Assignment Topic RATIONAL NUMBERS Definition A number of the form 119901119901
119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34
4minus7
etc
Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be in standard
form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36
minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)
(minus42) 119883119883 (minus1) = minus36 divide 6
42 divide 6 = minus6

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

(7) Reciprocal or Multiplicative Inverse A rational number 119888119888119889119889
is said to be
multiplicative inverse or reciprocal of another rational number 119886119886119887119887
if 119886119886119887119887
X 119888119888119889119889
= 1 Eg
Rational Number Multiplicative Inverse 5

minus37
minus73
Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals
c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative
(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac
Assignment

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600
An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899
Different kinds of quadrilaterals
1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length
Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg
= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600
= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400
= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200
2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium
3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION
WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION
bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in
bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all
persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice
1 Define friction Write the factors affecting friction 2 Write any two harms of friction 3 Write any two advantages of friction 4 What is sliding friction 5 Why we fall down when we stop on banana peel 6 In which direction frictional force acts on a moving object 7 What is easier- rolling or sliding 8 How does the friction get affected by the nature of surface 9 What happens if the floor we walk on is friction less 10 The sole of shoes get worn after some time Explain why 11 What happens when there is no friction between the chalk and the blackboard 12 Why do kabaddi players rub their hands with soil 13 What is a fluid friction Write the factors on which fluid friction depends 14 Why vehicles slow down when brakes are applied 15 Friction opposes the ________ between the surfaces in contact with each other 16 Friction produces
a Light b alpha rays c Heat d All of the above 17 Force of friction is greater in case of rough surface or smooth surface 18 Write different types of friction 19 Give examples to support the statement that- ldquofriction is important for most of our day
to day activitiesrdquo 20 Give an example to show friction produces heat 21 Why trucks tyres are treaded 22 Why sole of shoes are grooved 23 Powder is sprinkled on the carom board to reduce ____________________ 24 Define lubricants Give two examples 25 What is spring balance 26 Rolling increases friction True False 27 Why sliding is replaced by rolling in most of the machines 28 Common name of gases and liquid is ________________ 29 Define drag How it can be reduced 30 Arrange forces due to rolling static and sliding frictions in a decreasing order

119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34
4minus7
etc
Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be in standard
form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36
minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)
(minus42) 119883119883 (minus1) = minus36 divide 6

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

minus73
Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals
c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative
(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600
An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899
Different kinds of quadrilaterals
1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length
Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg
= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600
= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400
= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200
2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium
3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium
4 Parallelogram A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram Properties of a parallelogram In a parallelogram
a) Opposite sides are equal b) Opposite angles are equal c) Diagonals bisect each other d) Adjacent angles are supplementary

Ch11 Force And Pressure
FORCE
A push or pull acting on an object is called force
An interaction of one object with another object results in a force between the two objects
Force has magnitude as well as direction It is vector quantity
The SI unit of force is newton(N)
EFFECTS OF FORCE ON AN OBJECT
1 A force can move a stationary object 2 A force can stop a moving object 3 A force can change the speed of a moving object 4 A force can change the direction of a moving object 5 A force can change the shape and size of an object
Note A change in either the speed of an object or is direction of motion or both is known as a change in its state of motion RESULTANT FORCE CASE1 when two or more forces act on an object in same direction then their resultant is equal to the sum of their magnitude The direction of the resultant remains the same CASE 2 When two forces act on object in opposite direction then their resultant is equal to the difference of their magnitude The direction of resultant is along the force of larger magnitude CONTACT AND NON-CONTACT FORCES CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is in contact with the object the applied force is called contact force eg- muscular forcefrictional force etc NON ndash CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is not in contact with the object the applied force is called non- contact force eg- magnetic force electrostatic force gravitational force etc PRESSURE Force acting per unit area is called pressure ie Pressure= ForceArea The SI unit of pressure is pascal(Pa) Note Pressure is directly proportional to the applied force and inversely proportional to the suface area PRESSURE EXERTED BY LIQUIDS AND GASES All the liquids and gases exert pressure on the bottom and walls of their containers Note 1 Pressure exerted by liquid at the bottom of the container depends on the height o its
column(Activity 118) 2 A liquid exert pressure on the walls of the container(Activity 119) 3 Liquids exert equal pressure at the same depth(Activity 1110)
ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE The atmospheric air extends upto many kilometres above the surface of the earthThe pressure exerted by this air is known as atmospheric pressure Atmospheric pressure is equal to the weight of air present in a very tall column of air standing on 1m2 area of the earth Working of dropperrubber sucker etc are based on atmospheric pressure Questions for practice 1 What is force write its SI unit 2 Write the possible effects of force on an object 3 What is meant by a contact force Give examples 4 What is meant by a non- contact force Give examples 5 Two forces of magnitudes 8N and 3N act on an object Find the resultant force when
they act along a)same direction and b)opposite direction 6 Explain an activity with labelled diagram showing liquid exert pressure at the bottom of
the container 7 Explain an activity with labelled diagram showing liquid exert pressure on the walls of
the container 8 What is pressure Write its SI unit 9 Explain whyschool bags are are provided with wide straps to carry them 10 Calculate the pressure when a force of 200N is exerted on an area of 5m2 11 What is meant by atmospheric pressure Name two devices that work on atmospheric

