PHYSICS
1) The southers hemisphere is tilted more towards the Sun, receives more sun light and hence
summer is there in southern hemisphere.
2) Even if you break a magnet into tiny pieces, each piece will still have both a North and a
South pole.
3)
Column - A Column - B
4) Aeroplane is at some height so it has potential energy and since it is moving so it has kinetic
energy also.
7) If you are trying to measure the length of a pencil by aligning it with a scale, the position of
your eye should be directly above the tip of the pencil.
8) Force by A = +50 N.
Force by B = –20 N.
Friction = –10 N (opposing motion).
Net force = 50 N – 20 N – 10 N = 20 N.
Since the net force is positive, it's in Student A's direction.
9) Diameter of ball = 9 – 2 = 7 cm
10) When magnetic materials are strongly heated, they lose their magnetism due to
randomization of magnetic domains.
N = 3000 steps
12) In A, toy cars 1 and 2 will come closer to each other and in B, 3 and 4 will move away from
each other. As like poles repel and unlike poles attract each other.
14) As the ball moves upward, its kinetic energy decreases and it gets converted into potential
energy.

20) Water kept in an earthen pot becomes cool after some time. This happens because water
seeps out through the tiny pores of the pot and evaporates. During evaporation, water takes
away heat from the remaining water inside the pot, making it cooler. Similarly, when we
sweat, the evaporation of sweat takes place and so heat is absorbed from our skin and have
cooling effect.
21) ORS, Glucose and Salt all three are soluble in water.
22) Assertion (A) - When water changes into ice, its volume increases due to empty space
between particles, and hence density decreases.
Reason (R) - Density of water is maximum at 4°C.
23)

25) All hard substances do not sink. Only those with higher density will sink. All soft
substances can be scratched easily. All soft substances will not float on water. Only those with
lower density will float on water.

29) Water scarcity and fewer plants make it hard for many organisms to survive in deserts.
33) Hibernation helps animals survive when food is scarce and it’s very cold.
36)
39) It allows them to avoid the extreme heat of the day. This question links a specific
behavioral adaptation (nocturnal activity) to the most significant environmental challenge of
deserts (daytime heat).
40) Calcium (Fish and rice are not primary sources of calcium, and weak bones are a classic
symptom of calcium deficiency. While fish might provide some iron, the bone weakness is the
key clue.) Weak bones point to calcium deficiency. Tiredness could point to iron, but weak
bones are a strong indicator of calcium.
42) Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason explains the assertion.
Balanced diet provide all the essential nutrients required by the body for proper growth and
development of the body.
MATHEMATICS
44) Factors 18 = 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
Factors 35 = 1, 5, 7, 35
Here 1 is the only common factor of 18 and 35.
∴ (18, 35) is coprime pair

Therefore, DIG = 168149
79) → 625C625D625A625B625B625
→ 625 × 625 ÷ 625 + 625 – 625 – 625
→ 625 × 1 + 625 – 625 – 625
→ 1250 – 1250 = 0
80)
∴ Horizontal distance = 5 + 5 = 10 km
Hence, the correct answer is option (2).

If he sees his shadow in front of him in the morning, when the sun is in the east, he is facing in
the west. So, as you see the figure, he must start in the direction of the north so that he faces
in the direction of his shadow. Hence, the correct answer is north.
