Hi adante,

My son got the same asnwers as your dd except question 14 - for which his answer is (1). (the answer key we have showed answer as (3))

Besides these - there were also discrepancies in the following:

No3 - His answer (1) - answer key (2)
5. His answer (4 ) answer key (2) - which does not make sense at all.

Did your dd get these answers for 3 and 5.

:thankyou: vidhyalog. My dd also thinks that option (2) does not make sense.

Need help to explain for part (c) of this question :

Ans key : chemical potential engergy --> Kinetic energy + Sound energy
My dd's ans : Kinetic energy --> Heat sound + Sound energy

Hi

I think you need to begin with chemical energy.

Assuming the ball is given a push with the arm of a pupil.

The potential energy from the food consumed is transferred to the arm, as the arm moves it has kinetic energy. The arm then transfers the kinetic energy to the ball. As the ball rolls, part of the KE is converted to heat and sound energy.

Chemical Potential Energy ------ KE + either Heat or Sound.

Best wishes

I think it is 2, because when the plants convert the liquid into gas, it will help with evaporation so that the water cycle can continue