Ch11 Force And Pressure
FORCE
A push or pull acting on an object is called force
An interaction of one object with another object results in a force between the two objects
Force has magnitude as well as direction It is vector quantity
The SI unit of force is newton(N)
EFFECTS OF FORCE ON AN OBJECT
1 A force can move a stationary object 2 A force can stop a moving object 3 A force can change the speed of a moving object 4 A force can change the direction of a moving object 5 A force can change the shape and size of an object
Note A change in either the speed of an object or is direction of motion or both is known as a change in its state of motion RESULTANT FORCE CASE1 when two or more forces act on an object in same direction then their resultant is equal to the sum of their magnitude The direction of the resultant remains the same CASE 2 When two forces act on object in opposite direction then their resultant is equal to the difference of their magnitude The direction of resultant is along the force of larger magnitude CONTACT AND NON-CONTACT FORCES CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is in contact with the object the applied force is called contact force eg- muscular forcefrictional force etc NON ndash CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is not in contact with the object the applied force is called non- contact force eg- magnetic force electrostatic force gravitational force etc PRESSURE Force acting per unit area is called pressure ie Pressure= ForceArea The SI unit of pressure is pascal(Pa) Note Pressure is directly proportional to the applied force and inversely proportional to the suface area PRESSURE EXERTED BY LIQUIDS AND GASES All the liquids and gases exert pressure on the bottom and walls of their containers Note 1 Pressure exerted by liquid at the bottom of the container depends on the height o its

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION
WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION
bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in
bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all
persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed
bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold
bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country
bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people
bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders
bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups
bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority
bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in
THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES
bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures
bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution
FEDERALISM

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country
bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS
bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute
exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State
as well as against other individuals
bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

PHYSICS
Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice

119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34
4minus7
etc
Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be in standard
form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36
minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

minus73
Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals
c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative
(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600
An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899
Different kinds of quadrilaterals
1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length
Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg
= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600
= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400
= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200
2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium
3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium
4 Parallelogram A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram Properties of a parallelogram In a parallelogram
a) Opposite sides are equal b) Opposite angles are equal c) Diagonals bisect each other d) Adjacent angles are supplementary

Synthetic fibres and plastics) Fibre
The cloths which we wear are made up of fabrics Fabrics are made from fibres obtained from natural or artificial fibres Fibres are also used for making a large variety of household articles
Polymer A polymer is a substance composed of many repeated similar sub units The simplest molecule from which the repeating units are obtained is called monomer and the process of formation of a polymer from monomer is termed as polymerisation Synthetic Fibre Synthetic Fibres are those which are made by man in the laboratories These are called man made or artificial fibres Eg- Rayon Nylon and Polyester Natural Fibre The naturally occurring fibres that human derive from plants or animals are known as natural fibres Eg- Cotton Wool Silk etc Classification of synthetic fibre
Synthetic Fibre 1 Rayon Artificial Silk 2 Nylon 3 Polyester 4 Acrylic 1 Rayon Artificial Silk It is the first man made Fibre It is obtained from chemical treatment of wood pulp The process of making it in Europe is known as Viscose Process Rayon is mixed with cotton to make bed sheets or mixed with wool to make carpets 2 Nylon Nylon (word comes from ldquoNyrdquo=New York and ldquolonrdquo=London) was the first fully synthetic fibre prepared from coal water and air Fibre is strong elastic light lustrous and easy to wash It is used on a large scale in the preparation of carpets textile fibres bristles for brushes track suits rope etc

