This document contains 25 science questions ranging from how to calculate the height of a tree to defining terms like joints, skulls, and floating ribs. It also includes questions about light beams, reflection, locomotion in birds, magnetism, separation techniques like sieving and winnowing, and how muscles and bones enable movement. The answers provide explanations for how snakes move without going in a straight line, how magnets can be used to separate junk, and how a compass can be used to determine directions.

Q2. What do you mean by reflection? What is main condition for
diffused reflection? Q3. Tell all beams of light and also tell where we can see them. Q4. Tell the difference between the Image and Shadow. Q5.Define skull. Q6. Tell physically. Bones of human leg while labeling with the help of finger. Q7. Explain why doctors use X-ray photographs?
Q8. Explain locomotion in birds.
Q9. Is earth a huge magnet? How? Q10. How magnet compass works? Q11. Explain how muscles work to cause movements in bones. Q12. Why do snakes not move forward in a straight line? Ans: The snake's body is twisted into a tangle of loops. The snake's body is made up of several muscles that are linked to one another and to the skeleton's bones. Each of the snake's loops is moved by these muscles. As a result, each snake loop pushes forward by pressing on the ground. As the snake body is made up of numerous individual loops that push and move forward, it does not move in a straight line, even though it moves incredibly swiftly. Q13. Define joints. Explain its importance Q14. Explain how muscles work to cause movements in bones Q15. Name 5 methods used for separating substances from their mixtures? Q16. How do you separate sugar mixed with wheat flour? Ans: The method of sieving is used to separate the sugar and wheat flour mixture. First, the mixture is filtered through a sieve. Wheat flour particles will pass through, while the large sugar particles will be trapped by the sieve. Q17. Advantage of Winnowing: ANS. The operation of this method does not involve the use of any machines. It is entirely reliant on human activity; hence it takes less time to process and is unquestionably inexpensive. Disadvantage of Winnowing: ANS. Winnowing is a way of separating heavy components of a mixture from lighter components using wind, but this procedure does not work for items heavier than grains, such as stones. Q18. How can magnets be used to separate junk in a junkyard? ANS. Materials such as iron, nickel, and cobalt, are attracted to magnets. Therefore, materials made of such magnetic substances can be separated in a junkyard by attracting them to a strong magnet. Hence, cranes with larger magnetic capacity are used in junkyards for separation of junk. Q19. Explain magnetisation. Ans. Magnetisation is the process of creating an artificial magnet with the help of a magnet. Place a piece of iron bar on the table. Then move one of the magnet's poles carefully along the entire length of the iron bar. It's important not to lift the magnet halfway. During this process make sure to use the same pole of the magnet to slide along the iron bar in the same direction each time. This method is repeated 30-40 times until the iron rod becomes magnetised Q20. How can a compass be used to find directions? Ans. A freely hanging magnet will always fall to the ground in a north-south orientation. A compass is made out of a magnetised needle that may freely rotate. The compass needle will always point north-south when it comes to rest. The needle will always point in the same direction. A compass can thus be used to determine north and south. Q21. At which point does the arm rotate? Ans. The arm rotates on the round pit like structure. Q23. What are floating ribs? Ans. The last two pairs of ribs that are not joined in front of the breast bone/sternum. So, they are called floating ribs. Q24. What is slithering? Ans. The movement of snakes is called slithering. Q25.
