
force is removed, it regains its original shape and size.
“The Phenomena of returning to original shape and size after the
force is removed, is called elasticity.”
If force is applied to a meter rod, it bends. When force is removed, it
again becomes straight. If the force is increased, then at a certain value of
force, it breaks. Thus there is a limit to the applied force form which the
rod recovers its original shape when the force is removed. This limit is
For example, if
On area A, force is = F
When on unit area, the force is = F/A, Hence
Stress = F/A = Force/ area
is denoted by Greek letter sigma (σ) Hence
σ = F/A (1) Its unit is N/m2
STRAIN:
Stress can produce change in shape, length or volume. This change
is called strain.
“The change in unit length is called longitudinal strain”
For Example,
If the length L, Changes by = ΔL
Then unit changes by = ΔL /L, Hence
Longitudinal strain = ΔL /L = change in length / original length
is denoted by Greek letter epsilon (ε), Hence
ε = ΔL /L (2) it has no unit.
HOOKE’S LAW:
It states that within the elastic limit, “Stress is directly
proportional to strain.”
i.e. Stress α strain
If a graph is plotted between stress and strain for a steel wire, then it is a
straight line upto point χ. In this region stress is proportional to strain and
the material is elastic. If the stress is removed, the wire regains its
original length.
Plastic Region
Strain
Stress
If the stress is applied beyond elastic limit, the change becomes
permanent and the material is said to be in the plastic region. The point at
which material becomes plastic is called elastic limit or yield point. The
material breaks at a certain point, called the breaking point.
YOUNG’S MODULES:
With in elastic limit
Stress / Strain = Constant
The constant is called Modules of elasticity.
“The ratio of normal stress to longitudinal strain is called Young’s
Modules of elasticity.”
Thus
Young’s Modules Y= Stress / longitudinal strain
Or y = σ / ε
Using equations (1) and (2), we get
y = F/A / ΔL / L
or y = FL / A ΔL (3)
FLUIDS:
Fluids (including both liquids and gases) are the substances that
flow. A fluid acquires the shape of the container in which it is put. Fluid
put in a container exert force perpendicular to the walls of the container.
If this were not so, any sideways force by a fluid on a wall (action) would
be met with an equal force on it by the wall (reaction) which would cause
the fluid to move constantly parallel the wall. Since this does not happen,
therefore the fluid exerts force perpendicular to the wall.
PRESSURE:
The perpendicular force acting on unit area of a surface is
called pressure. If the area A, the force is F then on unit area, the force is
F/A hence,
Pressure = F/A = force/Area
P= F /A (4)
The unit of pressure is also N/m2 called Pascal (Pa), such that
1Pa = 1 N/m2, hence
When one Newton force acts on one m2, the pressure is said to be 1
Pascal. The bigger unit is kilo Pascal (1KPa 2 = 1000 Pa 2).
PRESSURE IN LIQUIDS
ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE :
We live the bottom of deep sea of air called atmosphere. The
major gases in air are nitrogen and oxygen. The atmosphere due to its
weight exerts pressure on the surface of earth and on every thing on earth.
This pressure is called atmospheric pressure. At sea level atmospheric
pressure is about 105 Pa (105N/m2).
Barometers:
It is device used to measure atmospheric pressure is called
barometer. Different types of barometer are below;
• Mercury Barometer: it is simple barometer used to measure
atmospheric pressure in the laboratory.
• Aneroid Barometer: it does not contain liquid. It consists of
corrugated steel box partially evacuated of air.