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8
CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION
WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION
bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in
bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all
persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed
bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold
bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country
bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people
bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders
bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups
bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority
bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in
THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES
bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures
bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution
FEDERALISM
bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government
bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre
PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT
bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives
SEPARATION OF POWERS
bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for
implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country
bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS
bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute
exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State
as well as against other individuals
bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES
bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses
SECULARISM
bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

PHYSICS
Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice
1 Define friction Write the factors affecting friction 2 Write any two harms of friction 3 Write any two advantages of friction 4 What is sliding friction 5 Why we fall down when we stop on banana peel 6 In which direction frictional force acts on a moving object 7 What is easier- rolling or sliding 8 How does the friction get affected by the nature of surface 9 What happens if the floor we walk on is friction less 10 The sole of shoes get worn after some time Explain why 11 What happens when there is no friction between the chalk and the blackboard 12 Why do kabaddi players rub their hands with soil 13 What is a fluid friction Write the factors on which fluid friction depends 14 Why vehicles slow down when brakes are applied 15 Friction opposes the ________ between the surfaces in contact with each other 16 Friction produces
a Light b alpha rays c Heat d All of the above 17 Force of friction is greater in case of rough surface or smooth surface 18 Write different types of friction 19 Give examples to support the statement that- ldquofriction is important for most of our day
to day activitiesrdquo 20 Give an example to show friction produces heat 21 Why trucks tyres are treaded 22 Why sole of shoes are grooved 23 Powder is sprinkled on the carom board to reduce ____________________ 24 Define lubricants Give two examples 25 What is spring balance 26 Rolling increases friction True False 27 Why sliding is replaced by rolling in most of the machines 28 Common name of gases and liquid is ________________ 29 Define drag How it can be reduced 30 Arrange forces due to rolling static and sliding frictions in a decreasing order

Assignment Topic RATIONAL NUMBERS Definition A number of the form 119901119901
119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34
4minus7
etc
Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be in standard
form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36
minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)
(minus42) 119883119883 (minus1) = minus36 divide 6
42 divide 6 = minus6

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups
bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority
bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in
THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES
bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures
bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution
FEDERALISM
bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government
bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre
PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT
bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives
SEPARATION OF POWERS
bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for
implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country
bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS
bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute
exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State
as well as against other individuals
bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice
1 Define friction Write the factors affecting friction 2 Write any two harms of friction 3 Write any two advantages of friction 4 What is sliding friction 5 Why we fall down when we stop on banana peel 6 In which direction frictional force acts on a moving object 7 What is easier- rolling or sliding 8 How does the friction get affected by the nature of surface 9 What happens if the floor we walk on is friction less 10 The sole of shoes get worn after some time Explain why 11 What happens when there is no friction between the chalk and the blackboard 12 Why do kabaddi players rub their hands with soil 13 What is a fluid friction Write the factors on which fluid friction depends 14 Why vehicles slow down when brakes are applied 15 Friction opposes the ________ between the surfaces in contact with each other 16 Friction produces
a Light b alpha rays c Heat d All of the above 17 Force of friction is greater in case of rough surface or smooth surface 18 Write different types of friction 19 Give examples to support the statement that- ldquofriction is important for most of our day
to day activitiesrdquo 20 Give an example to show friction produces heat 21 Why trucks tyres are treaded 22 Why sole of shoes are grooved 23 Powder is sprinkled on the carom board to reduce ____________________ 24 Define lubricants Give two examples 25 What is spring balance 26 Rolling increases friction True False 27 Why sliding is replaced by rolling in most of the machines 28 Common name of gases and liquid is ________________ 29 Define drag How it can be reduced 30 Arrange forces due to rolling static and sliding frictions in a decreasing order

119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34
4minus7
etc
Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be in standard
form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36
minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

minus73
Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals
c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative
(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600
An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899
Different kinds of quadrilaterals
1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length
Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg
= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600
= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400
= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200
2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium
3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium
4 Parallelogram A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram Properties of a parallelogram In a parallelogram
a) Opposite sides are equal b) Opposite angles are equal c) Diagonals bisect each other d) Adjacent angles are supplementary

