P-1 Carbon Compounds — Science STD 10 — Question

What is the reaction called when oxidation and reduction take place simultaneously? Explain with one example.

Construction of a compound microscope:
(1) A compound microscope consists of a metal tube fitted with two convex lenses at the two ends. These lenses are called the objective lens (the lens directed towards the object) and the eyepiece (the lens directed towards the eye). Both the lenses are small in size, but the cross section of the objective lens is less than that of the eyepiece. The objective lens has a short focal length. The focal length of the eyepiece is more than that of the objective lens.(2) The metal tube is mounted on a stand. The principal axes of the objective lens and the eyepiece are along the same line. The distance between the object and the objective lens can be changed with a screw. It is possible to change the distance between the objective lens and the eyepiece.
Working:
(1) The object to be observed is illuminated and placed in front of the objective lens, slightly beyond the focal length of the objective lens. Its real, inverted and enlarged image is formed by the, objective lens on the other side.
(2) This intermediate image lies within the focal length of the eyepiece. It serves as an object for the eyepiece. The eyepiece works as a simple microscope. The final image is virtual, highly enlarged and inverted with respect to the original object. It can be formed at the minimum distance of distinct vision from the eyepiece. The final image is observed by keeping the eye close to the eyepiece.
Use: This microscope is used to observe blood cells, microorganisms, etc.
1.In a compound microscope, which lens has greater focal length?
2.Where do you place the object to be observed with a compound microscope?
3.State which distance is adjusted to observe the object with a compound microscope.
4.State the nature of the final image in compound microscope relative to the object.
5.State the use of a compound microscope.

Using the law of conservation of energy, obtain the expression for the escape velocity

What is an electromagnet? Describe the construction and working of an electromagnet with the help of a labelled diagram.

An organism A which cannot move from one place to another, makes a simple food B from the substances C and D available in the environment. This food is made in the presence of a green coloured substance E present in organs F in the presence of light energy in a process called G. Some of the simple food B also gets converted into a complex food H for storage purposes. The food H gives a blue-black colour with dilute iodine solution.

1. What is (i) organism A, (ii) food B and (iii) food H?
2. What are C and D?
3. Name (i) green coloured substance E, and (ii) organ F.
4. What is the process G?

The partially digested food coming from the stomach of a person enters a long and narrow organ A in his body. The organ A receives the secretion of two glands: liver and pancreas. Liver secretes a greenish - yellow liquid B which is normally stored in the organ C. Pancreas secretes pancreatic juice which contains three digestive enzymes D, E and F. The intestinal juice completes the process of digestion of food. The inner wall of organ A has millions of tiny finger - like projections G which help in the rapid absorption of digested food into blood stream. The undigested part of food then passes into wider tube H which absorbs most of the water from undigested food. The last part of tube H called I stores this undigested food (or waste) for some time. The undigested food is then passed out though opening J as faeces in the process known as K.

1. Name the organ A.
2. Name liquid B and organ C.
3. What are the digestive enzymes D, E and F?
4. Name the projections G present on the inner wall of organ A.
5. Name Tube H, Part I, Opening J and Process K.