(a) Introduction
(b) Nature of heat
(c) Temperature
(d) Transfer of heat
(e) Thermal Conductivity
(f) Gases laws
(g) Specific heat
(h)Law of heat exchange
Introduction:
When a piece of iron is placed on fire, it becomes hot. It means, it
has taken something from fire. This something is called heat.
Nature of Heat:
Heat is the transfer of energy (energy in transit) from one body to
another due to the temperature difference between the two bodies. When
a body absorbs heat, its internal energy increases and when it loses heat,
its internal energy decreases. Internal energy is the sum of all the kinetic
and potential energies of all the molecules of the body.
Temperature:
"Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body."
According to kinetic molecular theory, the molecular of substance have
various values of kinetic energy, some molecules have large K.E and
some molecules have small K.E.
"The average kinetic energy of molecules of a substance determines
the temperature of the substance."
Thermal Conductivity:
The ability of substance to conduct heat energy is called thermal
conductivity. Consider a metal block a length ∆L and area cross section
such that its one end is constantly maintained at a lower temperature T1
and other end at a higher temperature T2 .If heat ∆Q conducted from hot
end to the cold end in end in ∆t seconds, then it is end that,
∆Q α A
∆Q α (T2- T1)
∆Q α ∆t
∆Q α 1/∆L
The thermal conductivity is the quantity of heat conducted per second per
cubic meter of a substance whose opposite faces are maintained at a
temperature difference of 1 C.
Gas Laws:
The behaviour of a gas is determined by physical quantities like
pressure, volume, temperature and mass of the gas relation between two
of variable, keeping the other variable constant are caused gas laws.
Boyle's Law:
"This law state that volume of a given mass of a gas is inversely
proportional to pressure. The temperature of the gas was kept by
constant."
Mathematically; it can be written as
V œ 1/p
V = 1/p (constant)
Or V = k/p
PV = k
Or PV = Constant
"Boyle's law can be defined as product of pressure and volume of a given
mass of a gas is constant. Its temperature is kept constant."
Boyle's Law by Graph:
If we put a graph for different values of same mass of the gas we get
hyperbolic as shown in the figure. The shape shows that if pressure of the
gas is increased the volume will decrease and vice versa.
Charles's Law:
"This law states that volume of a given mass of a gas is directly
proportional to temperature. Its pressure of gas is constant."
Mathematically can be written as
VœT
V = T constant
V/T =Constant
Charles's Law by graph:
If graph is plotted between different values of volume and
absolute temperature the gas at constant pressure. We obtained straight
line, therefore we can say that volume and temperature change
correspondingly. If this graph is produced in the backward direction then
of observed that at temperature volume is not zero but it become zero at
-273K. Generally the gases are liquefied before reaching to the
temperature -273cº. The temperature -273cº is taken as zero on Kelvin
scale of temperature. The zero is called absolute zero.

WAVES AND SOUND
Oscillation:
A motion which repeats itself in equal intervals of time is called
periodic motion.
If a body in periodic motion moves back and forth along the same path,
then the motion is called vibratory or oscillatory.
Wave Motion:
When we dip a pencil into a tub of water, the molecules of water
below the pencil are disturbed. This disturbance moves from molecule to
molecule with same speed. This disturbance is called wave. Since the
disturbances moves with same speed in all directions, therefore the
molecules which start to vibrate at a certain instant lie on a circle. That is
why water waves are circular. It may be noted that the water molecules
which start to vibrate at a certain instant that water molecules simply
make up and down motion when the wave (disturbance) passes through
them. The water molecules do not move along with the wave.
Suppose one end of a rope is tied to a wall and the other end is
held in hand. If we disturb the end which is held in hand by jerking it,
then this disturbance (wave) will move from particle to particle along the
rope. The disturbances is moving along the rope is called a wave.
Transverse Wave:
"The wave in which particle of the medium vibrate perpendicular to
the direction of motion of wave, is called transfer wave."
For Example, Water waves and waves produced in a string are transverse
waves.
In transverse waves, the particles of the medium above mean level are
said to form crests and the particles below mean level are said to form
troughs.
Longitudinal Waves:
"The wave, in which the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the
direction of motion of wave, is called longitudinal wave."
For Example, in a spring longitudinal waves are produced. The particle of
the spring, vibrate parallel to the direction of motion of wave.
Characteristics of a Wave:
Stationary Waves:
CHARACTERISTICS OF SOUND:
There are two types of sounds called the musical sound and noise. In
musical sound there is regularly between the vibration of frequency and
amplitude where as in noise, there is abrupt change is frequency and
amplitude.

