37. There are many changes which take place in
our surrounding. Sonicsof thenl are physical
changes in which no new substances is fortned.
These changes are reversible. Chenlical changes
lead to formation of new substance with new
properties. It cannot be easily tvvctsed. Physical
changes involve less energy where as cheniical
changes involve more energy. Fortnation of
mixture mostly involves physical change where
as compound is formed by chernical change.
(a) NAhichof the following is/are physical

I Melting of wax
Il Heatingof iron
Ill Cookingof food

(b) Formation of water from hydrogen and
oxygen in presence of electric spark

8. Different crops require different climatic
conditions, temperature and photoperiods
for their growth and completion of their life
cycle. Photoperiods are related to the duration
of sunlight. Growth of plants and flowering
are dependent on sunlight. As we all know,
plants manufacture their food in sunlightby
the process of photosynthesis. There are some
crops, which are grown in rainy season, called
the kharif season from the month of June to
October, and some of the crops are grown in
the winter season, called the Rabi season from
November to April. Paddy, soyabean, pigeon

peas, mustard, linseed crops. In
India
there has been a four times increase in the
production of food grains from 1952to 2010
with only 25% increase in the cultivableland
area. This increase in production been achieved
through the practices involved in farming, we
can divide it into three stages. The first is the
choice of seeds for planting. The second is the
nurturing of the crop plants. The third is the
protection of the growing and harvested crops
from loss. Thus, the major groups of activities
for improving crop yields can be classifiedas:
Crop variety improvement
Crop production improvement
Crop protection management.
(a) Name the months which are called Kharif
season and Rabi season.
(b) What is the increase in production of food
grain since 1952?
(c) What are the three group of activities used
for improving crop yield?
Or
(c) Name two crop each from Kharif and Rabi
crop.
39. Gases and liquids are fluids because they can flow.
When density of a fluid is more it exerts a greater
buoyant force on the object immersed in it. This
is in accordance with Archimedes' principle. For
example,seawater exerts a larger buoyant force
on a person swimming in it, as compared to fresh
water. This is because the density of seawater is
greater than that of fresh water.
(a) Why does nobody sink in the Dead Sea?
(b) Give two applications of Archimedes'
principle?
(c) How are weight and upthrust of a body
related if it (i) floats (ii) sinks in a fluid?
Or
(c) Why does an iron nail sink while a ship
floats in water?
