objt at rest moves only due to external force; eg person fall backward when train moves; mango falls down
- of motion
objt in motion stops due to ext force; eg person fall forward due to brake or while falling out of moving train
- of direction
objt in motion moves in straight line until ext force acts on it; eg person moves outward on road turns in bus
- newton's law

- 1st
an object at rest stays at rest, & an object in uni-motion stays in uni-motion unless an ext f acts on it
in other words, inertia changes only due to ext f
- 2nd (law of action and rxn)
every actn has an equal & opp rxn; eg recoiling of gun; rocket launch; walking; swimming
- momemtum or linear-momentum (p)
defn: product of mass and velocity for an objt moving in straight line; p=mv; SI unit is kgm/s
- law of conservation of linear momentum

sum of total momentum of both bodies b4 & after collision remains same; (m1u1+m2u2) = (m1v1+m2v2)
- 3 gravitation
phenomenon of attraction bw any 2 objt in universe
- newton's universal law of gravitatn
- every obj attracts other obj with a force which is
directly proportional to product of their masses (F @ m1m2)
inversely prop to square of distance bw their centre (F @ 1/ r^2
Gravitational force, F = Gm1m2/ (r^2) ; where G is Universal Gravitational Constant
- kepler's law

1st: every planet revolves around sun in elliptical orbit


2nd: equal area is covered in equal interval of time bw centre of sun and planets
3rd: T^2/ r^3 = k (constant); it is used to find time-period of planets
- acceleration due to gravity (g)
- relatn bw g and G

g = GM/ (R^2)
- variation of acceleration due to gravity (g)
at poles g is maximum as distance R is min
at equator g is minimum as distance R is max
- weight
force with which the body is attracted towards the centre of earth; w = mg; unit is N
moon's weight is 1/6th of earth's weight
- mass vs weight
qty of matter contained in an objt/ force with which objt is attracted to earth's centre
scaler/ vector
kg/ N
never 0/ is zero at centre of earth
- 4 floatation
- thrust
force acting normally (perpendicular) on a surface; unit is newton N; vector qty
- pressure (P)

thrust acting on unit area on a surface; P = F/A; unit is N/m^2 & Pascal (Pa)
- density

mass per unit volume; density = mass/volume; unit is kg/(m^3)


- fluid
substances which flow; eg. gas and liquids
- pascal's law
it states that pressure applied to fluid is equally transmitted in all dirctn & container-wall without loss
bouyant force: upward F acting on partially or wholly submerged objt; it causes objt to float
buoyancy: property of objt due to which objt float under upward F acting on partially or wholly submerged objt
- archimedes principle
a body immersed partially or wholly in a liquid experiences an upthrust which is = weight of liquid displaced
- 5 work energy
- work
- defn

work done (wd) by a F acting on an objt is = product of F & disp in dirctn of F; W = F x s;


unit is Nm or Joule J; scaler qty
- types
+ve work: if F and disp are in same dirctn
-ve work: if F and disp are in opposite dirctn
zero work: if F and disp are in perpendicular to each other
- energy
defn: capacity of doing work; unit is Joule J
- types
- kinetic energy KE:
energy due to motion; eg bullet fired from gun, wind energy; KE = 1/2 mv^2
- potential energy PE:
energy due to its position under gravity; eg lifted weight; water in reservoir; PE = mgh
- law of conservatn of energy

energy can neither be created or destroyed; it changes from one form to another
- energy transformatn

converting energy from one form to another; eg PE of water in reservoir is convertd into electricity thru dam
- 6 sound
- sound defn

mechanical energy in the form of vibratn which produces feeling of hearing sound
- compressn
region in longitudinal wave where particles are closer; occurs at crest
- rarefaction
region in longitudinal wave where particles are farther away; occurs at trough
- basic terminologies
- amplitude (A)

magnitude of max disturbance in medium


- frequency (f or neu)
number of cycles per second; unit is Hertz (Hz)
- range of f
sound wave or audible wave: 20 Hz TO 20 KHz (or 20,000 Hz)
infrasonic wave or infrasound: below 20 Hz; audible to elephants
ultrasonic wave or ultrasound: above 20 KHz; audible to dog, dolphin, bat etc
- time-period (T)
time-taken to complete one cycle; SI unit is second
- wavelength (lambda)
min distance in which sound wave repeat itself
- relations
f vs T: f = 1/T
speed of sound (v), frequency f, wavelength (lambda): v = f x lambda; sound-speed most in solid>liquid>air
- characteristics (char)
- loudness
measure of sound energy reaching ear per second; more amplitude = more energy = more loud
unit is Decibal (db); audible range in human is 20Hz to 20,000Hz
- pitch
sound char which is used to differentiate bw sound of same loudness; depends on f
- quality (timbre) of musical instruments
sound char which is used to diff bw sound of same loudness & pitch; depends on shape of sound wave
- echo

when sound is reflected from an obstacle within 0.1 sec


- reverberatn

when sound is reflected from an obstacle after 0.1 sec; reduced by carpetting floor; upholstering furniture
