2. Answer in brief.

i) Why are curved roads banked?
Answer:
A car while taking a turn performs circular motion. If the road is level (or horizontal road), the necessary centripetal force is the force of static friction between the car tyres and the road surface. The friction depends upon the nature of the surfaces in contact and the presence of oil and water on the road. If the friction is inadequate, a speeding car may skid off the road. Since the friction changes with circumstances, it cannot be relied upon to provide the necessary centripetal force. Moreover, friction results in fast wear and tear of the tyres.

To avoid the risk of skidding as well as to reduce the wear and tear of the car tyres, the road surface at a bend is tilted inward, i.e., the outer side of the road is raised above its inner side. This is called banking of road. On a banked road, the resultant of the normal reaction and the gravitational force can act as the necessary centripetal force. Thus, every car can be safely driven on such a banked curve at certain optimum speed, without depending on friction. Hence, a road should be properly banked at a bend.

The angle of banking is the angle of inclination of the surface of a banked road at a bend with the horizontal.

ii) Do we need a banked road for a two wheeler? Explain.
Answer:
When a two-wheeler takes a turn along an unbanked road, the force of friction provides the centripetal force. The two-wheeler leans inward to counteract a torque that tends to topple it outward. Firstly, friction cannot be relied upon to provide the necessary centripetal force on all road conditions. Secondly, the friction results in wear and tear of the tyres. On a banked road at a turn, any vehicle can negotiate the turn without depending on friction and without straining the tyres.

iii) On what factors does the frequency of a conical pendulum depend? Is it independent of some factors?
Answer:
The frequency of a conical pendulum, of string length L and semivertical angle θ, is
n = \(\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{g}{L \cos \theta}}\)
where g is the acceleration due to gravity at the place.
From the above expression, we can see that

  1. n ∝ \(\sqrt{g}\)
  2. n ∝ \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{L}}\)
  3. n ∝ \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{\cos \theta}}\)
    (if θ increases, cos θ decreases and n increases)
  4. The frequency is independent of the mass of the bob.

iv) Why is it useful to define radius of gyration?
Answer:
Definition : The radius of gyration of a body rotating about an axis is defined as the distance between the axis of rotation and the point at which the entire mass of the body can be supposed to be concentrated so as to give the same moment of inertia as that of the body about the given axis.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 65
The moment of inertia (MI) of a body about a given rotation axis depends upon

  1. the mass of the body and
  2. the distribution of mass about the axis of rotation. These two factors can be separated by expressing the MI as the product of the mass (M) and the square of a particular distance (k) from the axis of rotation. This distance is called the radius of gyration and is defined as given above. Thus,
    Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 66

Physical significance : The radius of gyration is less if I is less, i.e., if the mass is distributed close to the axis; and it is more if I is more, i.e., if the mass is distributed away from the axis. Thus, it gives the idea about the distribution of mass about the axis of rotation.

v) A uniform disc and a hollow right circular cone have the same formula for their M.I., when rotating about their central axes. Why is it so?
Answer:
The radius of gyration of a thin ring of radius Rr about its transverse symmetry axis is
Kr = \(\sqrt{I_{\mathrm{CM}} / M_{\mathrm{r}}}\) = \(\sqrt{R_{\mathrm{r}}^{2}}\) = Rr
The radius of gyration of a thin disc of radius Rd about its transverse symmetry axis is
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 70

Question 3.
While driving along an unbanked circular road, a two-wheeler rider has to lean with the vertical. Why is it so? With what angle the rider has to lean? Derive the relevant expression. Why such a leaning is not necessary for a four wheeler?
Answer:
When a bicyclist takes a turn along an unbanked road, the force of friction \(\vec{f}_{\mathrm{s}}\) provides the centripetal force; the normal reaction of the road \(\vec{N}\) is vertically up. If the bicyclist does not lean inward, there will be an unbalanced outward torque about the centre of gravity, fs.h, due to the friction force that will topple the bicyclist outward. The bicyclist must lean inward to counteract this torque (and not to generate a centripetal force) such that the opposite inward torque of the couple formed by \(\vec{N}\) and the weight \(\vec{g}\), mg.a = fs.h1
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 1

Since the force of friction provides the centripetal force,
fs = \(\frac{m v^{2}}{r}\)
If the cyclist leans from the vertical by an angle 9, the angle between \(\vec{N}\) and \(\vec{F}\) in above figure.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 2
Hence, the cyclist must lean by an angle
θ = tan-1\(\left(\frac{v^{2}}{g r}\right)\)

When a car takes a turn along a level road, apart from the risk of skidding off outward, it also has a tendency to roll outward due to an outward torque about the centre of gravity due to the friction force. But a car is an extended object with four wheels. So, when the inner wheels just get lifted above the ground, it can be counterbalanced by a restoring torque of the couple formed by the normal reaction (on the outer wheels) and the weight.

Question 4.
Using the energy conservation, derive the expressions for the minimum speeds at different locations along a vertical circular motion controlled by gravity. Is zero speed possible at the uppermost point? Under what condition/s? Also prove that the difference between the extreme tensions (or normal forces) depends only upon the weight of the object.
Answer:
In a non uniform vertical circular motion, e.g., those of a small body attached to a string or the loop-the-loop manoeuvers of an aircraft or motorcycle or skateboard, the body must have some minimum speed to reach the top and complete the circle. In this case, the motion is controlled only by gravity and zero speed at the top is not possible.

However, in a controlled vertical circular motion, e.g., those of a small body attached to a rod or the giant wheel (Ferris wheel) ride, the body or the passenger seat can have zero speed at the top, i.e., the motion can be brought to a stop.

Question 5.
Discuss the necessity of radius of gyration. Define it. On what factors does it depend and it does not depend? Can you locate some similarity between the centre of mass and radius of gyration? What can you infer if a uniform ring and a uniform disc have the same radius of gyration?
Answer:
Definition : The radius of gyration of a body rotating about an axis is defined as the distance between the axis of rotation and the point at which the entire mass of the body can be supposed to be concentrated so as to give the same moment of inertia as that of the body about the given axis.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 10
The moment of inertia (MI) of a body about a given rotation axis depends upon

  1. the mass of the body and
  2. the distribution of mass about the axis of rotation. These two factors can be separated by expressing the MI as the product of the mass (M) and the square of a particular distance (k) from the axis of rotation. This distance is called the radius of gyration and is defined as given above. Thus,

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 11

Physical significance : The radius of gyration is less if I is less, i.e., if the mass is distributed close to the axis; and it is more if I is more, i.e., if the mass is distributed away from the axis. Thus, it gives the idea about the distribution of mass about the axis of rotation.

The centre of mass (CM) coordinates locates a point where if the entire mass M of a system of particles or that of a rigid body can be thought to be concentrated such that the acceleration of this point mass obeys Newton’s second law of motion, viz.,
\(\vec{F}_{\mathrm{net}}\) = M\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}_{\mathrm{CM}}\), where \(\vec{F}_{\mathrm{net}}\) is the sum of all the external forces acting on the body or on the individual particles of the system of particles.

Similarly, radius of gyration locates a point from the axis of rotation where the entire mass M can be thought to be concentrated such that the angular acceleration of that point mass about the axis of rotation obeys the relation, \(\vec{\tau}_{\mathrm{net}}\) = M\(\vec{\alpha}\), where \(\vec{\tau}_{\text {net }}\) is the sum of all the external torques acting on the body or on the individual particles of the system of particles.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics

Question 6.
State the conditions under which the theorems of parallel axes and perpendicular axes are applicable. State the respective mathematical expressions.
Answer:
The theorem of parallel axis is applicable to any body of arbitrary shape. The moment of inertia (MI) of the body about an axis through the centre mass should be known, say, ICM. Then, the theorem can be used to find the MI, I, of the body about an axis parallel to the above axis. If the distance between the two axes is h,
I = ICM + Mh2 …(1)
The theorem of perpendicular axes is applicable to a plane lamina only. The moment of inertia Iz of a plane lamina about an axis-the z axis- perpendicular to its plane is equal to the sum of its moments of inertia Ix and Iy about two mutually perpendicular axes x and y in its plane and through the point of intersection of the perpendicular axis and the lamina.
Iz = Ix + Iy …. (2)

Question 7.
Derive an expression that relates angular momentum with the angular velocity of a rigid body.
Answer:
Consider a rigid body rotating with a constant angular velocity \(\vec{\omega}\) about an axis through the point O and perpendicular to the plane of the figure. All the particles of the body perform uniform circular motion about the axis of rotation with the same angular velocity \(\vec{\omega}\). Suppose that the body consists of N particles of masses m1, m2, …, mn, situated at perpendicular distances r1, r2, …, rN, respectively from the axis of rotation.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 15
The particle of mass m1 revolves along a circle of radius r1, with a linear velocity of magnitude v1 = r1ω. The magnitude of the linear momentum of the particle is
p1 = m1v1 = m1r1ω
The angular momentum of the particle about the axis of rotation is by definition,
\(\vec{L}_{1}\) = \(\vec{r}_{1}\) × \(\vec{p}_{1}\)
∴ L1 = r1p1 sin θ
where θ is the smaller of the two angles between \(\vec{r}_{1}\) and \(\vec{p}_{1} \text { . }\)
In this case, θ = 90° ∴ sin θ = 1
∴ L1 = r1p1 = r1m1r1ω = m1r12ω
Similarly L2 = m2r22ω, L3 = m3r32ω, etc.
The angular momentum of the body about the given axis is
L = L1 + L2 + … + LN
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 20
where I = \(\sum_{i=1}^{N} m_{i} r_{i}^{2}\) = moment of inertia of the body about the given axis.
In vector form, \(\vec{L}\) = \(I \vec{\omega}\)
Thus, angular momentum = moment of inertia × angular velocity.
[Note : Angular momentum is a vector quantity. It has the same direction as \(\vec{\omega}\).]

Question 8.
Obtain an expression relating the torque with angular acceleration for a rigid body.
Answer:
A torque acting on a body produces angular acceleration. Consider a rigid body rotating about an axis passing through the point O and perpendicular to the plane of the figure. Suppose that a torque \(\vec{\tau}\) on
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 25
the body produces uniform angular acceleration \(\vec{\alpha}\) along the axis of rotation.
The body can be considered as made up of N particles with masses m1, m2, …, mN situated at perpendicular distances r1, r2, …, rN respectively from the axis of rotation, \(\vec{\alpha}\) is the same for all the particles as the body is rigid. Let \(\vec{F}_{1}\), \(\vec{F}_{2}\), …, \(\vec{F}_{N}\) be the external forces on the particles.
The torque \(\vec{\tau}_{1}\), on the particle of mass m1, is
\(\vec{\tau}_{1}\) = \(\vec{r}_{1}\) × \(\vec{F}_{1}\)
∴ τ1 = r1F1 sin θ
where θ is the smaller of the two angles between \(\vec{r}_{1}\) and \(\vec{F}_{1} .\)
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 26
where
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 27
is the moment of inertia of the body about the axis of rotation.
In vector form, \(\vec{\tau}\) = I\(\vec{\alpha}\)
This gives the required relation.
Angular acceleration \(\vec{\alpha}\) has the same direction as the torque \(\vec{\tau}\) and both of them are axial vectors along the rotation axis.