FORCE
A push or pull acting on an object is called force
An interaction of one object with another object results in a force between the two objects
Force has magnitude as well as direction It is vector quantity
The SI unit of force is newton(N)
EFFECTS OF FORCE ON AN OBJECT
1 A force can move a stationary object 2 A force can stop a moving object 3 A force can change the speed of a moving object 4 A force can change the direction of a moving object 5 A force can change the shape and size of an object
Note A change in either the speed of an object or is direction of motion or both is known as a change in its state of motion RESULTANT FORCE CASE1 when two or more forces act on an object in same direction then their resultant is equal to the sum of their magnitude The direction of the resultant remains the same CASE 2 When two forces act on object in opposite direction then their resultant is equal to the difference of their magnitude The direction of resultant is along the force of larger magnitude CONTACT AND NON-CONTACT FORCES CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is in contact with the object the applied force is called contact force eg- muscular forcefrictional force etc NON ndash CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is not in contact with the object the applied force is called non- contact force eg- magnetic force electrostatic force gravitational force etc PRESSURE Force acting per unit area is called pressure ie Pressure= ForceArea The SI unit of pressure is pascal(Pa) Note Pressure is directly proportional to the applied force and inversely proportional to the suface area PRESSURE EXERTED BY LIQUIDS AND GASES All the liquids and gases exert pressure on the bottom and walls of their containers Note 1 Pressure exerted by liquid at the bottom of the container depends on the height o its
column(Activity 118) 2 A liquid exert pressure on the walls of the container(Activity 119) 3 Liquids exert equal pressure at the same depth(Activity 1110)
ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE The atmospheric air extends upto many kilometres above the surface of the earthThe pressure exerted by this air is known as atmospheric pressure Atmospheric pressure is equal to the weight of air present in a very tall column of air standing on 1m2 area of the earth Working of dropperrubber sucker etc are based on atmospheric pressure Questions for practice 1 What is force write its SI unit 2 Write the possible effects of force on an object 3 What is meant by a contact force Give examples 4 What is meant by a non- contact force Give examples 5 Two forces of magnitudes 8N and 3N act on an object Find the resultant force when
they act along a)same direction and b)opposite direction 6 Explain an activity with labelled diagram showing liquid exert pressure at the bottom of

A push or pull acting on an object is called force
An interaction of one object with another object results in a force between the two objects
Force has magnitude as well as direction It is vector quantity
The SI unit of force is newton(N)
EFFECTS OF FORCE ON AN OBJECT
1 A force can move a stationary object 2 A force can stop a moving object 3 A force can change the speed of a moving object 4 A force can change the direction of a moving object 5 A force can change the shape and size of an object
Note A change in either the speed of an object or is direction of motion or both is known as a change in its state of motion RESULTANT FORCE CASE1 when two or more forces act on an object in same direction then their resultant is equal to the sum of their magnitude The direction of the resultant remains the same CASE 2 When two forces act on object in opposite direction then their resultant is equal to the difference of their magnitude The direction of resultant is along the force of larger magnitude CONTACT AND NON-CONTACT FORCES CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is in contact with the object the applied force is called contact force eg- muscular forcefrictional force etc NON ndash CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is not in contact with the object the applied force is called non- contact force eg- magnetic force electrostatic force gravitational force etc PRESSURE Force acting per unit area is called pressure ie Pressure= ForceArea The SI unit of pressure is pascal(Pa) Note Pressure is directly proportional to the applied force and inversely proportional to the suface area PRESSURE EXERTED BY LIQUIDS AND GASES All the liquids and gases exert pressure on the bottom and walls of their containers Note 1 Pressure exerted by liquid at the bottom of the container depends on the height o its
column(Activity 118) 2 A liquid exert pressure on the walls of the container(Activity 119) 3 Liquids exert equal pressure at the same depth(Activity 1110)

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8
CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION
WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION
bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in
bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all
persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed
bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold
bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country
bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people
bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders
bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups
bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority
bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in
THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution
FEDERALISM

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country
bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State
as well as against other individuals

PHYSICS
Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600
An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine
Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

Here Zn gt Cu hence displaces copper from CuSO4 and form ZnSO4 and Cu
b) FeSO4 + Cu rarr No displacement reaction
In this example Cu lt Fe hence copper does not displace iron USES OF METALS AND NON- METALS Uses of some metals-
a Iron Copper and aluminium are used to make cooking utensils and water boilers
b Copper is used for making electric wires
c Aluminium foils are used for packaging medicines chocolates etc Aluminium is also used to make aeroplanes
d Zinc metal is used for galvanizing iron to protect it from rusting
e Silver gold are used to make jewellery
Uses of non- metals- Some of the important uses are as follows-
a Oxygen is used for breathing by plants animals and human beings
b Nitrogen is used for making fertilizers
c Chlorine is used in the water purification process
d Iodine is used to make purple- coloured solution called lsquotincture iodinersquo which is used as an antiseptic

