Question 4

Compare the following:
(i) Size of a plant cell to the thickness of a piece of paper.
(ii) Size of a plant cell to the diameter of a wire on a computer chip.
(iii) The thickness of a piece of paper to the diameter of a wire on a computer chip.
Given size of plant cell = 0.00001275 m
Thickness of a piece of paper = 0.0016 cm
Diameter of a wire on a computer chip = 0.000003 m
Sol :
size of plant cell. $=0.00001275 \mathrm{~m}=1.275 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~m}$

thickness of piece of paper $=0.0016 \mathrm{~cm}=1.6 \times 10^{-5}$

Diameter of a wire on a computer chip

$=0.000003 \mathrm{~m}=3 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~m}$

(i) $\frac{\text { Size of plant cell }}{\text { thickness of piece of paper }}$

       = $\frac{1.275 \times 10^{-5}}{1.6 \times 10^{-5}}=0.796 \approx 0.8$

$\therefore$ Size of plant cell 0.8 times the Thickness of
piece of paper

(ii) $\frac{\text { size of plant cell }}{\text { Diameter of wire on computerchip }}$

$\frac{1.275 \times 10^{-5}}{3 \times 10^{-6}}$

$\underline{4.25}$

$\therefore$ size of plant cell is 4.25 times bigger than

the diameter of wire on Computer chip.

iii) $\frac{\text { thickness of piece of paper }}{\text { Diameter of wire on Computer chip }}$

=$\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-5}}{3 \times 10^{-6}}$

=5.33

$\therefore$ thickness of piece of paper is 5.33 times bigger then the diameter of wire on Computer chip

Question 5

The number of red blood cells per cubic millimetre of blood is approximately 5.5 million. If the average body contains 5 litres of blood, what is the total number of red cell in the body? (1 litre = 1,00,000 $mm^3$)
Sol :
Number of red blood cells per cubic millimeter $=5.5 \times 10^{6}\mathrm{mm}^{3}$


Total no. of red blood cells in 5 liters of blood is 

1 litre = 1,00,000 $mm^3$
∴$5 l =5 \times 100000~mm^3$
$5~l=500000~mm^3$

Given : $1mm^3$=5.5 million red blood cell
 $1mm^3=5.5 \times 1000000$
 $1mm^3=\frac{55}{10} \times 1000000$
 $1mm^3=5500000$ red blood cell

Multiplying 500000 both sides
∴$(500000 \times 1)~mm^3=500000 \times 5500000$ red blood cell
$500000~mm^3=2750000000000$ red blood cell

$5~l=500000~mm^3$
∴$5~l=275\times 10^{10}$ red blood cell
or 5~l=\frac{275}{100} \times 10^{10} \times 10^{2}$ red blood cell
$5~l=2.75 \times 10^{12}$ red blood cell

Question 6

Mass of Mars is $6.42 × 10^{29}$ kg and the mass of the sun is $1.99 × 10^{30}$ kg. What is the total mass?
Sol :
Mass of Mars $=6.42 \times 10^{29} \mathrm{~kg}$

Mass of sun $=1.99 \times 10^{30} \mathrm{~kg}$

Total Mass $=$ Mass of Mars $+$ Mass of Sun

$=6.42 \times 10^{29}+1.99 \times 10^{30}$

$=0.642 \times 10^{30}+1.99 \times 10^{30}$

$\therefore$ (:: make powers equal in both  terms)

$\therefore \quad$ Total mass $=2.632 \times 10^{30} \mathrm{~kg}$

Question 7

A particular star is at a distance of about $8.1 × 10^{13}$ km from the Earth. Assuming that the light travels at $3 × 10^8$ m/sec, find how long does light take from that star to reach the Earth.
Sol : 
 Distance between  star and earth = $8.1 \times 10^{13} \mathrm{~km}$

=$8.1 \times 10^{13} \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~m}$

=$81 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~m}$

$\begin{aligned} \text { Speed ot light } &=3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec} \\ \text { Time } &=\frac{\text { distance }}{\text { Speed }} \\ &=\frac{8.1 \times 10^{16}}{3 \times 108} \\ \text { Time } &=2.7 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{sec} \end{aligned}$