Question 9.
State and explain the principle of conservation of angular momentum. Use a suitable illustration. Do we use it in our daily life? When?
Answer:
Law (or principle) of conservation of angular momentum : The angular momentum of a body is conserved if the resultant external torque on the body is zero.
Explanation : This law (or principle) is used by a figure skater or a ballerina to increase their speed of rotation for a spin by reducing the body’s moment of inertia. A diver too uses it during a somersault for the same reason.

(1) Ice dance :
Twizzle and spin are elements of the sport of figure skating. In a twizzle a skater turns several revolutions while travelling on the ice. In a dance spin, the skater rotates on the ice skate and centred on a single point on the ice. The torque due to friction between the ice skate and the ice is small. Consequently, the angular momentum of a figure skater remains nearly constant.

For a twizzle of smaller radius, a figure skater draws her limbs close to her body to reduce moment of inertia and increase frequency of rotation. For larger rounds, she stretches out her limbs to increase moment of inertia which reduces the angular and linear speeds.

A figure skater usually starts a dance spin in a crouch, rotating on one skate with the other leg and both arms extended. She rotates relatively slowly because her moment of inertia is large. She then slowly stands up, pulling the extended leg and arms to her body. As she does so, her moment of inertia about the axis of rotation decreases considerably,and thereby her angular velocity substantially increases to conserve angular momentum.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 35

(2) Diving :
Take-off from a springboard or diving platform determines the diver’s trajectory and the magnitude of angular momentum. A diver must generate angular momentum at take-off by moving the position of the arms and by a slight hollowing of the back. This allows the diver to change angular speeds for twists and somersaults in flight by controlling her/his moment of inertia. A compact tucked shape of the body lowers the moment of inertia for rotation of smaller radius and increased angular speed. The opening of the body for the vertical entry into water does not stop the rotation, but merely slows it down. The angular momentum remains constant throughout the flight.

Question 10.
Discuss the interlink between translational, rotational and total kinetic energies of a rigid object that rolls without slipping.
Answer:
Consider a symmetric rigid body, like a sphere or a wheel or a disc, rolling on a plane surface with friction along a straight path. Its centre of mass (CM) moves in a straight line and, if the frictional force on the body is large enough, the body rolls without slipping. Thus, the rolling motion of the body can be treated as translation of the CM and rotation about an axis through the CM. Hence, the kinetic energy of a rolling body is
E = Etran + Erot ……. (1)

where Etran and Erot are the kinetic energies associated with translation of the CM and rotation about an axis through the CM, respectively.

Let M and R be the mass and radius of the body. Let ω, k and i be the angular speed, radius of gyration and moment of inertia for rotation about an axis through its centre, and v be the translational speed of the centre of mass.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 36

Question 11.
A rigid object is rolling down an inclined plane. Derive expressions for the acceleration along the track and the speed after falling through a certain vertical distance.
Answer:
Consider a circularly symmetric rigid body, like a sphere or a wheel or a disc, rolling with friction down a plane inclined at an angle 9 to the horizontal. If the frictional force on the body is large enough, the body rolls without slipping.
Let M and R be the mass and radius of the body. Let I be the moment of inertia of the body for rotation about an axis through its centre. Let the body start from rest at the top of the incline at a
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 37
height h. Let v be the translational speed of the centre of mass at the bottom of the incline. Then, its kinetic energy at the bottom of the incline is
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 38
Let a be the acceleration of the centre of mass of the body along the inclined plane. Since the body starts from rest,
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 39
Starting from rest, if t is the time taken to travel the distance L,
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 40
[Note : For rolling without slipping, the contact point of the rigid body is instantaneously at rest relative to the surface of the inclined plane. Hence, the force of friction is static rather than kinetic, and does no work on the body. Thus, the force of static friction causes no decrease in the mechanical energy of the body and we can use the principle of conservation of energy.]

Question 12.
Somehow, an ant is stuck to the rim of a bicycle wheel of diameter 1 m. While the bicycle is on a central stand, the wheel
is set into rotation and it attains the frequency of 2 rev/s in 10 seconds, with uniform angular acceleration. Calculate
(i) Number of revolutions completed by the ant in these 10 seconds.
(ii) Time taken by it for first complete revolution and the last complete revolution.
[Ans:10 rev., tfirst = \(\sqrt{10}\)s, tlast = 0.5132s]
Answer:
Data : r = 0.5 m, ω0 = 0, ω = 2 rps, t = 10 s

(i) Angular acceleration (α) being constant, the average angular speed,
ωav = \(\frac{\omega_{\mathrm{o}}+\omega}{2}\) = \(\frac{0+2}{2}\) = 1 rps
∴ The angular displacement of the wheel in time t,
θ = ωav ∙ t = 1 × 10 = 10 revolutions

(ii)
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 41
The time for the last, i.e., the 10th, revolution is t1 – t2 = 10 – 9.486 = 0.514 s

Question 13.
Coefficient of static friction between a coin and a gramophone disc is 0.5. Radius of the disc is 8 cm. Initially the
centre of the coin is 2 cm away from the centre of the disc. At what minimum frequency will it start slipping from there? By what factor will the answer change if the coin is almost at the rim?
(use g = π2 m/s2)
[Ans: 2.5 rev/s, n2 = \(\frac{1}{2}\)n1]
Answer:
Data : µs = 0.5, r1 = π cm = π × 10-2 m, r2 = 8 cm = 8 × 10-2 m, g = π2 m/s2
To revolve with the disc without slipping, the necessary centripetal force must be less than or equal to the limiting force of static friction.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 43
The coin will start slipping when the frequency is
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 44
The minimum frequency in the second case will be \(\sqrt{\frac{\pi}{8}}\) times that in the first case.
[ Note The answers given in the textbook are for r1 = 2 cm.]

Question 14.
Part of a racing track is to be designed for a radius of curvature of 72 m. We are not recommending the vehicles to drive faster than 216 kmph. With what angle should the road be tilted? At what height will its outer edge be, with respect to the inner edge if the track is 10 m wide?
[Ans: θ = tan-1 (5) = 78.69°, h = 9.8 m]
Answer:
Data : r = 72 m, v0 = 216 km/h, = 216 × \(\frac{5}{18}\)
= 60 m/s, w = 10 m, g = 10 m/s2
tan θ = \(\frac{v_{\mathrm{o}}^{2}}{r g}\) = \(\frac{(60)^{2}}{72 \times 10}\) = \(\frac{3600}{720}\) = 5
∴ θ = tan-1 5 = 78°4′
This is the required angle of banking.
sin θ = \(\frac{h}{w}\)
∴ h = w sin θ = (10) sin 78°4′ = 10 × 0.9805
= 9.805 m
This gives the height of the outer edge of the track relative to the inner edge.

Question 15.
The road in the example 14 above is constructed as per the requirements. The coefficient of static friction between the tyres of a vehicle on this road is 0.8, will there be any lower speed limit? By how much can the upper speed limit exceed in this case?
[Ans: vmin ≅ 88 kmph, no upper limit as the road is banked for θ > 45°]
Answer:
Data : r = 72 m, θ = 78 °4′, µs = 0.8, g = 10 m/s2 tan θ = tan 78°4′ = 5
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 45
= 24.588 m/s = 88.52 km/h
This will be the lower limit or minimum speed on this track.
Since the track is heavily banked, θ > 45 °, there is no upper limit or maximum speed on this track.

Question 16.
During a stunt, a cyclist (considered to be a particle) is undertaking horizontal circles inside a cylindrical well of radius 6.05 m. If the necessary friction coefficient is 0.5, how much minimum speed should the stunt artist maintain? Mass of the artist is 50 kg. If she/he increases the speed by 20%, how much will the force of friction be?
[Ans: vmin = 11 m/s, fs = mg = 500 N]
Answer:
Data : r = 6.05 m, µs = 0.5, g = 10 m/s2, m = 50 kg, ∆v = 20%
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 72
This is the required minimum speed. So long as the cyclist is not sliding, at every instant, the force of static friction is fs = mg = (50)(10) = 500 N

Question 17.
A pendulum consisting of a massless string of length 20 cm and a tiny bob of mass 100 g is set up as a conical pendulum. Its bob now performs 75 rpm. Calculate kinetic energy and increase in the gravitational potential energy of the bob. (Use π 2 = 10 )
[Ans: cos θ = 0.8, K.E. = 0.45 J, ∆(P E.) = 0.04 J]
Answer:
Data : L = 0.2 m, m = 0.1 kg, n = \(\frac{75}{60}\) = \(\frac{5}{4}\) rps,
g = 10 m/s2, π2 = 10,
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 50
The increase in gravitational PE,
∆PE = mg(L – h)
= (0.1) (10) (0.2 – 0.16)
= 0.04 J

Question 18.
A motorcyclist (as a particle) is undergoing vertical circles inside a sphere of death. The speed of the motorcycle varies between 6 m/s and 10 m/s. Calculate diameter of the sphere of death. What are the minimum values are possible for these two speeds?
[Ans: Diameter = 3.2 m, (v1)min = 4 m/s, (v2)min = 4 \(\sqrt{5}\)/m s ]
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 51
= 1.6 m
The diameter of the sphere of death = 3.2 m.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 52
The required minimum values of the speeds are 4 m/s and 4\(\sqrt{5}\) m/s.

Question 19.
A metallic ring of mass 1 kg has moment of inertia 1 kg m2 when rotating about one of its diameters. It is molten and remoulded into a thin uniform disc of the same radius. How much will its moment of inertia be, when rotated about its own axis.
[Ans: 1 kg m2]
Answer:
The MI of the thin ring about its diameter,
Iring = \(\frac{1}{2}\)MR2 = 1 kg.m2
Since the ring is melted and recast into a thin disc of same radius R, the mass of the disc equals the mass of the ring = M.
The MI of the thin disc about its own axis (i.e., transverse symmetry axis) is
Idisc = \(\frac{1}{2}\)MR2 = Iring
∴ Idisc = 1 kg.m2

Question 20.
A big dumb-bell is prepared by using a uniform rod of mass 60 g and length 20 cm. Two identical solid thermocol spheres of mass 25 g and radius 10 cm each are at the two ends of the rod. Calculate moment of inertia of the dumbbell when rotated about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the length.
[Ans: 24000 g cm-2]
Answer:
Data : Msph = 50 g, Rsph = 10 cm, Mrod = 60 g, Lrod = 20 cm
The MI of a solid sphere about its diameter is
Isph,CM = \(\frac{2}{5}\)MsphRsph
The distance of the rotation axis (transverse symmetry axis of the dumbbell) from the centre of sphere, h = 30 cm.
The MI of a solid sphere about the rotation axis, Isph = Isph, CM + Msphh2
For the rod, the rotation axis is its transverse symmetry axis through CM.
The MI of a rod about this axis,
Irod = \(\frac{1}{12}\) MrodL2rod
Since there are two solid spheres, the MI of the dumbbell about the rotation axis is

Question 21.
A flywheel used to prepare earthenware pots is set into rotation at 100 rpm. It is in the form of a disc of mass 10 kg and
radius 0.4 m. A lump of clay (to be taken equivalent to a particle) of mass 1.6 kg falls on it and adheres to it at a certain
distance x from the centre. Calculate x if the wheel now rotates at 80 rpm.
[Ans: x = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{8}}\)m = 0.35 m]
Answer:
Data : f1 = 60 rpm = 60/60 rot/s = 1 rot/s,

This gives the MI of the flywheel about the given axis.