CLASS 8
CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat
PRACTICE QUESTIONS
1 Pick out the odd one from the following words given in the box and give reason for it Plough seed Drill Hoe chain Pump Sickle
2 If you are given a dry piece of land for cultivation what will you do before sowing the seeds
3 State whether the following statements are True or False Correct the false statements (i) Using good quality seed is the only criterion to get high yield (ii) Growing different crops in different seasons in the same field will deplete the soil of nutrients (iii) All crop plants are sown as seeds in the field (iv) Cells of root nodules of leguminous plants fix nitrogen (v) Freshly harvested grains must be dried before storing

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION
bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in
bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all
persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed
bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold
bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country
bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people
bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders
bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups
bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority
bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in
THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES
bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures
bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution
FEDERALISM
bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government
bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre
PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT
bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives
SEPARATION OF POWERS
bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for
implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country
bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS
bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute
exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State
as well as against other individuals
bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES
bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice
1 Define friction Write the factors affecting friction 2 Write any two harms of friction 3 Write any two advantages of friction 4 What is sliding friction 5 Why we fall down when we stop on banana peel 6 In which direction frictional force acts on a moving object 7 What is easier- rolling or sliding 8 How does the friction get affected by the nature of surface 9 What happens if the floor we walk on is friction less 10 The sole of shoes get worn after some time Explain why 11 What happens when there is no friction between the chalk and the blackboard 12 Why do kabaddi players rub their hands with soil 13 What is a fluid friction Write the factors on which fluid friction depends 14 Why vehicles slow down when brakes are applied 15 Friction opposes the ________ between the surfaces in contact with each other 16 Friction produces
a Light b alpha rays c Heat d All of the above 17 Force of friction is greater in case of rough surface or smooth surface 18 Write different types of friction 19 Give examples to support the statement that- ldquofriction is important for most of our day
to day activitiesrdquo 20 Give an example to show friction produces heat 21 Why trucks tyres are treaded 22 Why sole of shoes are grooved 23 Powder is sprinkled on the carom board to reduce ____________________ 24 Define lubricants Give two examples 25 What is spring balance 26 Rolling increases friction True False 27 Why sliding is replaced by rolling in most of the machines 28 Common name of gases and liquid is ________________ 29 Define drag How it can be reduced 30 Arrange forces due to rolling static and sliding frictions in a decreasing order

119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34
4minus7
etc
Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be in standard
form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36
minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)
(minus42) 119883119883 (minus1) = minus36 divide 6

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

minus73
Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals
c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative
(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication
Assignment

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600
An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899
Different kinds of quadrilaterals
1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length
Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg
= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600
= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400
= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200
2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium
3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium
4 Parallelogram A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram Properties of a parallelogram In a parallelogram
a) Opposite sides are equal b) Opposite angles are equal c) Diagonals bisect each other d) Adjacent angles are supplementary

FORCE
A push or pull acting on an object is called force
An interaction of one object with another object results in a force between the two objects
Force has magnitude as well as direction It is vector quantity
The SI unit of force is newton(N)
EFFECTS OF FORCE ON AN OBJECT
1 A force can move a stationary object 2 A force can stop a moving object 3 A force can change the speed of a moving object 4 A force can change the direction of a moving object 5 A force can change the shape and size of an object
Note A change in either the speed of an object or is direction of motion or both is known as a change in its state of motion RESULTANT FORCE CASE1 when two or more forces act on an object in same direction then their resultant is equal to the sum of their magnitude The direction of the resultant remains the same CASE 2 When two forces act on object in opposite direction then their resultant is equal to the difference of their magnitude The direction of resultant is along the force of larger magnitude CONTACT AND NON-CONTACT FORCES CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is in contact with the object the applied force is called contact force eg- muscular forcefrictional force etc NON ndash CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is not in contact with the object the applied force is called non- contact force eg- magnetic force electrostatic force gravitational force etc PRESSURE Force acting per unit area is called pressure ie Pressure= ForceArea The SI unit of pressure is pascal(Pa) Note Pressure is directly proportional to the applied force and inversely proportional to the suface area PRESSURE EXERTED BY LIQUIDS AND GASES All the liquids and gases exert pressure on the bottom and walls of their containers Note 1 Pressure exerted by liquid at the bottom of the container depends on the height o its
column(Activity 118) 2 A liquid exert pressure on the walls of the container(Activity 119) 3 Liquids exert equal pressure at the same depth(Activity 1110)
ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE The atmospheric air extends upto many kilometres above the surface of the earthThe pressure exerted by this air is known as atmospheric pressure Atmospheric pressure is equal to the weight of air present in a very tall column of air standing on 1m2 area of the earth Working of dropperrubber sucker etc are based on atmospheric pressure Questions for practice 1 What is force write its SI unit 2 Write the possible effects of force on an object 3 What is meant by a contact force Give examples 4 What is meant by a non- contact force Give examples 5 Two forces of magnitudes 8N and 3N act on an object Find the resultant force when

