4 6. A boy throws h steel ball straight up. Consider the motion of the ball only after it has left the
boy's hand but before it touches the ground and assume that forces exerted by the ak are

negligible. For these conditions, the force(s) acting on the ball is (are):

(a) a downward force of gravity along with a steadily decreasing upward force.
(b) a steadily decreasing upward force from the moment it leaves the boy's hand until it
reaches its highest point; on the way down there is a steadily increasing downward force

of gravity as the object gets closer to the earth.

(g).constant downward force of gavity along with an upward force that steadily decreases
until the ball reaches its higbest point; on the way down there is only a constatrt
downward force of gravity.
(d) constant downward force of gravity only.

10. In rural areas, an indigenous way of keeping kitchen materials cool is to put them in a box and

wrap the box [Link] blanket; the b-laurke_!-is_kept wet as tap is allowed to drip in to its comer.
Choose the correct statement:

(a) This method works because the water from the tap is cold. If one uses room lemperaturc
water, it will not work.
t-
(b) Method will work only if the box is a bad conductor of heat. If one uses tin box. it will
not work.
(c) Method doesn't work.
This method works because the latent heat necessary for evaporation of water in the
idt
blanket is taken from the box so the box and its content remain cool.

E0. Rajiv, Nikhil, Shubha and Nilima wanted to establish a relationship between loss in weight of a

solid with weight of water displaced by immersing it in tap water an{ sea water. After

performing their experiment, they noted their observations for the same solid as follows:
Rajiv: Loss of weight of solid is more in tap water.
Nikhil: Loss of weight of solid is more in sea waler.

Shubha: Loss of weight of solid is equal in the tap water and the sea water.

Nilima: Loss of weight bf solid may be more in tap water or sea water, depending upon how
deeply it is immersed.
identify the correct observation.