(ii) Angular momentum, L = Iω = I(2πf) = 2πIf
The change in angular momentum, ∆L
= L2 – L1 = 2πI(f2 – f1)

Question 22.
Starting from rest, an object rolls down along an incline that rises by 3 units in every 5 units (along it). The object gains a speed of \(\sqrt{10}\) m/s as it travels a distance of \(\frac{5}{3}\)m along the incline. What can be the possible shape/s of the object?
[Ans: \(\frac{K^{2}}{R^{2}}\) = 1. Thus, a ring or a hollow cylinder]
Answer:
Data : sin θ = \(\frac{3}{5}\), u = 0, v = \(\sqrt{10}\) m/s, L = \(\frac{5}{3}\)m, g = 10 m/s2

Question 1.
Obtain the condition for not toppling (rollover) for a four-wheeler. On what factors does it depend and how?
Answer:
Consider a car of mass m taking a turn of radius r along a level road. As seen from an inertial frame of reference, the forces acting on the car are :

  1. the lateral limiting force of static friction \(\overrightarrow{f_{\mathrm{s}}}\) on the wheels-acting along the axis of the wheels and towards the centre of the circular path- which provides the necessary centripetal force,
  2. the weight \(m \vec{g}\) acting vertically downwards at the centre of gravity (C.G.)
  3. the normal reaction \(\vec{N}\) of the road on the wheels, acting vertically upwards effectively at the C.G. Since maximum centripetal force = limiting force of static friction,
    mar = \(\frac{m v^{2}}{r}\) = fs…. (1)

In a simplified rigid-body vehicle model, we consider only two parameters-the height h of the C.G. above the ground and the average distance b between the left and right wheels called the track width.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 201
The friction force \(\overrightarrow{f_{s}}\) on the wheels produces a torque \(\tau_{\mathrm{t}}\) that tends to overturn/rollover the car about the outer wheel. Rotation about the front-to-back axis is called roll.
\(\tau_{\mathrm{t}}\) = fs.h = \(\left(\frac{m v^{2}}{r}\right)\)h … (2)

When the inner wheel just gets lifted above the ground, the normal reaction \(\vec{N}\) of the road acts on the outer wheels but the weight continues to act at the C.G. Then, the couple formed by the normal reaction and the weight produces a opposite torque \(\tau_{\mathrm{r}}\) which tends to restore the car back on all four wheels
\(\tau_{\mathrm{r}}\) = mg.\(\frac{b}{2}\) …. (3)
The car does not topple as long as the restoring torque \(\tau_{\mathrm{r}}\) counterbalances the toppling torque \(\tau_{\mathrm{t}}\). Thus, to avoid the risk of rollover, the maximum speed that the car can have is given by
\(\left(\frac{m v^{2}}{r}\right)\)h = mg.\(\frac{b}{2}\) ∴ vmax = \(\sqrt{\frac{r b g}{2 h}}\) … (4)

Thus, vehicle tends to roll when the radial acceleration reaches a point where inner wheels of the four-wheeler are lifted off of the ground and the vehicle is rotated outward. A rollover occurs when the gravitational force \(m \vec{g}\) passes through the pivot point of the outer wheels, i.e., the C.G. is above the line of contact of the outer wheels. Equation (3) shows that this maximum speed is high for a car with larger track width and lower centre of gravity.

There will be rollover (before skidding) if \(\tau_{t}\) ≥ \(\tau_{\mathrm{r}}\), that is if
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 202
The vehicle parameter ratio, \(\frac{b}{2 h}\), is called the static stability factor (SSF). Thus, the risk of a rollover is low if SSF ≤ µs. A vehicle will most likely skid out rather than roll if µs is too low, as on a wet or icy road.

Question 2.
Think about the normal reactions. Where are those and how much are those?
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 203
In a simplified vehicle model, we assume the normal reactions to act equally on all the four wheels, i.e., mg/4 on each wheel. However, the C.G. is not at the geometric centre of a vehicle and the wheelbase (i.e., the distance L between its front and rear wheels) affects the weight distribution of the vehicle. When a vehicle is not accelerating, the normal reactions on each pair of front and rear wheels are, respectively,
Nf = \(\frac{d_{\mathrm{r}}}{L}\)mg and Nr = \(\frac{d_{\mathrm{f}}}{L}\) mg
where dr and df are the distances of the rear and front axles from the C.G. [When a vehicle accelerates, additional torque acts on the axles and the normal reactions on the wheels change. So, as is common experience, a car pitches back (i.e., rear sinks and front rises) when it accelerates, and a car pitches ahead (i.e., front noses down). Rotation about the lateral axis is called pitch.]

Question 3.
What is the recommendations on loading a vehicle for not toppling easily?
Answer:
Overloading (or improper load distribution) or any load placed on the roof raises a vehicle’s centre of gravity, and increases the vehicle’s likelihood of rolling over. A roof rack should be fitted by considering weight limits.

Road accidents involving rollovers show that vehicles with higher h (such as SUVs, pickup vans and trucks) topple more easily than cars. Untripped rollovers normally occur when a top-heavy vehicle attempts to perform a panic manoeuver that it physically cannot handle.

Question 4.
If a vehicle topples while turning, which wheels leave the contact with the road? Why?
Answer:
Inner wheels.
Consider a car of mass m taking a turn of radius r along a level road. As seen from an inertial frame of reference, the forces acting on the car are :

  1. the lateral limiting force of static friction \(\overrightarrow{f_{\mathrm{s}}}\) on the wheels-acting along the axis of the wheels and towards the centre of the circular path- which provides the necessary centripetal force,
  2. the weight \(m \vec{g}\) acting vertically downwards at the centre of gravity (C.G.)
  3. the normal reaction \(\vec{N}\) of the road on the wheels, acting vertically upwards effectively at the C.G. Since maximum centripetal force = limiting force of static friction,
    mar = \(\frac{m v^{2}}{r}\) = fs…. (1)

In a simplified rigid-body vehicle model, we consider only two parameters-the height h of the C.G. above the ground and the average distance b between the left and right wheels called the track width.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 201
The friction force \(\overrightarrow{f_{s}}\) on the wheels produces a torque \(\tau_{\mathrm{t}}\) that tends to overturn/rollover the car about the outer wheel. Rotation about the front-to-back axis is called roll.
\(\tau_{\mathrm{t}}\) = fs.h = \(\left(\frac{m v^{2}}{r}\right)\)h … (2)

When the inner wheel just gets lifted above the ground, the normal reaction \(\vec{N}\) of the road acts on the outer wheels but the weight continues to act at the C.G. Then, the couple formed by the normal reaction and the weight produces a opposite torque \(\tau_{\mathrm{r}}\) which tends to restore the car back on all four wheels
\(\tau_{\mathrm{r}}\) = mg.\(\frac{b}{2}\) …. (3)
The car does not topple as long as the restoring torque \(\tau_{\mathrm{r}}\) counterbalances the toppling torque \(\tau_{\mathrm{t}}\). Thus, to avoid the risk of rollover, the maximum speed that the car can have is given by
\(\left(\frac{m v^{2}}{r}\right)\)h = mg.\(\frac{b}{2}\) ∴ vmax = \(\sqrt{\frac{r b g}{2 h}}\) … (4)

Thus, vehicle tends to roll when the radial acceleration reaches a point where inner wheels of the four-wheeler are lifted off of the ground and the vehicle is rotated outward. A rollover occurs when the gravitational force \(m \vec{g}\) passes through the pivot point of the outer wheels, i.e., the C.G. is above the line of contact of the outer wheels. Equation (3) shows that this maximum speed is high for a car with larger track width and lower centre of gravity.

Question 5.
How does [tendency to] toppling affect the tyres?
Answer:
While turning, shear stress acts on the tyre-road contact area. Due to this, the treads and side wall of a tyre deform. Apart from less control, this contributes to increased and uneven wear of the shoulder of the tyres.

Each wheel is placed under a small inward angle (called camber) in the vertical plane. Under severe lateral acceleration, when the car rolls, the camber angle ensures the complete contact area is in contact with the road and the wheels are now in vertical position. This improves the cornering behavior of the car. Improperly inflated and worn tyres can be especially dangerous because they inhibit the ability to maintain vehicle control. Worn tires may cause the vehicle to slide
sideways on wet or slippery pavement, sliding the vehicle off the road and increasing its risk of rolling over.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics

Question 6.
What is the recommendation for this?
Answer:
Because of uneven wear of the tyre shoulders, tyres should be rotated every 10000 km-12000 km. To avoid skidding, rollover and tyre-wear, the force of friction should not be relied upon to provide the necessary centripetal force during cornering. Instead, the road surface at a bend should be banked, i.e., tilted inward.

A car while taking a turn performs circular motion. If the road is level (or horizontal road), the necessary centripetal force is the force of static friction between the car tyres and the road surface. The friction depends upon the nature of the surfaces in contact and the presence of oil and water on the road. If the friction is inadequate, a speeding car may skid off the road. Since the friction changes with circumstances, it cannot be relied upon to provide the necessary centripetal force. Moreover, friction results in fast wear and tear of the tyres.

To avoid the risk of skidding as well as to reduce the wear and tear of the car tyres, the road surface at a bend is tilted inward, i.e., the outer side of the road is raised above its inner side. This is called banking of road. On a banked road, the resultant of the normal reaction and the gravitational force can act as the necessary centripetal force. Thus, every car can be safely driven on such a banked curve at certain optimum speed, without depending on friction. Hence, a road should be properly banked at a bend.

The angle of banking is the angle of inclination of the surface of a banked road at a bend with the horizontal.

When a two-wheeler takes a turn along an unbanked road, the force of friction provides the centripetal force. The two-wheeler leans inward to counteract a torque that tends to topple it outward. Firstly, friction cannot be relied upon to provide the necessary centripetal force on all road conditions. Secondly, the friction results in wear and tear of the tyres. On a banked road at a turn, any vehicle can negotiate the turn without depending on friction and without straining the tyres.

