s.
Respected Principals, Correspondents, Head Masters / Head Mistresses, Teachers,
From the bottom of our heart, we at SURA Publications sincerely thank you for the support and

ok
patronage that you have extended to us for more than a decade.
It is in our sincerest effort we take the pride of releasing SURA’s Science Guide for 10th Standard

experience for over a decade in their respective subject fields. This Guide has been reviewed by a
o
reputed Professor who is currently serving as Head of the Department in an esteemed College.
With due respect to Teachers, I would like to mention that this guide will serve as a teaching
ab

companion to qualified teachers. Also, this guide will be an excellent learning companion to students
with exhaustive exercises and in-text questions in addition to precise answers for textual questions.
In complete cognizance of the dedicated role of Teachers, I completely believe that our students
ur

will learn the subject effectively with this guide and prove their excellence in Board Examinations.
I once again sincerely thank the Teachers, Parents and Students for supporting and valuing our efforts.
God Bless all.

Sura’s ➠ X Std - Science Laws of Motion

MUST KNOW DEFINITIONS

Linear momentum : The product of mass and velocity of a moving body gives the magnitude of its
linear momentum. It acts in the direction of the velocity of the body.

m
Like parallel : Two or more forces of equal or unequal magnitude acting along the same
forces direction parallel to each other.

co
Unlike parallel : If two or more forces are acting in opposite direction then they are called Unlike
parallel forces.

Resultant : When several forces act simultaneously on the same body, then the combined
effect of multiple forces can be represented by a single force, as resultant.

s.
Moment of the : Moment of the couple is measured by the product of any one of the forces and
couple the perpendicular distance between two forces.

ok
Impulse : When a force F acts on a body for a period of time t, then the product of force
and time is known as “impulse”.

Weight : Weight is equal to gravitational force. Also weight (W) = mass × acceleration
o
due to gravity. i.e W = mg

Mass : Mass of a body is defined as the quantity of matter contained in the object. Its SI
ab
Unit 1

unit is kilogram (kg).

Inertial mass : If mass is defined in association with force and inertia, it is termed as “inertial
mass”.
ur

Gravitational mass : When the mass of a body is defined in association with the gravitational field, it
is termed as “gravitational mass”.

Apparent weight : Apparent weight is the weight of the body acquired due to the action of gravity
.s

and other external forces on the body.

Weightlessness : Whenever a body or a person falls freely under the action of Earth’s gravitational
w

force alone, it appears to have zero weight. This state is referred to as

“weightlessness”.
