2) Standard unit of time is second denoted by s.
3) Standard unit of temperature is kelvin denoted by K.
4) Standard unit of length is metre denoted by m.
5) Standard unit of weight is kilogram denoted by kg.
6) Speed is the ratio of distance to time.
7) Basic unit of speed is metre per second denoted by m/s.
8) Truck moving on a busy road is an example of non-linear motion.
9) Motion with regular intervals of time is called linear motion.
10) Quartz watch is more accurate to measure time.
11) The time taken to complete one oscillation is called time period of the
pendulum.
12) The metallic ball is called the bob of the pendulum.
13) Simple pendulum is an example of oscillatory motion.
14) Speedometer is used to measure speed in a vehicle.
15) Speed of a vehicle is measured in kilometre per hour denoted
by km/h.
16) Odometer is used to measure the distance travelled by vehicle
in kilometres(km).
17) The distance- time graph for a uniform motion is a straight
line.
18) Distance is measured in metres(m).
19) An object moving on a straight line with a constant speed is
uniform motion.
20) In non-uniform motion speed changes with time.
21) Pendulum rests at its mean position.
22) Sun dials and sand clocks were used to measure time in
ancient times.