Question 7.
Determine the angle to be made with the vertical by a two-wheeler while turning on a horizontal track?
Answer:

When a bicyclist takes a turn along an unbanked road, the force of friction \(\vec{f}_{\mathrm{s}}\) provides the centripetal force; the normal reaction of the road \(\vec{N}\) is vertically up. If the bicyclist does not lean inward, there will be an unbalanced outward torque about the centre of gravity, fs.h, due to the friction force that will topple the bicyclist outward. The bicyclist must lean inward to counteract this torque (and not to generate a centripetal force) such that the opposite inward torque of the couple formed by \(\vec{N}\) and the weight \(\vec{g}\), mg.a = fs.h1
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 1

Since the force of friction provides the centripetal force,
fs = \(\frac{m v^{2}}{r}\)
If the cyclist leans from the vertical by an angle 9, the angle between \(\vec{N}\) and \(\vec{F}\) in above figure.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Physics Solutions Chapter 1 Rotational Dynamics 2
Hence, the cyclist must lean by an angle
θ = tan-1\(\left(\frac{v^{2}}{g r}\right)\)

When a car takes a turn along a level road, apart from the risk of skidding off outward, it also has a tendency to roll outward due to an outward torque about the centre of gravity due to the friction force. But a car is an extended object with four wheels. So, when the inner wheels just get lifted above the ground, it can be counterbalanced by a restoring torque of the couple formed by the normal reaction (on the outer wheels) and the weight.

Question 8.
We have mentioned about ‘static friction’ between road and tyres. Why is it static friction? What about kinetic friction between road and tyres?
Answer:
When a car takes a turn on a level road, the point of contact of the wheel with the surface is instantaneously stationary if there is no slipping. Hence, the lateral force on the car is the limiting force of static friction between the tyres and road. Lateral forces allow the car to turn. As long as the wheels are rolling, there is lateral force of static friction and longitudinal force of rolling friction. Longtitudinal forces, which act in the direction of motion of the car body (or in the exact opposite direction), control the acceleration or deceleration of the car and therefore the speed of the car. These are the wheel force, rolling friction, braking force and air drag. If the car skids, the friction force is kinetic friction; more importantly, the direction of the friction force then changes abruptly from lateral to that opposite the velocity of skidding and not towards the centre of the curve, so that the car cannot continue in its curved path.

Question 9.
What do you do if your vehicle is trapped on a slippery or sandy road? What is the physics involved?
Answer:
Driving on a country road should be attempted only with a four-wheel drive. However, if you do get stuck in deep sand or mud, avoid unnecessary panic and temptation to drive your way out of the mud or sand because excessive spinning of your tyres will most likely just dig you into a deeper hole. Momentum is the key to getting unstuck from sand or mud. One method is the rocking method-rocking your car backwards and forwards to gain momentum. Your best option is usually to gain traction and momentum by wedging a car mat (or sticks, leaves, gravel or rocks) in front and under your drive wheels. Once you start moving, keep the momentum going until you are on more solid terrain.

Question 1.
As a civil engineer, you are to construct a curved road in a ghat. In order to calculate the banking angle 0, you need to decide the speed limit. How will you decide the values of speed and radius of curvature at the bend ?
Answer:
For Indian roads, Indian Road Congress (IRC), [IRC-73-1980, Table 2, p.4], specifies the design speed depending on the classification of roads (such as national and state highways, district roads and village roads) and terrain. It is the basic design parameter which determines further geometric design features. For the radius of curvature at a bend, IRC [ibid., Table 16, p.24] specifies the absolute minimum values based on the minimum design speed. However, on new roads, curves should be designed to have the largest practicable radius, generally more than the minimum values specified, to allow for ‘sight distance’ and ‘driver comfort’. To consider the motorist driving within the innermost travel lane, the radius used to design horizontal curves should be measured to the inside edge of the innermost travel lane, particularly for wide road-ways with sharp horizontal curvature.

A civil engineer refers to banking as superelevation e;e = tan θ. IRC fixes emax = 0.07 for a non-urban road and the coefficient of lateral static friction, µ = 0.15, the friction between the vehicle tyres and the road being incredibly variable. Ignoring the product eµ, from Eq. (6)
e + µ = \(\frac{v^{2}}{g r}\) (where both v and r are in SI units)
= \(\frac{V^{2}}{127 r}\)(where V is in km / h and r is in metre) …. (1)
The sequence of design usually goes like this :

  1. Knowing the design speed V and radius r, calculate the superelevation for 75% of design speed ignormg friction : e = \(\frac{(0.75 \mathrm{~V})^{2}}{127 r}\) = \(\frac{V^{2}}{225 r}\)
  2. If e < 0.07, consider this calculated value of e in subsequent calculations. If e > 0.07, then take e = emax = 0.07.
  3. Use Eq. (1) above to check the value of µ for emax = 0.07 at the full value of the design speed V : µ = \(\frac{V^{2}}{127 r}\) – 0.07
    If µ < 0.15, then e = 0.07 is safe. Otherwise, calculate the allowable speed Va as in step 4.
  4. \(\frac{V_{\mathrm{a}}^{2}}{127 r}\) = e + p = 0.07 + 0.15
    If Va > V, then the design speed V is adequate.
    If Va < V, then speed is limited to Va with appropriate warning sign.

Question 1.
If friction is zero, can a vehicle move on the road? Why are we not considering the friction in deriving the expression for the banking angle?
Answer:
Friction is necessary for any form of locomotion. Without friction, a vehicle cannot move. The banking angle for a road at a bend is calculated for optimum speed at which every vehicle can negotiate the bend without depending on friction to provide the necessary lateral centripetal force.

Question 2.
What about the kinetic friction between the road and the lyres?
Answer:
When a car takes a turn on a level road, the point of contact of the wheel with the surface is instantaneously stationary if there is no slipping. Hence, the lateral force on the car is the limiting force of static friction between the tyres and road. Lateral forces allow the car to turn. As long as the wheels are rolling, there is lateral force of static friction and longitudinal force of rolling friction. Longtitudinal forces, which act in the direction of motion of the car body (or in the exact opposite direction), control the acceleration or deceleration of the car and therefore the speed of the car. These are the wheel force, rolling friction, braking force and air drag. If the car skids, the friction force is kinetic friction; more importantly, the direction of the friction force then changes abruptly from lateral to that opposite the velocity of skidding and not towards the centre of the curve, so that the car cannot continue in its curved path.

Question 1.
What is expected to happen if one travels fast over a speed breaker? Why?
Answer:
The maximum speed with which a car can travel over a road surface, which is in the form of a convex arc of radius r, is \(\sqrt{r g}\) where g is the acceleration due to gravity. For a speed breaker, r is very small (of the order of 1 m). Hence, one must slow down considerably while going over a speed breaker. Otherwise, the car will lose contact with the road and land with a thud.

Question 2.
How does the normal force on a concave suspension bridge change when a vehicle is travelling on it with a constant speed ?
Answer:
At the lowest point, N-mg provides the centripetal force. Therefore, N-mg = \(\frac{m v^{2}}{r}\), so that N = m(g + \(\frac{v^{2}}{r}\)).
Therefore, N increases with increasing v.

Question 1.
Describe mechanism of absorption of water.
Answer:

  1. The absorption of water takes place by two modes, i.e. active absorption and passive absorption.
  2. Passive absorption is the chief method of absorption (98%).
  3. There is no expenditure of energy in passive absorption.
  4. Transpiration pull is a driving force and water moves depending upon concentration gradient. Water is pulled upwards.
  5. It occurs during daytime when there is active transpiration.
  6. Active absorption occurs usually during night time as due to closure of stomata transpiration stops.
  7. Water absorption is against D.ED. gradient, A.T.R energy is required which is available from respiration.
  8. Active absorption may be osmotic or non- osmotic type.
  9. For osmotic absorption root pressure has a role.

Question 2.
Discuss theories of water translocation.
Answer:

  1. Translocation of water is transport of water along with dissolved minerals from roots to aerial parts.
  2. The movement is against the gravity and described as ascent of sap.
  3. The translocation occurs through lumen of water conducting tissue xylem mainly vessels and tracheids.
  4. Different theories have been discussed for translocation mechanism like vital force theory (Root pressure), relay pump, physical force (capillary), etc.
  5. Cohesion tension theory or transpiration pull theory is most widely accepted theory.

Question 3.
What is transpiration? Describe mechanism of opening and closing of stomata.
Answer:

  1. The loss of water in the form of vapour is called transpiration.
  2. Stomatal transpiration is a main type of transpiration where minute pores are concerned with it.
  3. Stomata are bounded by two guard cells which in turn are surrounded by accessory cells.
  4. Opening and closing of stomata is controlled by turgidity of guard cells.
  5. When guard cells become turgid due to endosmosis their lateral thin and elastic wall bulges or stretch out.
  6. The inner thick and inelastic wall is pulled apart, thus the stoma opens during daytime.
  7. At night when guard cells become flaccid due to exosmosis the wall relaxes and stoma closes.
  8. Endosmosis and exosmosis takes place due to changes in osmotic potential of guard cells.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 6 Plant Water Relation

Question 4.
What is transpiration? Explain role of transpiration.
Answer:
Transpiration : The loss of water from plant body in the form of vapour is called transpiration.

Role of transpiration:

  1. Removal of excess of water
  2. Helps in passive absorption of water and minerals
  3. Helps in ascent of sap – transpiration pull
  4. Maintains turgor of cells
  5. Imparts cooling effect by reducing temperature 90% – 93% is stomatal transpiration and hence when stomata are open gaseous exchange takes place.

Question 5.
Explain root pressure theory and its limitations.
Answer:

  1. Root pressure theory is proposed by J. Pristley.
  2. For translocation of water, activity of living cells of root is responsible.
  3. Absorption of water by root hair is a constant and continuous process and due to this a hydrostatic pressure is developed in cortical cells.
  4. Owing to this hydrostatic pressure i.e. root pressure, water is forced into xylem and further conducted upwards.
  5. Root pressure is an osmotic phenomenon.

Limitation of this theory:

  1. Not applicable to tall plants above 20 metres.
  2. Even in absence of root pressure ascent of sap is noticed.
  3. In actively transpiring plants, root pressure is not developed.
  4. In taller gymnosperms, root pressure is zero.
  5. Xylem sap is under tension and shows negative hydrostatic pressure.

Question 6.
Explain capillarity theory of water translocation.
Answer:

  1. Capillarity theory of water translocation is proposed by Bohem.
  2. Capillarity is because of surface tension and cohesive forces and adhesive forces of water molecules.
  3. Xylem vessels and tracheids are tubular elements having their lumen.
  4. In these elements water column exists due to combined action of cohesive and adhesive forces of water and lignified wall.
  5. As a result of this capillarity water is raised upwards.

Question 7.
Why is transpiration called ‘a necessary evil’?
Answer:

  1. The loss of water in the form of water vapour is called transpiration.
  2. About 90 – 93% of transpiration occurs through stomata, small apertures located in the epidermis of leaves.
  3. For this process stomata must remain open and then only gaseous exchange by diffusion takes places.
  4. Gaseous exchange is necessary for respiration and photosynthesis. If stomata remain closed then it will affect productivity of plant.
  5. The process is necessary evil because water which is important for plant is lost in the process.
  6. At the same time it helps in absorption of water and its translocation. Hence it cannot be avoided.
    So Curtis has rightly called it as necessary evil.

Question 8.
Explain movement of water in the root.
Answer:

  1. Root hairs absorb water by imbibition then diffusion which is followed by osmosis.
  2. As water is taken inside the root hair cell it becomes turgid i.e. increase in turgor pressure (T.E)
  3. Root hair cell has less D.ED. but adjacent cortical cell has more D.PD.
  4. The inner cortical cell has more osmotic potential so it will suck water from root hair cell.
  5. Root hair cell becomes flaccid and ready to absorb soil water.
  6. Water is passed on similarly in inner cortical cells.
  7. Water moves rapidly through loose cortical cells up to endodermis and through passage cells in pericycle.
  8. From pericycle due to hydrostatic pressure developed it is forced into protoxylem.

