- An atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains its properties, and a molecule is a combination of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds.
- The atomic number of an element represents the number of protons in the nucleus of its atom. It helps in identifying the element uniquely.
- Carbon dioxide: COâ‚‚, Methane: CHâ‚„
- The law of conservation of mass states that the total mass of the reactants in a chemical reaction is equal to the total mass of the products. To balance a chemical equation, the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms of the same element on the product side.
- 2 moles of oxygen (Oâ‚‚) contain 2 x 6.022 x 10²³ atoms (Avogadro’s number) of oxygen atoms.
- An atom consists of a positively charged nucleus at the center, composed of protons and neutrons, surrounded by negatively charged electrons in energy levels or shells.
- An element is a pure substance made up of only one type of atom, whereas a compound is a substance composed of two or more different elements chemically bonded together. Examples: Element – Oxygen (O), Compound – Water (Hâ‚‚O).
- The law of conservation of mass is satisfied if the total mass of the reactants is equal to the total mass of the products. Here, 5.85 grams of sodium + 3.38 grams of chlorine = 9.23 grams, which is equal to the mass of sodium chloride, so the data satisfies the law of conservation of mass.
- Balanced chemical equations show the stoichiometry of a chemical reaction by representing the reactants and products with their respective coefficients such that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation. Example: 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O.
- a) Reactants: 2Hâ‚‚ and Oâ‚‚; Products: 2Hâ‚‚O b) The number of atoms of each element on the reactant side (4H, 2O) is equal to the number of atoms of the same element on the product side (4H, 2O), satisfying the law of conservation of mass. [/expand]

A 50 kg person is standing on a scale in an elevator. The scale reads 600 N. Calculate the acceleration of the elevator when it is moving upward and when it is moving downward.
A ball is thrown vertically upwards. Explain its motion at the highest point in terms of velocity and acceleration.
Answer Key:
- c) Magnetic force
- a) Inertia
- c) Newton’s third law
- Force is a push or pull acting on an object. Examples of contact forces include pushing a chair and pulling a book with a string.
- Newton’s second law of motion states that the net force acting on an object is directly proportional to the product of its mass and acceleration. F = ma, where F is the net force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration.
- Acceleration = Net force / Mass = 20 N / 5 kg = 4 m/s²
- The net force acting on the car is zero since it is moving at a constant velocity. Newton’s first law states that an object in motion will remain in motion at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force.
- Acceleration = (30 N – 10 N) / 10 kg = 2 m/s²
- Upward acceleration = (600 N + 50 kg * 9.8 m/s²) / 50 kg = 23.8 m/s² (upward) Downward acceleration = (600 N – 50 kg * 9.8 m/s²) / 50 kg = 15.2 m/s² (downward)
- At the highest point, the ball’s velocity is zero, and its acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.8 m/s² directed downwards. [/expand]

What is the gravitational force acting on an object with a mass of 50 kg? (Take the acceleration due to gravity as 9.8 m/s²)
Why do objects experience weightlessness in the International Space Station (ISS)?
Calculate the weight of an object with a mass of 75 kg on the surface of Mars. (Acceleration due to gravity on Mars is approximately 3.7 m/s²)
Explain why a feather falls slower than a hammer when dropped in a vacuum.
The mass of the Moon is approximately 7.35 × 10^22 kg, and its average distance from the Earth is about 384,400 km. Calculate the gravitational force between the Earth and the Moon. (Use the universal gravitational constant, G = 6.67 × 10^-11 N m²/kg²)
Two objects attract each other with a force of 0.1 N when they are 0.2 meters apart. If the distance between them is halved, what will be the new force of attraction between them?

A satellite orbits the Earth at an altitude of 300 km above the surface. Calculate its orbital speed. (Radius of Earth = 6,371 km, acceleration due to gravity at the satellite’s altitude = 8.67 m/s²)
Answers:
Gravitation is the force of attraction that exists between objects with mass.
Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation states that every particle in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. Mathematically, it can be represented as:
F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2
Where: F = Gravitational force G = Universal gravitational constant (6.67 × 10^-11 N m²/kg²) m1 and m2 = Masses of the two objects r = Distance between the centers of the two objects
Gravitational force = m * g Gravitational force = 50 kg * 9.8 m/s² = ______ N
Objects experience weightlessness in the International Space Station because it is in a state of continuous free fall around the Earth. The acceleration due to gravity and the centrifugal force from the ISS’s orbit cancel out, resulting in apparent weightlessness for objects inside the station.
Weight on Mars = m * g Weight on Mars = 75 kg * 3.7 m/s² = ______ N
In a vacuum, both the feather and the hammer experience the same gravitational force. However, the feather offers more air resistance due to its larger surface area, which slows down its fall compared to the hammer.
Gravitational force between Earth and Moon = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2 Gravitational force = 6.67 × 10^-11 N m²/kg² * (5.98 × 10^24 kg * 7.35 × 10^22 kg) / (384,400,000 m)^2 Gravitational force = ______ N
New force of attraction = (Original force) * (1 / 2)^2 New force of attraction = 0.1 N * (1 / 4) = ______ N
Weight on Planet X = (1/4) * Weight on Earth Weight on Planet X = m * gX Weight on Earth = m * g gX = (1/4) * g Acceleration due to gravity on Planet X = ______ m/s²
Orbital speed = √(G * M / r) Orbital speed = √(6.67 × 10^-11 N m²/kg² * (5.98 × 10^24 kg) / (6,371,000 m + 300,000 m)) Orbital speed = ______ m/s

Describe the transformation of energy in a solar cell.
Calculate the gravitational potential energy of an object with a mass of 2 kg when it is placed at a height of 5 meters above the ground. (Take g = 9.8 m/s²)
Answer Key:
Work is defined as the product of force and displacement in the direction of the force.
Work = Force × Displacement Work = 20 N × 5 m = 100 J
a) Kinetic energy b) Chemical potential energy c) Electrical potential energy d) Elastic potential energy
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion. Example: A moving car.
Kinetic Energy = 0.5 × mass × (velocity)^2 Kinetic Energy = 0.5 × 1000 kg × (20 m/s)^2 = 200,000 J
The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be converted from one form to another. Its significance lies in maintaining a constant total energy in a closed system.
a) Electrical energy to light energy b) Potential energy of water to electrical energy c) Kinetic energy of wind to mechanical energy d) Chemical energy to thermal energy and then to mechanical energy
Gravitational Potential Energy = mass × gravity × height Gravitational Potential Energy = 5 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 10 m = 490 J
As the roller coaster climbs a hill, its potential energy increases, and as it descends, its potential energy is converted back to kinetic energy.
Work = Force × Displacement Work = 50 N × 2 m = 100 J
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is stored energy due to an object’s position or condition. Example: Kinetic energy – A moving car, Potential energy – A stretched rubber band.
Work = Force × Displacement Work = 50 N × 8 m = 400 J
As the ball goes upwards, its kinetic energy decreases, and its potential energy increases. At the highest point, the kinetic energy is zero, and the potential energy is at its maximum. As it falls back, potential energy decreases, and kinetic energy increases.
A solar cell transforms solar energy (radiant energy) into electrical energy.
Gravitational Potential Energy = mass × gravity × height Gravitational Potential Energy = 2 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 5 m = 98 J
