Answer key & quick explanations

Short answers for the sample questions above. Use this to self-check before generating a fresh AI-built mock test.

1. What is the SI unit of acceleration?
meters per second squared (m/s2)
Acceleration measures the rate at which velocity changes over time. It is calculated by dividing velocity (meters per second) by time (seconds), yielding meters per second squared, written as m/s2.
2. Which physical quantity is measured by the slope of a distance-time graph?
speed
The slope of a graph represents the vertical change divided by the horizontal change. For a distance-time graph, that is distance divided by time, which equals speed.
3. State Newton's first law of motion in a few words.
An object remains at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.
Often called the law of inertia, this rule states that objects resist changes to their state of motion. A book resting on a desk will remain there until an outside force moves it.
4. What is the product of an object's mass and its velocity called?
momentum
Momentum is a vector quantity calculated by multiplying an object's mass by its velocity. It represents the quantity of motion that a moving body contains.
5. Why does an explorer feel lighter on the Moon than on the Earth?
Because the Moon's gravitational pull is weaker than Earth's.
As mass remains constant, weight depends directly on gravitational pull. Since the Moon has a smaller mass than Earth, its gravitational pull is only about one-sixth as strong, making objects weigh less there.
6. State the mathematical formula for universal gravitation.
F = G × (m1 × m2) / r^2
Newton's law of gravitation states that the attractive force between two masses is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.
7. Name the process by which a solid changes directly into a gas without melting into a liquid.
sublimation
Sublimation occurs when solid particles absorb enough thermal energy to overcome attractive forces completely, escaping directly into gas. Dry ice and camphor are classic examples of this process.
8. What is the chemical symbol for the metallic element Iron?
Fe
The chemical symbol for iron is Fe, which comes from its Latin name 'ferrum'. This historic term is why we use Fe rather than letters from its English name.
9. Why is sodium metal stored immersed in kerosene oil?
Because it is highly reactive and reacts vigorously with moisture and oxygen in the air.
Sodium is an alkali metal that quickly catches fire or reacts violently when exposed to water vapor or oxygen. Kerosene forms a protective barrier that keeps moisture away from the metal.
10. Which subatomic particle has a positive electrical charge?
proton
Protons are positive subatomic particles found in the dense central nucleus of an atom, alongside neutral neutrons. Negative electrons orbit around this nucleus.
11. State the law of conservation of mass in a chemical reaction.
Mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
This fundamental rule states that the total mass of the reactants must equal the total mass of the products. Atoms are simply rearranged, never destroyed or generated from nothing.
12. What are the three states of matter?
solid, liquid, and gas
Matter is classified into these three classical states based on particle spacing and movement. Solids have fixed shapes, liquids have fixed volume but flow, and gases fill any available container.
13. What happens to the rate of evaporation as wind speed increases?
Evaporation increases.
Brisk wind sweeps away water vapor particles already floating near the wet surface, making room for more liquid particles to escape as vapor. This is why clothes dry faster on a breezy afternoon.
14. What is the chemical formula for water?
H2O
A molecule of water consists of two hydrogen atoms chemically bonded to a single oxygen atom, giving it the molecular formula H2O.
15. Is the boiling of water a physical change or a chemical change?
physical change
Boiling is a physical state change because the liquid water simply shifts to gas vapor without changing its underlying chemical identity. The molecules remain H2O throughout the heating process.
16. Name the element with the atomic number 1.
hydrogen
Hydrogen is the simplest and most abundant chemical element. Its neutral atom contains just one proton in its nucleus and a single orbiting electron, giving it an atomic number of 1.
17. Which gas is produced when a reactive metal combines with dilute hydrochloric acid?
hydrogen
When metals like zinc react with dilute hydrochloric acid, they displace hydrogen from the acid, releasing hydrogen gas as bubbles. The equation is represented as Zn + 2HCl -> ZnCl2 + H2.
18. What do we call a mixture where the composition is uniform through its volume?
homogeneous mixture (or solution)
Homogeneous mixtures have a uniform physical phase and appearance throughout because the solute particles dissolve evenly at a microscopic level, as seen when sugar is mixed into water.
19. Write down the molecular formula of carbon dioxide.
CO2
Carbon dioxide consists of one carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms, represented by the chemical formula CO2.
20. What is rust chemically composed of?
hydrated iron oxide
Rust is formed when iron reacts with oxygen and water vapor over time. This chemical reaction produces hydrated iron oxide, a reddish-brown flaky substance that gradually weakens the metal.
21. Which cell organelle is commonly called the suicidal bag of the cell?
lysosome
Lysosomes contain strong digestive enzymes that break down waste materials within a cell. If a cell is badly damaged, the lysosome may burst, releasing enzymes that digest the entire cell.
22. What thin boundary controls the passage of substances in and out of an animal cell?
plasma membrane (or cell membrane)
The cell membrane acts as a selectively permeable barrier, permitting essential nutrients and gases to enter while preventing harmful wastes or foreign particles from passing through.
23. Which plant tissue is responsible for moving prepared food from the leaves to other plant parts?
phloem
Phloem transports glucose prepared during photosynthesis from the leaves to growing zones and storage roots. Xylem moves water upward, while phloem distributes food in both directions.
24. Name the main pigment in plant leaves that traps sunlight for photosynthesis.
chlorophyll
Chlorophyll is a green pigment situated inside chloroplasts. It plays a critical role in trapping solar energy, which plants use to synthesize glucose from water and carbon dioxide.
25. What is the basic structural and functional unit of all living organisms?
cell
The cell is the basic brick of life. All living organisms are made of one or more cells, and all essential biological activities take place within these tiny structures.
26. Define a tissue in a few simple words.
A group of similar cells performing a specific function.
A tissue is an organized group of cells that share a similar structure and cooperate to perform a specific task, such as muscular tissue helping in movement or vascular tissue in plants.
27. What is the primary role of decomposers in a forest ecosystem?
To break down dead matter and recycle nutrients back into the soil.
Decomposers like fungi and bacteria secrete digestive enzymes onto decaying leaves and timber, transforming them into basic soil nutrients that support the growth of new plants.
28. Why can't animal cells make their own food?
Because they lack chloroplasts and chlorophyll.
Unlike plants, animal cells do not possess green chloroplasts containing chlorophyll, meaning they are unable to capture solar energy to convert inorganic molecules into sugar.
29. Name one disease caused by a pathogenic virus in humans.
influenza (or polio, chickenpox, common cold)
Viruses are microscopic packages of genetic material that invade host cells to multiply, leading to common infectious sicknesses such as influenza, cold, or chickenpox.
30. What clean greenhouse gas is absorbed by green plants during the process of photosynthesis?
carbon dioxide
During photosynthesis, leaves absorb carbon dioxide from the surrounding atmosphere through tiny stomatal pores, using it as a carbon building block to synthesize glucose.