Question 9.
(i) Osmosis

4. Long answer questions

Question 1.
Describe structure of root hair.
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 6 Plant Water Relation 1

  1. Water from soil is absorbed by plants with the help of root hairs.
  2. Root hairs are present in zone of absorption.
  3. Epidermal cells form unicellular extensions which are short lived (ephemeral) structures i.e. root hairs.
  4. Root hairs are nothing but cytoplasmic extensions of epiblema cell.
  5. Root hairs are long tube like structures of about 1 to 10 mm.
  6. They are colourless, unbranched and very delicate structures.
  7. A large central vacuole is surrounded by thin layer of cytoplasm, plasma membrane and outer cell wall.
  8. The cell wall of root hair is thin and double layered with outer layer of pectin and inner layer of cellulose which is freely permeable.

Question 2.
Write on journey of water from soil to xylem in roots.
Answer:

  1. Unicellular root hairs which are tubular extensions of epiblema cells absorb readily available capillary water from soil.
  2. The three physical processes imbibition, diffusion and osmosis are concerned with absorption of water.
  3. Water molecules get adsorbed on cell wall of root hair (imbibition).
  4. They enter the root hair cell by diffusion through cell wall which is freely permeable.
  5. By process of osmosis they enter through plasma membrane which is semipermeable.
  6. The root hair cell becomes turgid and hence its turgor pressure increases and D.ED. value decreases.
  7. The adjacent cell of cortex has more D.ED. value as its osmotic potential is more.
  8. The cortical cell thus takes water from epidermal cell which is turgid. This process goes on due to gradient of suction pressure developed from cell to cell till thin walled passage cells of endodermis.
  9. From endodermis it will enter pericycle and then due to hydrostatic pressure it is forced in protoxylem cell.
  10. The pathway of water is by apoplast and symplast.
  11. When water passes through cell wall and intercellular spaces of cortex it is apoplast pathway.
  12. When water passes across living cells through their plasmodesmatal connections it is symplast pathway.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 6 Plant Water Relation

Question 3.
Explain cohesion theory of translocation of water.
Answer:

  1. This is very widely accepted theory of ascent of sap proposed by Dixon and Joly.
  2. It is based on principles of adhesion and cohesion of water molecules and transpiration by plants.
  3. A strong force of attraction existing between water molecules is cohesion and the force of attraction between water molecules and lignified walls of xylem elements is adhesion.
  4. Ascent of sap occurs through lumen of xylem elements.
  5. Owing to cohesive and adhesive forces a continuous water column is maintained in xylem from root to aerial parts i.e. leaves.
  6. Transpiration occurs through stomata and transpiration pull is developed in leaf vessels.
  7. This tension or pull is transmitted downwards through vein to roots which triggers ascent of sap.
  8. In transpiration, water is lost in vapour form and this increases D.PD. of mesophyll cells that are near guard cells.
  9. Mesophyll cells absorb water from xylem in leaf and a gradient of D.PD. or suction pressure (S. E) is set.
  10. Owing to this gradient from guard cell to xylem in leaf, a transpiration pull or tension is created in xylem.
  11. Hence water column is pulled upward passively against gravity.

Question 4.
Write on mechanism of opening and closing of stomata.
Answer:

  1. Transpiration takes place through stomata. Turgidity of guard cells controls opening and closing of stomata
  2. Turgor pressure exerted on unevenly thickened wall of guard cell is responsible for the movement.
  3. The outer thin wall which is elastic is stretched out which pulls inner thick inelastic wall and thus stomata open.
  4. When guard cells are flaccid that results in closure of stomata.
  5. According to starch-sugar in ter conversion theory enzyme phosphorylase converts starch to sugar during daytime.
  6. Sugar being osmotically active, the O.E of guard cells is increased. The water is absorbed from subsidiary cells. Due to turgidity walls are stretched and stoma opens.
  7. During night-time sugar is converted to starch and hence guard cells loose water and become flaccid. Hence there is closure of stomata.
  8. According to proton transport theory, the movement is due to transport of H+ and K+ ions.
  9. Subsidiary cells are reservoirs of K+ ions. Starch is converted to malic acid which dissociate into malate and proton (H+) during day.
  10. Proton transported to subsidiary cells and K+ ions are taken from it. This forms potassium malate in guard cells.
  11. Potassium malate increases osmotic potential and endo osmosis occurs hence turgidity of guard cells. → stomata opens,
  12. The uptake of K+ and Cl ions is stopped by abscissic acid formed during night. This changes permeability. Guard cells become hypotonic and loose water as they become flaccid stomata close.

Question 5.
What is hydroponics? How is it useful in identifying the role of nutrients?
Answer:
(1) Growing plants in aqueous (soilless) medium is known as hydroponics. [Greek word hudor = water and ponos = work]

(2) It is technique of growing plants by supplying all necessary nutrients in the water supply given to plant.

(3) A nutrient medium is prepared by dissolving necessary salts of micronutrients and macronutricnts In desired quantity and roots of plants are suspended in this liquid with appropriate support.

(4) Hydroponics is of great use in studying the deficiency symptoms of different mineral nutrients.

(5) The plants uptake mineral nutrients in the form of dissolved ions with the help of root hairs from the surrounding medium or nutrient solution supplied.

(6) While preparing the required nutricnt medium particular nutrient can be totally avoided and then the effect of lack of that nutrient can be studied in variation of plant growth.

(7) Any visible change noticed from normal structure and function of the plant is the symptom or hunger sign considered.

(8) For e.g. Yellowing of leaf is observed due to loss of chlorophyll pigments or Chiorosis is noticed if Magnesium is lacking as it is a structural componen of chlorophyll pigment.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 6 Plant Water Relation

Question 6.
Explain the active absorption of minerals.
Answer:

  1. Plants absorb minerals from the soil with their root system.
  2. MInerals are absorbed from the soil In the form of charged particles, positively charged cations and negatively charged anions.
  3. The absorption of minerals against the concentration gradient which requires expenditure of metabolic energy is called active absorption.
  4. The ATP energy derived from resp’ration in root cells Is utilized for active absrption.
  5. Ions get accumulated in the root hair against the concentration gradient.
  6. These ions pass into cortical cells and finally reach xylem of roots.
  7. Along with the water these minerals are carried to other parts of plant.

Short Answer Questions

Question 1.
Genetic drift.
Answer:

  1. Genetic drift is random, directionless fluctuation that takes place in allele frequency.
  2. It occurs by pure chance, in small sized population.
  3. Genetic drift becomes an evolutional factor as it can change the gene frequency.
  4. Sewall wright has given this concept and hence it is also known as Sewall wright effect.
  5. Due to genetic drift, some alleles of a population are lost or reduced by chance and some others may be increased.
  6. Some time, a few individuals become isolated from the large population and they produce new population in new geographical area.
  7. Genetic drift is also called founders’ effect because original drifted population becomes ‘founders’ in the new area.
    E.g. Non-adaptive character of huge horns in Antelope is fixed due to genetic drift.

Question 2.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 5 Origin and Evolution of Life

Question 5.
Write the objections to Mutation theory of Hugo de Vries.
Answer:
Objections to Mutation Theory:

  1. Hugo de Vries observed the large and discontinuous variation. But these were chromosomal aberrations. Only gene mutations usually bring about minor changes.
  2. Rate by which mutations take place is very slow as compared to the requirement of evolution.
  3. Chromosomal aberrations are very unstable.
  4. The organisms with chromosomal aberration are usually sterile and thus chromosomal aberrations have little significance in evolution.

Question 6.
What is disruptive selection? Give example.
Answer:
Disruptive selection:

  1. The natural selection that disrupts the mean characters of the population, is called disruptive selection.
  2. Greater number of individuals acquire peripheral character value at both ends of the distribution curve. E.g. Finches with large size or small size, both will be selected.
  3. Extreme phenotypes are selected in evolutionary process and intermediate forms are eliminated.
  4. When distribution curve is plotted it shows two peaks for two extremes.
  5. Disruptive selection is rare because, nature always tries to balance the characters.
  6. It ensures the effect on the entire gene pool of a population, considering all mating types or systems.

Example of disruptive selection:
African seed cracker finches are types of seed-feeder birds which have different sizes of beak. The seeds available to them were of small and large sized. Large beak sized birds feeds on large seeds while small beak sized birds feed on small seeds.

Such large and small birds thus thrive well. However, intermediate beak sized birds are unable to feed on either type of seeds so they starve and their population was decreased gradually. Natural selection eliminated them and thus the population of finches appear disrupted.

5. Long Answer Questions

Question 1.
Would you consider wings of butterfly and bat as homologous or analogous and why?
Answer:
Wings of butterfly are made up of chitin. They neither have bones, nor muscles in the wings. The bat’s wings are actually patagium. They have muscles and bones just as those seen in all vertebrate limb series. Therefore, these two examples cannot be homologous. However, both the animals use the wings for flight. This is an indication that their function is similar but structure is different, hence they are analogous organs.

Question 2.
What is adaptive radiation? Explain with suitable example.
Answer:

  1. Adaptive radiation is the process of evolution which results in transformation of original species to many different varieties.
  2. The well-known example of adaptive radiation is Darwin’s Finches. When Charles Darwin went on his voyage to Galapagos islands, he noticed finches which is a variety of small birds.
  3. According to Darwin’s observations, the American main land species of finches was the original one which must have migrated to the different islands of Galapagos.
  4. Since environmental conditions here were different, they adapted in various ways to the differing environmental conditions of these islands.
  5. Original bird had a beak suited for eating seeds, but the changed feeding pattern has changed the shape of beaks too. Some birds also show altered beaks for insectivorous mode. Thus, this demonstrated adaptive radiation.
  6. Adaptive radiation in Australian Marsupials is also well studied. In Australia, there are many marsupial mammals who evolved from common ancestor.
  7. Adaptive radiation leads to divergent evolution.

Question 3.
By talking industrial melanism as one example, explain the concept of natural selection.
OR
Explain natural selection in action by quoting the example of industrial melanism.
Answer:
1. Industrial melanism is the best example of natural selection which was studied by Kettlewell. In U.K. there are two varieties of peppered moths, Biston betularia and Biston carbonaria.

2. Before industrialisation, in Great Britain, Biston betularia were more in number than Biston carbonaria. B. Betularia is greyish white while B.carbonaria is melanic form.

3. These nocturnal moths rest on tree trunk during day. White-winged moth can camouflage well with the lichen covered whitish barks of trees. They thus escaped the attention of the predatory birds. But at the same time melanic forms were visible due to white barks of the trees. Their number was thus reduced as they were preyed upon by birds.

4. Later there was an industrial revolution, which ultimately resulted in air pollution causing dark soot to settle on the barks of the trees. Lichens too were destroyed and the melanic forms were now at advantage. Melanic forms could camouflage with black tree trunks and their number increased. White-winged moth become clearly seen in changed colours of the trees and thus they were easily caught by predatory birds. This caused decrease in their number.