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed
bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold
bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State
as well as against other individuals

PHYSICS
Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice

Assignment Topic RATIONAL NUMBERS Definition A number of the form 119901119901
119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34
4minus7
etc
Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be in standard
form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36
minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)
(minus42) 119883119883 (minus1) = minus36 divide 6
42 divide 6 = minus6

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg
Rational Number Additive Inverse 6

(7) Reciprocal or Multiplicative Inverse A rational number 119888119888119889119889
is said to be

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT
bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives
SEPARATION OF POWERS
bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for
implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country
bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice
1 Define friction Write the factors affecting friction 2 Write any two harms of friction 3 Write any two advantages of friction 4 What is sliding friction 5 Why we fall down when we stop on banana peel 6 In which direction frictional force acts on a moving object 7 What is easier- rolling or sliding 8 How does the friction get affected by the nature of surface 9 What happens if the floor we walk on is friction less 10 The sole of shoes get worn after some time Explain why 11 What happens when there is no friction between the chalk and the blackboard 12 Why do kabaddi players rub their hands with soil 13 What is a fluid friction Write the factors on which fluid friction depends 14 Why vehicles slow down when brakes are applied 15 Friction opposes the ________ between the surfaces in contact with each other 16 Friction produces
a Light b alpha rays c Heat d All of the above 17 Force of friction is greater in case of rough surface or smooth surface 18 Write different types of friction 19 Give examples to support the statement that- ldquofriction is important for most of our day
to day activitiesrdquo 20 Give an example to show friction produces heat 21 Why trucks tyres are treaded 22 Why sole of shoes are grooved 23 Powder is sprinkled on the carom board to reduce ____________________ 24 Define lubricants Give two examples 25 What is spring balance 26 Rolling increases friction True False 27 Why sliding is replaced by rolling in most of the machines 28 Common name of gases and liquid is ________________ 29 Define drag How it can be reduced 30 Arrange forces due to rolling static and sliding frictions in a decreasing order

Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals
c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative
(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600
An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899
Different kinds of quadrilaterals
1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length
Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8
CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION
WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION
bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in
bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all
persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed
bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold
bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country
bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people
bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders
bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups
bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority
bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in
THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES
bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures
bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution
FEDERALISM
bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government
bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre
PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT
bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives
SEPARATION OF POWERS
bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for
implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country
bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS
bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute
exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State
as well as against other individuals
bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES
bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses
SECULARISM
bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us
ASSIGNMENT
1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice
1 Define friction Write the factors affecting friction 2 Write any two harms of friction 3 Write any two advantages of friction 4 What is sliding friction 5 Why we fall down when we stop on banana peel 6 In which direction frictional force acts on a moving object 7 What is easier- rolling or sliding 8 How does the friction get affected by the nature of surface 9 What happens if the floor we walk on is friction less 10 The sole of shoes get worn after some time Explain why 11 What happens when there is no friction between the chalk and the blackboard 12 Why do kabaddi players rub their hands with soil 13 What is a fluid friction Write the factors on which fluid friction depends 14 Why vehicles slow down when brakes are applied 15 Friction opposes the ________ between the surfaces in contact with each other 16 Friction produces
a Light b alpha rays c Heat d All of the above 17 Force of friction is greater in case of rough surface or smooth surface 18 Write different types of friction 19 Give examples to support the statement that- ldquofriction is important for most of our day
to day activitiesrdquo 20 Give an example to show friction produces heat 21 Why trucks tyres are treaded 22 Why sole of shoes are grooved 23 Powder is sprinkled on the carom board to reduce ____________________ 24 Define lubricants Give two examples 25 What is spring balance 26 Rolling increases friction True False 27 Why sliding is replaced by rolling in most of the machines 28 Common name of gases and liquid is ________________ 29 Define drag How it can be reduced 30 Arrange forces due to rolling static and sliding frictions in a decreasing order

