SECTION - C

This section has 2 case-study based questions (14 & 15). Each case is followed by three sub-questions (a, b & c). Part a & b are compulsory. However, an internal choice is provided in part c.

14. Read the following passage and answer the questions given below:

According to Universal law of gravitation, the force of gravitation between two particles/bodies is directly propotional to product of their masses and is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. G is a universal constant as it value remains the same throughout the universe.

14(a) What is the SI unit of G? (1)

14(b) How does the force of gravitation between two objects change when the distance between them is reduced to half? (1)

14(c) Calculate the force of gravitation between the earth and the sun, given that mass of the earth is 6 x 10²⁴ kg and of the sun is 2 x 10³⁰ kg. The average distance between the two is 1.5 x 10¹¹ m. (2)

Or

State any two importance of universal law of gravitation.

15. Read the following passage and answer the questions given below:

An atom is the smallest particle of matter. There are three sub-atomic particles of an atom i.e., electrons, protons and neutrons. The number of electrons gives the idea of the atomic number of an atom. The tendency to gain or lose electrons decides the charge on an atom.

15(a) What is the charge present on Sulphur atom? (1)

15(b) What would be the valency, if the atom has 3 protons and 4 neutrons in its nucleus? (1)

15(c) (i) What is atomicity? (2)

(ii) How many atoms are present in PO₄^3－ ion and NO₃ ion?
