Measurement
Chapter 1
I.) Choose the best answer.
1.) Which of the following is a derived quantity?
a) mass
b) time
c) area
d) length
Answer: c) area
Solution: The physical quantities which can be obtained by multiplying, dividing or by mathematically combining the fundamental quantities are known as derived quantities. Eg. Area and volume
2.) Which of the following is correct?
a) 1L = 1cc
b) 1L = 10 cc
c) 1L = 100 cc

XI.) Questions based on Higher Order Thinking Skills:
i.) Find the ratio of masses of spheres A and B.
Answer: Mass of A : Mass of B
volume of A ×density of A : volume of B ×density of B
[density of A = density of B]
therefore, volume of A :Volume of B
4/3πrA3 :4/3πrB3. (rB=1/2rA)
rA3 : 1/8 rA
8 : 1
ii.) Find the ratio of volumes of spheres A and B.
Answer: volume of A : volume of B
4/3πrA3 :4/3πrB3. (rB=1/2rA)
rA3 : 1/8 rA
8 : 1
iii.) Find the ratio of masses of spheres A and C.
Answer: mass of A : mass of C
volume of A× density of A : volume of C × density of C
radius of A and C is same
therefore, volume of A = volume of C
density of A : density of C
2 density of C : density of C [density of A is equal to double of density of C]
therefore ratio is 2:1
XII.) Numerical problems:
1.) A circular disc has a radius 10 cm. Find the area of the disc in m2 (Use π = 3.14).
Answer: Radius of a disc = 10 cm
10cm= 0.1m
Area of disc = πr2 = 3.14×0.1×0.1 = 0.0314m2
2.) The dimension of a school playground is 800 m × 500 m. Find the area of the ground.
Answer: Length of ground = 800m
Breath of ground = 500m
Area of ground = length ×breadth = 800 ×500= 400000m2 = 4×10*5
3.) Two spheres of same size are made from copper and iron respectively. Find the ratio between their masses (Density of copper is 8,900 kg/m3 and iron is 7,800 kg/m3).
Answer: Volume of Copper Sphere = Volume of iron Sphere
Let, Vcu = VFe
Formula of mass = volume × density
M = V × d
Mass ratio is , Mcu = MFe
Vcu × 8,900 hg/m3 : VFe × 7,800 hg/m3
Vcu × 89 : VFe × 78
89 : 78
Ratio of mass of spheres of Copper and Iron is = 89 : 78.
4.) A liquid having a mass of 250 g fills a space of 1000 cc. Find the density of the liquid.
Answer: Mass of the liquid = 250 g
Volume of the liquid = 1000cc
= 250 g / 1000cc
= 0.25 g/cc
Density of the liquid = 0.25g cc-1
5.) A sphere of radius 1cm is made from silver. If the mass of the sphere is 33g, find the density of silver (Take π = 3.14).
Answer: Radius of the silver sphere = 1cm
Its mass = 33 g
Volume of the sphere = 4/3 πr3
= 4/3 × 3.14 × (1cm)3
= 4/3 × 3.14 × 13 cm3
Density of sphere (d) = Mass / Volume
= (33 / 3.14) × 3/4 × g.cm-3
Density of sphere = 7.88 g/cm3.
