Answer key
- b
- c
- b
- a
- (a) – (v), (b) – (iii), (c) – (i), (d) – (iv), (e) – (ii).
- (a) meter (b) oscillatory (c) kilometers (d) rectilinear (e) area.
- Periodic motion refers to any movement of an object that is repeated at regular interval of time. For example, pendulum of clock, motion of the child on swing, earth revolving around Sun etc.
- S.I. unit of length is meter. It is represented by symbol “m”.
Periodic motion Non periodic motion It is repeated at regular interval of time. It is not repeated at regular interval of time. For example: movement of Earth around the Sun. For example: motion of our hands and legs during walking. Uniform motion Non-uniform motion Oscillatory motion Car moving with constant speed Bus moving on city road Pendulum of clock Rotation of earth Riding of cycle on crowded road A swing
