CBSE Class 7 notes. Understanding the features and attributes of motion and time
measurement is beneficial to students. Better retention is facilitated by the well-structured
framework, which facilitates effective revision. The subject is better understood through
real-world examples such as measuring time and comprehending how objects move.

These notes are crucial for achieving academic success and laying a solid foundation in the
fascinating field of motion and time. They have shown to be quite helpful in assisting pupils in
achieving academic success.

CBSE Class 7 Science Notes Chapter 13


Motion

Motion is the movement of an object or the tendency of an object to move about time from its
original location.

Motions include, for instance, the pendulum of a clock moving, leaves falling from trees, etc.

The exact path that an object travels in a specific amount of time is called its distance. The
shortest distance an object travels in a specific amount of time is its displacement. Calculating
distance involves multiplying speed by time. Meters and kilometers are used to express the
distance.

When an object's position changes throughout time, as when an automobile travels down the
road, it remains in motion. If an object remains in the same location concerning time, it is said to
be at rest. similar to someone standing on the ground.
As a standard, time is measured in seconds, distance is measured in meters, and speed is
measured in meters per second.

The object moves in a straight line when it is linear or straight.

circular, where the thing follows a path that is circled.

Curvilinear refers to motion along a curve by the item.

Measuring Time
Many events in nature repeat after a time interval:

● Morning – The rising of the sun


● Day and Night – The time between the sunrise and sunset
● Month – The time between two new moons
● Year – The time the earth takes to complete its one revolution around the sun

Basics of Standard Units


Units and their standardization

● The standard unit of distance is in meters.


● The standard unit of time is in seconds (s).
● The standard unit of speed is in meters per second (m/s).

There are two types of motions

Uniform Motion: An object is said to be moving uniformly if it moves in a straight line at a


constant pace, meaning that its speed does not vary with time.
Non-Uniform Motion: An object is said to be moving non-uniformly if it is moving in a straight line
yet its speed varies over time.

Speed

Slow and Fast Motion


If one object covers a particular distance in less time and another object covers the same
distance in more time then the first object is said to be moving slowly while the second object is
said to be moving faster.

Measurement of Time

Time was once measured by the sun's shadow cast on various things.

Simple Pendulum: The best illustration of periodic motion is this kind of clock, which is used to
measure time.

Clocks, or time-measuring devices, measure time by applying the principle of periodic motion.
Its utilization of motion that repeats in equal intervals of time is indicated by this. Devices for
measuring time come in a variety of forms.
An object in to-and-fro motion is said to be in periodic or oscillatory motion.

Oscillation: The oscillatory movement.

The period is the length of time the pendulum takes to complete one full oscillation.

Seconds, represented by s, are the fundamental or SI unit of time.

Oscillatory motion: The pendulum's oscillatory motion is its to-and-fro motion. The pendulum's
bob does indeed shift from its center, or mean position, to its extreme location on the opposite
side.

Oscillation: One oscillation is defined as the bob moving from its center (mean position) to its
extreme ends.

A pendulum's period is defined as the length of time it takes the pendulum bob to complete one
oscillation.

Measuring Speed

A speedometer is a tool used to calculate a vehicle's speed in kilometers per hour.

An odometer is a tool used to calculate how far a car has traveled.

Distance-Time Graph

It is employed to investigate how an object moves.

On the Y-axis, the distance is displayed, and on the X-axis, the time.

When the distance-time graph is a straight line, the motion is uniform.

If the distance-time graph is rising, then the object's speed is rising.

An item is traveling at a slower speed if the distance-time graph is descending.

If the distance-time graph is parallel to the X-axis, the object is considered to be at rest.

The distance-time graph's slope indicates the object's speed.

The object's speed changes if the distance-time graph shows a curve.

Speedometer and Odometer

The vehicle's speed is directly recorded via the speedometer in kilometers per hour (km/h).
The direct distance traveled by car is measured in kilometers (km) using an odometer.
Visualizing Motion
Distance-time graph

● A distance-time graph is a graph plotted between the distance (in the y-axis) and time (in
the x-axis).
● The slope of a distance-time graph gives the speed of an object.

To find the speed of the distance-time graph


Speed can be calculated as follows: distance traveled/time = (final position – beginning
position)/time spent by the object

Additionally, a graph's slope can be used to calculate the speed of the distance-time graph. The
object's speed increases with the graph's steeper slope. For instance, object A has a sharper
slope in the graph below. This indicates that object A is traveling faster than object B.
