9. Assertion: When we stop rowing the boat, it gradually slows down and finally comes to
rest. (1)
Reason: No force appears to be acting on the object yet its speed gradually decreases and it
comes to rest after some time .

Ans- Option C
10.Assertion: We can fill the medicine into the dropper due to atmospheric pressure.

13.A man is pushing a cart upwards against a slope. The cart moves very slowly, and he has
to apply more force to move it faster. Explain. (2)
(Hint) Gravity is pulling it down.
14. An archer shoots an arrow in the air horizontally. However, after moving some distance,
the arrow falls to the ground. Name the initial force that sets the arrow in motion. Explain
why the arrow ultimately falls?
(2)
15. How can we reduce the pressure exerted by the high rise buildings ?
(2)
16. Define (2)
a) Electrostatic force
b) Pressure

17.Two rods of the same weight and equal length have different thickness. They are held
vertically on the surface of sand as shown in Fig. Which one of them will sink move? Why?
(1+2)

18. Two women of same height apply same weight when they walk. But women
wearing sandal with flat heel is more comfortable while walking on sandy beach.
This is because flat soles have larger area compared to the sandals with pointed
heels. This smaller area make the sandals with pointed sole sink in the sand
which makes it difficult to walk on sand.
a. What is it difficult to walk on sand with pointed sole ? (2+1+1)
b.What is the relation between Area and pressure?
c. State the S.I units of pressure.