5. Natural selection thus acted in changed environmental conditions and helped in the establishment of a phenotypic traits. The changed traits were more adaptive and hence were selected. Natural selection encourages those genes or traits that assure highest degree of adaptive efficiency between population and its environment.

Question 4.
Describe the Urey and Miller’s experiment.
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 5 Origin and Evolution of Life 2
1. Urey and Miller performed an experiment to prove Oparin’s theory of chemical evolution.

2. They selected a spark discharge apparatus that consisted of closed system of glass having tungsten electrodes, flask for water boiling, a side tube connected to a vacuum pump, a cooling jacket and U-shaped trap.

3. The entire apparatus was first evacuated and made sterile and pre-biotic atmosphere was created in it.

4. The flask was filled with some water and mixture of methane, ammonia and hydrogen in the ratio of 1 : 2 : 2 were slowly passed through the stopcock, without allowing air.

5. Heat was supplied to the flask at very low temperature causing water to boil. The flask simulated the ocean present on primitive earth. Process of evaporation and precipitation was simulated by using heating mantle and condenser respectively.

6. Water vapours along with other gases were circulated continuously through continuous electric sparks. These sparks were given to the mixture for several days causing the gases to interact. This too simulated lightning.

7. Mixture of CH4, NH3 and H2 gases passed through a condenser and was condensed to liquid.

8. The liquefied mixture was collected in the U-shaped trap, present at the bottom of the apparatus. It was found that variety of simple organic compounds (urea, amino acids, lactic acid and sugars) were formed in the apparatus.

This experiment provides the evidence in support to the fact that simple molecules present in the earth’s early atmosphere combined to form the organic building blocks of life.

Question 5.
What is Isolation? Describe the different types of reproductive isolations.
Answer:
1. Isolation means separation of the population of a particular species into smaller units. The organisms belonging to these subunits are prevented from interbreeding due to some barrier. These barriers are called isolating mechanisms.

2. They prevent the genetic exchange and gene flow.

3. Due to isolating mechanisms in nature the divergence among organisms takes place gradually leading to speciation. The isolating mechanisms are of two types namely, geographical isolation and reproductive isolation.

I. Geographical Isolation : The barrier in the form of physical distance or geographical barrier is called geographical isolation. The original population gets divided into two or more groups by geographical barriers such as river, ocean, mountain, glacier, etc. Organisms cannot cross the barriers on their own and hence interbreeding is prevented between isolated groups.

The separated groups experience different environmental factors and they acquire new traits by mutations. The separated populations develop distinct gene pool and they do not interbreed. Each subgroup then evolves differently which results into formation of new species. E.g. Darwin’s Finches, African elephant, Loxodonta and Indian elephant, Elephas.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 5 Origin and Evolution of Life

II. Reproductive Isolation : Two populations may be occupying the same area, they may not be separated by geographical barrier, but then also they are reproductively isolated. Such reproductive isolation occurs due to change in genetic material, gene pool and structure of genital organs. Such differences prevent interbreeding between population. Such isolation later leads to speciation.

III. Different types of reproductive isolations : Reproductive isolation is of two types, viz. pre-zygotic and post-zygotic isolating mechanisms.

  1. Pre-zygotic or pre-mating isolating mechanisms do not allow individuals to mate with each other at all.
  2. By various mechanisms the two groups remain isolated.
  3. In post-zygotic or post-mating isolating mechanisms, the two individuals can mate but the result of mating is not favourable.
  4. Thus the populations remain isolated without the actual genetic exchange.

Question 6.
What is Genetic variations? Explain the different factors responsible for genetic variations.
Answer:
Genetic variations : The change in gene and gene frequencies is known as genetic variation. Genetic variations are caused by following factors:
(i) Mutations : Sudden permanent heritable change is called mutation. Mutation can occur in the gene, in the chromosome structure and in chromosome number. Mutation that occurs within the single gene is called point mutation or gene mutation. This leads to the change in the phenotype of the organism, causing variations.

(ii) Genetic recombination : In sexually reproducing organisms, during gamete formation, exchange of genetic material occurs between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. This is called crossing over. It produces new genetic combinations which result in variation. Fertilization between opposite mating gametes leads to various recombinations resulting into the phenotypic variations. These result in change in the frequencies of alleles.

(iii) Gene flow : Gene flow is movement of genes into or out of a population. Gene movement may be in the form of migration of organism, or gametes (dispersal of pollens) or segments of DNA (transformation). Gene flow also alters gene frequency causing evolutionary changes.

(iv) Genetic drift : Any random fluctuation (alteration) in allele frequency, occurring in the natural population by pure chance, is called genetic drift. For example, when the size of a population is severely reduced due to natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, fires, etc. elimination of particular alleles from a population becomes possible. Smaller populations have greater chances for genetic drift. It results in the change in the gene frequency. Genetic drift is also an important factor for evolutionary change.

(v) Chromosomal aberrations : The structural, morphological change in chromosome due to rearrangement of genes is called chromosomal aberrations. Due to changes in the gene arrangement or gene sequence variations are caused.

Question 21.
Explain ring structure of glucose.
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 28
Glucose has two cyclic structures (II and III) which are in equilibrium with each other through the open chain structure (I) in aqueous solution.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 14 Biomolecules

The ring structure of glucose is formed by reaction between the formyl ( – CHO) group and the alcoholic (- OH) group at C – 5. Thus, the ring structure is called a hemiacetal. The two hemiacetal structures (II and III) differ only in the configuration of C – I (Fig.), the additional chiral centre resulting from ring closure. The two ring structures are called α- and β- anomers of glucose and C-l is called the anomeric carbon. The ring of the cyclic structure of glucose contains five carbons and one oxygen. Thus, it is a six membered ring. It is called pyranose structure, in analogy with the six membered heterαyclic compound pyran (IV). Hence glucose is also called glucopyranose.

Question 22.

Question 28.
Explain the structure of sucrose.
Answer:
Sucrose is a hexasaccharide and has molecular formula C12H22O11. The structure of shcrose contains glycosidic linkage between C – 1 of α-glucose and C – 2 of β-fructose. Since aldehyde and ketone groups of both monosaccharide units are involved in the formation of glycosidic bond, sucrose is a nonreducing sugar.

Sucrose is dextrorotatory, on hydrolysis with dilute acid or an enzyme invertase gives equimolar mixture of dextrorotatory glucose and laevorotatory fructose.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 36
The solution is laevorotatory because laevo rotation of fructose (- 92.4°) is more than dextrorotation of glucose ( + 52.50), hence the sign of rotation is changed from (+) to (-) after hydrolysis, the product is called invert sugar.

Answer:
Secondary structure of proteins : The three-dimensional arrangement of lαalized regions of a long polypeptide chain is called the secondary structure of protein. Hydrogen bonding between N-H proton of one amide linkage and C = O oxygen of another gives rise to the secondary structure. There are two different types of secondary structures i.e. α-helix and β-pleated sheet.

α-Helix : In a-helix structure, a polypeptide chain gets coiled by twisting into a right handed or clαkwise spiral known as a-helixn. The characteristic features of α-helical structure of protein are :
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 78
(1) Each turn of the helix has 3.6 amino acids.
(2) A C = O group of one amino acid is hydrogen bonded to N – H group of the fourth amino acid along the chain.
(3) Hydrogen bonds are parallel to the axis of helix while R groups extend outward from the helix core.
Myosin in muscle and a-keratin in hair are proteins with almost entire a-helical secondary structure.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 14 Biomolecules

β-Pleated sheet : In secondary structure, when two or more polypeptide chains (strands) line up side-by-side is called β-pleated sheets. The β-picate sheet structure of protein consists of extended strands of polypeptide chains held together by intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The characteristics of β-pleated sheet structure are :
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 79

  • The C = O and N – H bonds lie in the planes of the sheet.
  • Hydrogen bonding occurs between the N – H and C = O groups of nearby amino acid residues in the neighbouring chains.
  • The R groups are oriented above and below the plane of the sheet.

The β-pleated sheet arrangement is favoured by amino acids with small R groups.

Question 55.
What is denaturation of proteins? How is denaturation brought about?
OR
What is the effect of denaturation on the structure of proteins?
Answer:
The prαess by which the molecular shape of protein changes without breaking the amide / peptide bonds that form the primary structure is called denaturation. OR Proteins gets easily precipitated. It is an irreversible change and the prαess is called denaturation of proteins.

Denaturation uncoils the protein and destroys the shape and thus loses their characteristic biological activity. Denaturation is brought about by heating the protein with alcohol, concentrated inorganic acids or by salts of heavy metals. During denaturation secondary and tertiary and quternary structures are destroyed but primary structure remains intact.

Example : Boiling of egg to coagulate egg white, conversion of milk to curd.

Question 69.
Explain double helix.
OR
State the salient features of the Watson and Crick mode of DNA.
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 98
The Salient features are :

  1. DNA is made of two polynucleotide strands that wind into a right-handed double helix.
  2. The two strands run in opposite directions: one from the Y end to the 3’ end, while the other from the 3’ end to the Y end.
  3. Pcrpcndicular to the axis of the helix, the sugar – phosphate backbone lies on the outside of the helix and the bases lic on the inside.
  4. The hydrogen bonding between the hases of the two DNA strands stabilizes the double helix. This gives rise to a ladder-like structure of DNA double helix.
  5. Adenine always forms two hydrogen bonds with thymine and guanine forms three hydrogen bonds with cytosinc. Thus A – T arid C – G arc complementary hase pairs and the Two strands of the double helix arc complementary to each other.

Question iv.
Hydrolysis of sucrose is called inversion.
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 104
Sucrose is dextro rotatory. On hydrolysis it gives equimolar mixture of D – ( + ) glucose and D – ( -) fructose. Since the laevorotation of fructose (- 92.4°) is more than dextrorotation of glucose ( + 52.7°), the hydrolysis product has net laevorotation. Thus, hydrolysis of sucrose brings about a change in the sign of rotation, from dextro ( + ) to laevo (-) and the product is called as invert sugar and so the hydrolysis of sucrose is called inversion.

Question iv.
Secondary structure of the protein

Answer:
The structure of proteins can be studied at four different levels i.e. primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary levels. Each level is more complex than the previous one.
(1) Primary structure of proteins :
(a) Representation by structural formula
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 76

(b) Representation with amino acid symbols
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 77

Primary structure of proteins is the sequence of constituent a-amino acid residues linked by peptide bonds. Any change in the sequence of amino acid residue creates different protein molecule. Primary structure of proteins is represented by writing the three letter symbols of amino acid residues as per their sequence in the concerned protein. The symbols are separated by dashes. According to the convention, the N-terminal amino acid residue as written at the left end and the C-terminal amino acid residue at the right end.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules

(2) Secondary structure of proteins : The three-dimensional arrangement of lαalized regions of a long polypeptide chain is called the secondary structure of protein. Hydrogen bonding between N-H proton of one amide linkage and C = O oxygen of another gives rise to the secondary structure. There are two different types of secondary structures i.e. α-helix and β-pleated sheet.