Assignment Topic RATIONAL NUMBERS Definition A number of the form 119901119901
119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34
4minus7
etc
Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be in standard
form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36
minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)
(minus42) 119883119883 (minus1) = minus36 divide 6

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals
c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative
(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600
An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899
Different kinds of quadrilaterals
1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length
Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg
= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600
= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400
= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200
2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION
WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION
bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in
bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all
persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed
bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold
bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country
bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people
bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders
bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups
bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority
bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in
THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES
bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures
bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice
1 Define friction Write the factors affecting friction 2 Write any two harms of friction 3 Write any two advantages of friction 4 What is sliding friction 5 Why we fall down when we stop on banana peel 6 In which direction frictional force acts on a moving object 7 What is easier- rolling or sliding 8 How does the friction get affected by the nature of surface 9 What happens if the floor we walk on is friction less 10 The sole of shoes get worn after some time Explain why 11 What happens when there is no friction between the chalk and the blackboard 12 Why do kabaddi players rub their hands with soil 13 What is a fluid friction Write the factors on which fluid friction depends 14 Why vehicles slow down when brakes are applied 15 Friction opposes the ________ between the surfaces in contact with each other 16 Friction produces
a Light b alpha rays c Heat d All of the above 17 Force of friction is greater in case of rough surface or smooth surface 18 Write different types of friction 19 Give examples to support the statement that- ldquofriction is important for most of our day
to day activitiesrdquo 20 Give an example to show friction produces heat 21 Why trucks tyres are treaded 22 Why sole of shoes are grooved 23 Powder is sprinkled on the carom board to reduce ____________________ 24 Define lubricants Give two examples 25 What is spring balance 26 Rolling increases friction True False 27 Why sliding is replaced by rolling in most of the machines 28 Common name of gases and liquid is ________________ 29 Define drag How it can be reduced 30 Arrange forces due to rolling static and sliding frictions in a decreasing order
a rolling sliding static b sliding static rolling c static sliding rolling d None of these

Assignment Topic RATIONAL NUMBERS Definition A number of the form 119901119901
119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34
4minus7
etc
Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be in standard
form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36
minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals
c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative
(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed
bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold
bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State
as well as against other individuals

PHYSICS
Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice

119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational
number Eg 14 minus3
5 5
7 etc
Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901
119902119902 is said to be
positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative
Eg 34 minus8
minus5 etc
A rational number 119901119901119902119902
is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is
positive and q is negative or vice-versa
Eg minus34

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals
c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative
(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac
Assignment

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600
An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899
Different kinds of quadrilaterals
1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length
Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg
= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600
= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400
= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200
2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate
Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire
Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well
Crop Rotation
bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility
bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored
Protecting from Weeds
Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop
bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light
Tilling
bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds
Manual Removal
bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically
Weedicides
bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop
Harvesting
bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature
Methods of Harvesting
bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is
used
Threshing
bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all
the grain seeds
Winnowing
bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind
bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down
Storage
bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal
infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes
Granaries
bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored
Animal Husbandry
bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all
persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed
bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold
bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country
bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people
bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders
bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups
bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority
bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in
THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country
bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State
as well as against other individuals

Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b
(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined
(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers
(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers
(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a
(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a
(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation
Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation
In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals
Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve
Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle
Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS
We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have
Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon
Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal
Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if
(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior
Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon
Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if
(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal
Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons
Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800
Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals
IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin
sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc
Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc
Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc
Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P
Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc
Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity
Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag
Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc
Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS
Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash
i Mg + O2 rarr MgO
MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2
(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O
(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )
Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow
a S + O2 rarr SO2
b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3
( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and
hydrogen gas are formed
The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water
A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene
Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6
Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only
Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus
Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-
Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas
Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas
NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2
Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow
K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au
We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals
DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-
A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT
Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop
Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops
Preparation of Soil
bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools
Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough
Plough
bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil
bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs
Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling
Cultivator
bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster
Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can
say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms
Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler
Advantages of leveling
1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation
Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility
Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients
Sowing
bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough
Quality of the Seeds
bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds
sink
Traditional Tools
bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends
will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there
Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows
Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield
Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth
Transplantation
In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy
Adding Manure and Fertilisers
ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase
their fertility
bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals
Difference between Manure and Fertilizers
Fertilizer Manure
Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste
Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms
Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities
Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less
Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil
Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution
bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases
Irrigation It is supplying water to plants
Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well
Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-
Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants
Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well
Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes
Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes
Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows
Sprinkler System
In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping
It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall
Drip system
In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation
A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour
Uses It is helpful in translocation of food
It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Ch12 FRICTION
FRICTION
The opposing force that comes into play when one object tries to move over the surface of other or actually moving over the surface of other is called friction
The force of friction acts opposite to the direction in which an object moves or tends to move
Friction is caused by the interlocking of irregularities in the surfaces of the two objects which are in contact with each other
Types of friction
1) Static friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is trying to move over the surface of other but actual motion has not started
2) Kinetic friction it is the opposing force that comes into play when one object is actually moving over the surface of other It is of two types- a) Sliding friction b) Rolling friction
Note rolling friction is less than sliding friction due to less extent of interlocking
Factors affecting friction
1) Friction depends on the nature of the two surfaces in contact When the two surfaces in contact are smooth then the friction between them will be small because the interlocking of smooth surfaces is less As the degree of roughness of the two surfaces in contact increases the friction also increases
2) Friction depends on the force with which two surfaces are pressed together Greater the weight of an object Which moves over another surface greater will be the friction between them It is because heavier object presses the surface more hardly
Spring balance
It is a device which is used for measuring force acting on an object
A spring balance consists of a coiled spring which gets stretched when a force is applied on it Stretching of the spring is measured by a pointer moving on a graduated scale The reading on the scale gives the magnitude of the force
Friction A Necessary Evil
Friction plays an important role in our daily life In some cases friction is useful and we want to keep it but in other cases friction is harmful and we wish to reduce it So it is a necessary evil
Advantages of friction
1) Friction enables us to walk without slipping
2) Friction enables a car to move on road without skidding 3) Friction enables us to write and draw on paper 4) Friction enables us to pick up and things in our hands 5) Nails can be fixed in a wall due to friction Etc
Disadvantages of friction
1) Friction wears away the soles of our shoes 2) The tyres of vehicles wear out gradually due to friction 3) Friction wears out the rubbing machine parts 4) Friction produces heat which may damage machines 5) Friction reduces the efficiency of machines Etc
Methods of Increasing Friction
1) Grooves are made in the soles of shoes to increase friction at prevent slipping 2) Treads are made in the tyres of vehicles to increase friction and prevent skidding of vehicles
on wet roads 3) Spikes are provided in the shoes of athletes to increase friction and prevent slipping 4) Gymnasts apply some coarse substance on their hands to increase friction for better grip
Etc
Methods of reducing friction
1) Friction can be reduced by making the surfaces smooth by polishing 2) Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants (oilGrease etc) to the rubbing surfaces 3) Friction can be reduced by applying wheels to move objects 4) Friction can be reduced by applying ball bearings between the moving parts of machines Etc
Fluid friction
There is a friction whenever moves through a fluid (air or water) It is called fluid friction The frictional force exerted by a fluid is also called drag
The magnitude of frictional force exerted by a fluid on an object moving through it depends on following factors
1) Speed of the object 2) Shape of the object 3) Size of the object 4) Nature of the fluid
Methods of reducing Fluid Friction
The fluid friction can be reduced by giving special shapes called lsquostreamlined shape lsquo to the object which move through fluids
Questions for practice
1 Define friction Write the factors affecting friction 2 Write any two harms of friction 3 Write any two advantages of friction 4 What is sliding friction 5 Why we fall down when we stop on banana peel 6 In which direction frictional force acts on a moving object 7 What is easier- rolling or sliding 8 How does the friction get affected by the nature of surface 9 What happens if the floor we walk on is friction less 10 The sole of shoes get worn after some time Explain why 11 What happens when there is no friction between the chalk and the blackboard 12 Why do kabaddi players rub their hands with soil 13 What is a fluid friction Write the factors on which fluid friction depends 14 Why vehicles slow down when brakes are applied 15 Friction opposes the ________ between the surfaces in contact with each other 16 Friction produces
a Light b alpha rays c Heat d All of the above 17 Force of friction is greater in case of rough surface or smooth surface 18 Write different types of friction 19 Give examples to support the statement that- ldquofriction is important for most of our day
