Question 1:

A survey conducted by an organisation far the cause of illness and death among the women between the ages 15 - 44 (in years) worldwide, found the following figures(in %):


S.no. Causes Female fatality rate(%)
1 Reproductive health conditions 31.8
2 Neuropsychiatric conditions 25.4
3 Injuries 12.4
4 Cardivasculor conditions 4.3
5 Respiratory conditions 4.1
6 Other Causes 22.0

(ii)Which condition is the major cause of women's ill health and death worldwide?
(iii) Try to find out, with the help of your teacher, any two factors which play a major role ill the cause in (ii) above being the major causes.

Answer:

(i) By representing causes on x-axis and family fatality rate on y-axis and choosing an appropriate scale (1 unit 5% far y axis), the graph of the information given above can be constructed as follows:


In the graph, the rectangle bars are of the same width and have equal spacing among them.

(ii) As shown, Reproductive health condition is the major cause of women's ill health and death worldwide.

(iii) The factors are as follows.
1. Lack of medical facilities
2. Lack of awareness of  right medical treatment

Question 2:

The following data on the number of girls (to the nearest ten) per thousand boys in different sections of Indian society is given below.

Question:1

Give five examples of data that you can collect from day to day life.

Answer:

In our day to day life,we can collect the following data.
1. Numbers of girl students per class in a school.
2. Number of cars of different models in our colony.
3. Production of rice in last 20 years in our country.
4. Rainfall in our city in the last 10 years.
5. Scores made by a team in Indian Premier League tournament.

Question:2

Classify the data in Q1 above as primary or secondary data.

Answer:

The information which is collected by the investigator himself with defined objectives is called as primary data whereas when the information is gathered from a source which already had stored, is called as secondary data.
Item 1 and 2 are the primary data where as the data in 3, 4 and 5 is secondary data.

CBSE Class 9 - Science - Gist on Work, Energy and Power

₩øяк €ηεґℊ⑂ @ηⅾ ℙ☺ωℯґ


Study Points

1. Work is said to be done if a force is applied on the object and it is displaced from its original position.

2. Three things are necessary for the performance of work:
  • There must be an applied force F.
  • There must be a displacement x.
  • The force must have a component along the displacement
3. The work done W by a force F on an object is
    W = Fd cos θ
    where d is the displacement of an object.
   
θ is the angle between the force and the displacement.

4
. If displacement is along the direction of work i.e. θ = 0°
    W = Fd


5. If displacement is opposite to the force i.e. θ = 180°
    W = -Fd

6. if the displacement is perpendicular to the force (i.e. θ = 90°), then work done is zero.

7. Work done on an object by a force would be zero if the displacement of the object is zero.

8. Work is a scalar quantity.

9. Unit of work is Joule (J).

10.  1 Joule = 1 newton × 1 metre = 1 Nm
11. One Joule of work is to be done on an object when a force of one newton displaces it by one metre along the time of action of the force.

CBSE Class 9: Science - CH3 - Gist on Atoms, Molecules and Ions

Atoms, Molecules and Ions

CBSE Class 9: Science - CH3 - Gist on Atoms, Molecules and Ions

Study Points


1. The law of conservation of mass states that there is no detectable loss or gain in total mass of the substances in a chemical reaction.

2. Law of Conservation of mass was proposed by the French chemist Antoine Lavoisier (1774)

3. The Law of constant proportion or definite proportions states that all pure specimens of the same compound contain the same elements combined together in the same proportion by weight.

4. Law of definite proportion was proposed by Louis Proust (1799).

5. An atom is the smallest particle of the element which can take part in chemical change and it can exist independently and retain all its chemical properties.

6. The smallest particle of matter made up of two or more atoms, which can exist in free state, is called a molecule.

7. Law of definite proportion does not hold good when the compound is obtained by using different isotopes of the combining elements .

8. Each atom of an element shows all the properties of the element.