α-Helix : In a-helix structure, a polypeptide chain gets coiled by twisting into a right handed or clαkwise spiral known as a-helixn. The characteristic features of α-helical structure of protein are :
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 78
(1) Each turn of the helix has 3.6 amino acids.
(2) A C = O group of one amino acid is hydrogen bonded to N – H group of the fourth amino acid along the chain.
(3) Hydrogen bonds are parallel to the axis of helix while R groups extend outward from the helix core.
Myosin in muscle and a-keratin in hair are proteins with almost entire a-helical secondary structure.

β-Pleated sheet : In secondary structure, when two or more polypeptide chains (strands) line up side-by-side is called β-pleated sheets. The β-picate sheet structure of protein consists of extended strands of polypeptide chains held together by intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The characteristics of β-pleated sheet structure are :
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 79

  • The C = O and N – H bonds lie in the planes of the sheet.
  • Hydrogen bonding occurs between the N – H and C = O groups of nearby amino acid residues in the neighbouring chains.
  • The R groups are oriented above and below the plane of the sheet.

The β-pleated sheet arrangement is favoured by amino acids with small R groups.

(3) Tertiary structure of proteins :
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules 80
The three-dimensional shape acquired by the entire polypeptide chain of a protein is called its tertiary structure. The structure is stabilized and has attractive interaction with the aqueous environment of the cell due to the folding of the chain in a particular manner. Tertiary structure gives rise to two major molecular shapes i.e. globular and fibrous proteins. The main forces which stabilize a particular tertiary structure include hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole attraction (due to polar bonds in the side chains), electrostatic attraction (due to the ionic groups like -COO, \(\mathrm{NH}_{3}^{+}\) in the side chain) and also London dispersion forces. Finally, disulfide bonds formed by oxidation of nearby – SH groups (in cysteine residues) are the covalent bonds which stabilize the tertiary structure.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 14 Biomolecules

(4) Quaternary structure of proteins The two or more polypeptide chains with folded tertiary structures forms complex protein. The spatial arrangements of these polypeptide chains with respect to each other is known as quaternary structure. Each individual polypeptide chain is called a subunit of the overall protein. For example: Haemoglobin consists of four subunits called haeme held together by intermolecular forces in a compact three dimensional shape. Haemoglobin can do its function of oxygen transport only when all the four subunits are together.

In acetylation reaction H atom of an (- OH) group is replaced by an acetyl group (- COH3).

This results in an increase in molecular mass by [(12 + 16 + 12 + 3 x 1) – 1] that has, 42 u. In the given alcohol, increase in molecular mass = 174 u – 90 u = 84 u
∴ Number of – OH groups \(=\frac{84 \mathrm{u}}{42 \mathrm{u}}=2\)

2. Answer the following in one or two sentences.

Question i.
Comment on the statement: No work is involved in an expansion of a gas in vacuum.
Answer:
(1) When a gas expands against an external pressure Pex, changing the volume from V1 to V2, the work obtained is given by
W = -Pex (V2 – V1).
(2) Hence the work is performed by the system when it experiences the opposing force or pressure.
(3) Greater the opposing force, more is the work.
(4) In free expansion, the gas expands in vaccum where it does not experience opposing force, (P = 0). Since external pressure is zero, no work is obtained.
∴ W = -Pex (V2 – V1)
= -0 × (V2 – V1)
= 0
(5) Since during expansion in vacuum no energy is expended, it is called free expansion.

Question ii.
State the first law of thermodynamics.
Answer:
The first law of thermodynamics is based on the principle of conservation of energy and can be stated in different ways as follows :

  1. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, however, it may be converted from one form into another.
  2. Whenever, a quantity of one kind of energy is consumed or disappears, an equivalent amount of another kind of energy appears.
  3. The total mass and energy of an isolated system remain constant, although there may be interconservation of energy from one form to another.
  4. The total energy of the universe remains constant.

Question v.
State whether ∆S is positive, negative or zero for the reaction 2H(g) → H2(g). Explain.
Answer:
(i) The given reaction, 2H(g) → H2(g) is the formation of H2(g) from free atoms.
(ii) Since two H atoms form one H2 molecule, ∆n = 1 – 2= -1 and disorder is decreased. Hence entropy change ∆S < 0 (or negative).

Question vi.
State second law of thermodynamics in terms of entropy.
Answer:
The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of the system and its surroundings (universe) increases in a spontaneous process.
OR
Since all the natural processes are spontaneous, the entropy of the universe increases.
It is expressed mathematically as
∆ STotal = ∆ Ssystem + ∆Ssurr > 0
∆ SUniverse = ∆ Ssystem + ∆ Ssurr > 0

Question vii.
If the enthalpy change of a reaction is ∆H how will you calculate entropy of surroundings?
Answer:
(i) For endothermic reaction, ∆H > 0. This shows the system absorbs heat from surroundings.
∴ ∆surr H < 0.
∵ Entropy change = ∆surr S = \(\frac{-\Delta_{\text {surr }} H}{T}\)
There is decrease in entropy of surroundings.
(ii) For exothermic reaction, ∆H < 0, hence for surroundings, ∆surr H > 0

∴ ∆surr > 0.

Question viii.
Comment on spontaneity of reactions for which ∆H is positive and ∆S is negative.
Answer:
Since ∆H is +ve and ∆S is -ve, ∆G will be +ve at all temperatures. Hence reactions will be non-spontaneous at all temperatures.

3. Answer in brief.

Question i.
Obtain the relationship between ∆G° of a reaction and the equilibrium constant.
Answer:
Consider following reversible reaction, aA + bB ⇌ cC + dD
The reaction quotient Q is,
Q = \(\frac{[\mathrm{C}]^{c} \times[\mathrm{D}]^{d}}{[\mathrm{~A}]^{a} \times[\mathrm{B}]^{b}}\)
The free energy change ∆G for the reaction is ∆G = ∆G° + RT in Q
Where ∆G° is the standard free energy change.
At equilibrium
Q = \(\frac{[\mathrm{C}]_{e}^{c} \times[\mathrm{D}]_{e}^{d}}{[\mathrm{~A}]_{e}^{a} \times[\mathrm{B}]_{e}^{b}}=\mathrm{K}\)
∴ ∆G = ∆G° + RT In K
∵ at equilibrium ∆G = 0
∴ 0 = AG° + RT In K
∴ ∆G° = -RT In K
∴ ∆G°= -2.303 RT log10K.

Question ii.
What is entropy? Give its units.
Answer:
(i) Entropy : Being a state function and thermodynamic function it is defined as entropy change (∆S) of a system in a process which is equal to the amount of heat transferred in a reversible manner (Qrev) divided by the absolute temperature (T), at which the heat is absorbed. Thus,
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 2
(ii) Units of entropy are JK-1 in SI unit and cal K-1 in c.g.s. units. It is also expressed in terms of entropy unit (e.u.). Hence 1 e.u. = 1 JK-1.
(iii) Entropy is a measure of disorder in the system. Higher the disorder, more is entropy of the system.

Question iii.
How will you calculate reaction enthalpy from data on bond enthalpies?
Answer:
(i) In chemical reactions, bonds are broken in the reactant molecules and bonds are formed in the product molecules.
(ii) Energy is always required to break a chemical bond while energy is always released in the formation of the bond.
(iii) The enthalpy change of a gaseous reactions (ΔfH0) involving substances with covalent bonds can be calculated with the help of bond enthalpies of reactants and products. (In case of solids we need lattice energy or heat of sublimation while in case of liquids we need heat of evaporation.)
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 3
If the energy required to break the bonds of reacting molecules is more than the energy released in the bond formation of the products, then the reaction will be endothermic and ∆H0 reaction will be positive. On the other hand if the energy released in the bond formation of the products is more than the energy required to break the bonds of reacting molecules then the reaction will be exothermic and ∆H0 reaction will be negative.

Question iv.
What is the standard enthalpy of combustion ? Give an example.
Answer:
Standard enthalpy of combustion or standard heat of combustion : it is defined as the enthalpy change when one mole of a substance in the standard state undergoes complete combustion in a sufficient amount of oxygen at constant temperature (298 K) and pressure (1 atmosphere or 1 bar). It is denoted by ∆cH0.
E.g. CH3OH(l) + \(\frac {3}{2}\) O2(g) = CO2(g) + 2H2O
cH0= -726 kJ mol-1
(∆cH0 is always negative.)
[Note : Calorific value : It is the enthalpy change or amount of heat liberated when one gram of a substance undergoes combustion.

Answer:
Enthalpy of atomisation (∆atomH) : it is the enthalpy change accompanying the dissociation of one mole of gaseous substance into its atoms at constant temperature and pressure.
For example : CH4(g) → C(g) + 4H(g)atomH = 1660 kJ mol-1

Question vi.
Obtain the expression for work done in chemical reaction.
Answer:
Consider n1 moles of gaseous reactants A of volume V1 change to n2 moles of gaseous products B of volume V2 at temperature T and pressure P.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 5
In the initial state, PV1 = n1RT
In the final state, PV2 = n2RT
PV2 – PV1 = n2RT – n1RT = (n2 – n1)RT = ∆nRT
where ∆n is the change in number of moles of gaseous products and gaseous reactants.
Due to net changes in gaseous moles, there arises change in volume against constant pressure resulting in mechanical work, -P∆V.
∴ W = -P∆V = -P(V2 – V1) = – ∆nRT
(i) If n1 – n2, ∆n = 0, W = 0. No work is performed.
(ii) If n2 > n1, ∆n > 0, there is a work of expansion by the system and W is negative.
(iii) If n2 < n1, ∆n < 0, there is a work of compression, hence work is done on the system and W is positive.

Question vii.
Derive the expression for PV work.
Answer:
Consider a certain amount of an ideal gas enclosed in an ideal cylinder fitted with massless, frictionless rigid movable piston at pressure P, occupying volume V1 at temperature T.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 6
Fig. 4.8 : Work of expansion
As the gas expands, it pushes the piston upward through a distance d against external force F, pushing the surroundings.
The work done by the gas is,
W = opposing force × distance = -F × d
-ve sign indicates the lowering of energy of the system during expansion.
If a is the cross section area of the cylinder or piston, then,
W = \(-\frac{F}{a}\) × d × a
Now the pressure is Pex = \(\frac{F}{a}\)
while volume change is, ΔV = d × a
∴ W = -Pex × ΔV
If during the expansion, the volume changes from V1 and V2 then, ΔV = V2 – V1
∴ W= -Pex(V2 – V1)
During compression, the work W is +ve, since the energy of the system is increased,
W = +Pex(V2 – V1)

Question viii.
What are intensive properties? Explain why density is intensive property.
Answer:
(A) Intensive property : It is defined as a property of a system whose magnitude is independent of the amount of matter present in the system.
Explanation :

  1. Intensive property is characteristic of the system, e.g., refractive index, density, viscosity, temperature, pressure, boiling point, melting point, freezing point of a pure liquid, surface tension, etc.
  2. The intensive properties are not additive.

