 SECTION-A: OBJECTIVE TYPE QUESTIONS

Part I - PHYSICS

1. For a uniformly accelerated body with initial and final velocities as u and v m/s, the averagevelocity
is (1)
𝑣−𝑢
(a) u/2 (b) v/2 (c) 𝑢+𝑣 (d)
2 2
2. Area below v-t graph is a measure of (1)
(a) Acceleration (b) Displacement

(c ) Angular speed (d) Angular displacement

3. A particle is moving in a circular path of radius r. The displacement after half a

circle would be (1)
(a) Zero (b) 𝜋r (c) 2r (d) 2𝜋r
4. If the displacement of an object is proportional to square of time, then the object
moves with (1)
(a) Uniform velocity (b) Uniform acceleration

(c )Increasing acceleration (d) Decreasing acceleration

5. In the following question, Assertion and Reason are put forward. Read the statements carefully and
choose the correct option from the following (1)
(i) Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
(ii) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of
Assertion.
(iii) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
(iv) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
(v) Assertion and Reason both are false.

Assertion. Speedometer is a device used to measure average speed.

Reason. Speedometer is used for measuring various speeds in each time interval.

Part II - CHEMISTRY

6. The process in which solid directly converts into gaseous form is known as- (1)

(a) Sublimation (b) Evaporation

(c) Condensation (d) Vaporisation

7. We know that all particles of matter are always continuously moving and never at rest. At agiven
temperature in any gas liquid or solid there are particles with different amount of kinetic energy. In the
case of solids a small fraction of particles of the surface having higher kinetic energy is able to break
away from the force of attraction of other particles and get converted into vapour. This phenomenon of
change of a liquid into vapours at any temperature below itsboiling point is called evaporation. (1×4=4)
(i) Which of the following states have maximum kinetic energy between the particles?

(a) Solid (b) Liquid

(c) Gas (d) Particles of liquid and gas have same kinetic energy

(ii) Evaporation takes place

(a) At the boiling point of liquid

(b) Below the boiling point of liquid

(c) Above the boiling point of liquid

(d) At or above the boiling point of liquid

(iii) Which of the following is a surface phenomenon?

(a) Evaporation

(b) Boiling

(c) Diffusion

(d) Both (a) and (b)

(iv) Which state have maximum force of attraction between the particles?

(a) Solid (b) Liquid

(c) Gas (d) All of the above

Part III - BIOLOGY

8. Cell theory was given by (1)

(a) Schleiden and Schwann

(b) Virchow
(c) Hooke
(d) Haeckel

9. Select the odd one out (1)

(a) The movement of water across a semi permeable membrane is affected by the amount of
substances dissolved in it.
(b) Membranes are made of organic molecules like proteins and lipids.
(c) Molecules soluble in organic solvents can easily pass through the membrane.
(d) Plasma membranes contain chitin sugar in plants.

10. What does ATP stands for? Where is it synthesized in a cell? (1)

11. Why is endocytosis found in animals only? (1)

12. Assertion-Reason Type Question: (1)

In each of the following questions, a statement of Assertion is given by the corresponding statement
of Reason. Of the statements, mark the correct answer as:

a) If both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
b) If both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
c) If Assertion is true, and Reason is false.
d) If Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
e) If Assertion and Reason both are false.

Assertion: Leucoplast performs photosynthesis.

Reason: Chloroplast stores fats, starch and proteins.