PROPAGATION AND REFLECTION OF LIGHT
CHAPTER NO 14
REFRACTION OF LIGHT AND OPTICAL
INSTRUMENTS
Refraction of Light:
"The change in direction and velocity of light as it enters from a medium
into another, is called refraction of light."
The refraction of light is explained in which the boundary AB separates
the two media. CO is called incident ray, OE is called refracted ray, point
O is called point of incidence, NON' which is perpendicular to AB is
called normal,
LCON = Li is called angle of incidence, and
LN'OE = Lr is called angle of refraction.
Refraction of light obeys two laws, called the laws of refraction.
1st law:
"The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal to the surface at the
point of incidence, lie in the same plane".
2nd law:
"The ratio of sine of angle of incidence (Sin i) to the sine of angle of
refraction (Sin r) remains constant for the two media."
This constant is called refractive index and is denoted by n.
Hence
n = Sin i /Sin r
it may be noted that
(1) When light enters from rarer to denser medium, it bends towards the
normal.
And (2) When light enters from denser to rarer medium, it bends away
from the normal.
The 2nd law of refraction is also called Snell's Law. It may be noted that if
a ray of light enters normally into the other medium, there is no change in
direction.
The refractive index of a medium is also defined as
"The ration of speed light in vacuum or air to the speed of light in the
medium."
Hence

Lenses:
Lenses are made up of transparent refraction of medium (glass or plastic)
bounded by one or two spherical surfaces. The lenses are of two types,
(1) the convex, and (2) the concave lens.
(1) Convex Lenses:
The thickness of the convex lens at the middle is greater than at as edges.
A convex lens converges a parallel beam of light to a point, therefore it is
also called converging lens. There are three types of convex lenses
(1) Double convex lenses: Both the surface of a double convex
lens is convex.
(2) Plano convex lenses: One surface is convex and the order is
plane
(3) Concavo convex lenses: One surface is convex and the
other is concave.
Compound Microscope:
The compound microscope is used when ever high magnification is
required. The magnifying power of a simple microscope can be increased
d
by decreasing the focal length of the lens as M = 1+ But due to
F
constructional difficulties, the focal length of the lens can’t be decreased
beyond a certain limit. Therefore to increase the magnifying power, two
separate lenses are used. The lens near the object is called the
OBJECTIVE and the other which is nearer the eye is known as thee
EYE PIECE. The objective and eye piece are both convex lenses, The
objective is of small diameter and small focal length (high power) when
.the eye piece is of large focal length then the objective
The AB is placed at a distance slightly greater than the focal length of the
objective. An inverted image A’ B’ is formed of A’. The eye piece is
adjusted so that the distance of A’ from it is less than its focal length. As
the eye piece acts as a simple magnifying glass, the final image PQ is
.formed at P which magnified and virtual

(e) Resistance
(f) Ohm' law
Coulomb's Law:
Introduction:
This first experiment to study the force between two point
charges was carried out by Coulomb in 1785 by means of an apparatus
called torsion balance. The results of his observations are stated in a law,
called Coulomb's Law.
Statement:
"The force between two point charges is directly
proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to
the square of the distances between them"
Explanation:
If q 1 and q 2 be the point charges at a distance r from each
other placed in vacuum or air as shown in the given figure, then
according to the above statement, the magnitude of the force F is given
as:
F œ q 1 q 2 → (1)
Fœ 1
r2 → (2)
By comparing both eq: then we get
F œ q 1q 2

F = K q1 q 2
or r2 → (1)
F12 = K q1 q2 r12
r2 → (3)
F = 1_ q 1 q 2
4π ε▫ r2 → (5)
Electric current:
When charges move in a wire an electric current is said to flow through
the wire. The electric current through a conductor is defined as the
COMBINATION OF RESSITOR
We often encounter circuits where resistors are connected in series
or in parallel. In both cases, the total current flow from the battery and its
power output can be calculated if the equivalent resistance is determined.
1. SERIES COMBINATION:
A number of resistors R1, R2, and R3 are said to be connected in
series if they are connected end to end connectivity that the same current
I flows through ach.

By Ohm’s Law V
V = IRe
If V1, V2 and V3 be the potential difference across R1, R2 and R3, then
V= V1 + V2 + V3
But V1=IR1, V2= IR2, V3= IR3
∴
IRe = IR1+ IR2 + IR3
Re = R1 + R2 + R3
If there are more than three resistors in series, then a single equivalent
resistance can be given as

We will suppose that main current I divides into I1, I2 Into I1, I2 and I3

By Oh’s Law
V∝I
OR V=IR 1
This is the mathematical from of Ohm’s law. Where R is constant
of proportionality called as ‘resistance” of the conductor and depends
upon the nature, dimension and temperature of the conductor. From
equation 1.

R I
The S.I unit of resistance is the Ohm, shown as Ω (The Greek letter
Omega).
The resistance of the conductor is said to be one Ohms if a current of one
ampere passes through it when a P.d of 1 volt is applied across its end.