(B) Density is a ratio of two extensive properties namely, mass and volume. Since the ratio of two extensive properties represents an intensive property, density is an intensive property. It does not depend on the amount of a substance.

4. Answer the following questions.

Question i.
Derive the expression for the maximum work.
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 7
Consider n moles of an ideal gas enclosed in an ideal cylinder fitted with a massless and frictionless movable rigid piston. Let V be the volume of the gas at a pressure P and a temperature T.
If in an infinitesimal change pressure changes from P to P – dP and volume increases from V to V + dV. Then the work obtained is, dW = -(P-dP) dV
= -PdV + dPdV
Since dP.dV is negligibly small relative to PdV
dW= -PdV
Let the state of the system change from A(P1, L1) to B (P2, V2) isothermally and reversibly, at temperature T involving number of infinitesimal steps.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 8
Then the total work or maximum work in the process is obtained by integrating above equation.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 9
At constant temperature,
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 10
where n, P, V and T represent number of moles, pressure, volume and temperature respectively. For the process,
ΔU = 0, ΔH = 0.
The heat absorbed in reversible manner
Qrev, is completely converted into work.
Qrev = -Wmax.
Hence work obtained is maximum.

Question ii.
Obtain the relatioship between ∆H and ∆U for gas phase reactions.
Answer:
Consider a reaction in which n1 moles of gaseous reactant in initial state change to n2 moles of gaseous product in the final state.
Let H1, U1, P1, V1 and H2, U2, P2, V2 represent enthalpies, internal energies, pressures and volumes in the initial and final states respectively then,
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 11
The heat of reaction is given by enthalpy change ΔH as,
ΔH = H2 – H1
By definition, H = U + PV
∴ H1 = U1 + P1V1 and H2 = U2+ P2V2
∴ ΔH = (U2 + P2V2) – (U1 + P1V1)
= (U2 – U1) + (P2V2 – P1V1)
Now, ΔU = U2 – U1
Since PV = nRT,
For initial state, P1V1= n1RT
For final state, P2V2 = n2RT
∴ P2V2 – P1V1 = n2RT – n1RT
= (n2 – n1) RT
= ΔnRT
where Δn
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 12
∴ ΔH = ΔU + ΔnRT
If QP and QV are the heats involved in the reaction at constant pressure and constant volume respectively, then since QP = ΔH and QV = ΔU.
∴ QP = QV = ΔnRT

Question iii.
State Hess’s law of constant heat summation. Illustrate with an example. State its applications.
Answer:
Statement of law of constant heat summation : It states that, the heat of a reaction or the enthalpy change in a chemical reaction depends upon initial state of reactants and final state of products and independent of the path by which the reaction is brought about (i.e. in single step or in series of steps).
OR
Heat of reaction is same whether it is carried out in one step or in several steps.
Explanation :
Consider the formation of CO2(g).
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 13

Question iv.
Although ∆S for the formation of two moles of water from H2 and O2 is -327 JK-1, it is spontaneous. Explain. (Given ∆H for the reaction is -572 kJ).
Answer:
Given : ΔS= -327 JK-1; ΔH = -572 kJ
ΔG = ΔH – TΔS, and ΔH << ΔS
∴ ΔG < 0, and hence the formation of H2O(l) is spontaneous.

Question v.
Obtain the relation between ∆G and ∆STotal. Comment on spontaneity of the reaction.
Answer:
(i) Gibbs free energy, G is defined as,
G = H – TS
where H is the enthalpy, S is the entropy of the system at absolute temperature T.
Since H, T and S are state functions, G is a state function and a thermodynamic function.

(ii) At constant temperature and pressure, change in free energy ΔG for the system is represented as, ∆G = ∆H – T∆S
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 4 Chemical Thermodynamics 14
This is called Gibbs free energy equation for ∆G. In this ∆S is total entropy change, i.e., ∆STotal.

(iii) The SI units of ∆G are J or kJ (or Jmol-1 or kJmol-1).
The c.g.s. units of ∆G are cal or kcal (or cal mol-1 or kcal mol-1.)

The second law explains the conditions of spontaneity as below :
(i) ∆Stotal > 0 and ∆G < 0, the process is spontaneous.
(ii) ∆Stotal < 0 and ∆G > 0, the process is nonspontaneous.
(iii) ∆Stotal = 0 and ∆G = 0, the process is at equilibrium.

Question viii.
Calculate the work done in the decomposition of 132 g of NH4NO3 at 100 °C.
NH4NO3(s) → N2O(g) + 2 H2O(g)
State whether work is done on the system or by the system.
Answer:
NH44NO3(s) → N2O(g) + 2 H2O(g)
mNH4NO3 = 132 g; MNH4NO3 = 80 g mol-1
T = 273 + 100 = 373 K; Δn = ?
For the reaction,
Δn = Σn2 gaseous products – Σn1 gaseous reactants
= 3 – 0 = 3 mol
Since there is an increase in number of gaseous moles, the work is done by the system.
nNH4NO3 = \(\frac{m_{\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{NO}_{3}}}{M_{\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{NO}_{3}}}\)
= \(\frac{132}{80}\)
= 1.65 mol
For 1 mol NH4NO3(s) Δn = 3 mol
∴ For 1.65 mol NH4NO3(s) Δn = 3 × 1.65 = 4.95 mol
W = -ΔnRT = -4.95 × 8.314 × 373
= – 15350 J

2. Very Short Answer Questions

Question 1.
Explain the statements
a. Test cross is back cross but back cross is not necessarily a test cross.
b. Law of dominance is not universal.
Answer:
a. (1) Test cross is the cross between F1 hybrid and its homozygous recessive parent.
(2) Back cross is the cross of offspring with any one of the parents, either dominant or recessive.
(3) Therefore, test cross can be a back cross – but back cross cannot be a test cross.

b. (1) There are many traits in many organisms which show dominance. For example, widow’s peak in human beings is a dominant trait. Yellow seed colour and round seed shape are dominant traits in pea plant.
(2) However, there are characters which are either co-dominant, such as genes for human blood group A and B or incompletely dominant as in flower colour of Mirabilis jalapa.
(3) Therefore the law of dominance is not universally applicable.

Question 2.
Define the following terms:
a. Dihybrid cross
b. Homozygous
c. Heterozygous
d. Test cross
Answer:
a. A cross between parents differing in two heritable traits is called dihybrid cross.
b. An individual possessing identical alleles for a particular trait is called homozygous or pure for that trait. E.g. TT for tallness and tt for dwarfness.
c. An individual possessing contrasting allele for a particular trait is called heterozygous. E.g. Tt showing tallness.
d. The cross of F1 progeny with homozygous recessive parent is called a test cross.

3. Short Answer Questions

Question 1.
Enlist seven traits of pea plant selected / studied by Mendel.
Answer:
Seven traits in pea selected by Mendel:

  1. Tall habit versus dwarf habit (Height of the plant).
  2. Purple flowers versus white flowers. (Colour of flowers)
  3. Yellow seeds versus green seeds. (Colour of seeds)
  4. Round seeds versus wrinkled seeds. (Shape of seeds)
  5. Green pods versus yellow pods. (Colour of pods)
  6. Inflated pods versus constricted pods. (Shape of pods)
  7. Axial flower versus terminal flower. (Position of a flower)

Question 2.
Why law of segregation is also called the law of purity of gametes?
Answer:
(1) Mendel’s law of segregation is also called Law of purity of gametes because, during formation of gametes, the alleles separate/ segregate from each other and only one allele enters a gamete.

(2) The separation of one allele does not affect other. Since single allele enters a gamete means gametes will be pure for a trait.
E.g. The contrasting characters such as tall (T) and dwarf (t) present in F1 hybrid (Tt) segregate during the formation of gametes.

(3) Owing to this, two types of gametes i.e. T and t are formed which are pure for the characters which they carry.
(4) Thus for example:

Question 3.
Pleiotropy.
Answer:

  1. When a single gene controls two or more different traits, it is called a pleiotropic gene and the phenomenon is known as pleiotropy or pleiotropism.
  2. The pleiotropic ratio is always 1 : 2 instead . of normal 3 : 1.
  3. Sickle-cell anaemia is caused by the gene HbS. The healthy or normal gene which is dominant is HbA. The heterozygotes or carriers i.e., HbA/Hbs show anaemia as there is deficiency of haemoglobin due to sickling of RBCs. Abnormally low concentration of oxygen can cause sickling of RBCs.
  4. The homozygotes possessing the recessive gene HbS die because of fatal anaemia because the gene for sickle-cell anaemia is lethal in homozygous condition and causes sickle-cell trait in heterozygous carrier.
  5. Thus a single gene produces two different expressions.
  6. When two carriers are married they will produce normal carriers and Sickle-cell anaemic children in the ratio of 1 : 2 : 1. Out of these three children sickle-cell anaemic child will die leaving the ratio 1 : 2 instead of 3 : 1.

Answer:
Reasons for Mendel’s success:

  1. Mendel planned his experiments carefully and these experiments consisted of large sample.
  2. He always recorded the results of number of plants of each type and their ratios.
  3. The contrasting characters that he chose were easily recognizable.
  4. The seven pairs of contrasting characters that he selected were under control of a single factor each. They were present on separate chromosomes and were transmitted from one generation to the next.
  5. Mendel studied and introduced concept of dominance and recessiveness.

Question 5.

  1. Human made is heterogame tic, i.e. he produces two different types of sperms. One is bearing X chromosome along with 22 autosomes and the other is Y bearing sperm with 22 autosomes.
  2. Mother, on the other hand, is homogametic, producing all similar types of ova, i.e 22 + X chromosomal combination.
  3. If 22+X bearing sperm fertilise an egg, female child is formed while if Y bearing sperm fertilizes an egg, male child is formed.
  4. Thus the sex of the child is dependent upon type of sperm that father gives, therefore, it is said that father is responsible for determination of sex of a child and not the mother.

Question 6.
What is linkage? How many linkage groups do occur in human being and maize?
Answer:

  1. Linkage is defined as the tendency of the genes to be inherited together because they are present in the same chromosome. Linkage group is group of genes situated on a chromosome.
  2. Humans have 23 linkage groups because they have 23 pairs of chromosomes.
  3. Maize plant has 10 linkage groups because they have 10 pairs of chromosomes.

Question 7.
PKU.
Answer:

  1. PKU means phenylketonuria which is an autosomal recessive inborn error.
  2. In this disorder the metabolism of phenylalanine does not occur due to deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) enzyme.
  3. This enzyme is necessary to metabolize the amino acid phenylalanine to the amino acid tyrosine.
  4. When PAH activity is reduced, phenylalanine accumulates in blood and cerebrospinal fluid and is converted into phenylpyruvate or phenyl-ketone which is a toxic compound. This may cause mental retardation. Excess phenylalanine is excreted in urine, hence this disease is called phenylketonuria.
  5. PKU is caused by mutations in the PAH gene on chromosome no. 12.
  6. Untreated PKU causes abnormal phenotype which includes growth failure, poor skin pigmentation, microcephaly, seizures, global developmental delay and severe intellectual impairment. However, at birth if an infant is checked for PKU, the further abnormalities can be avoided.

Question 8.
Compare X-chromosome and Y-chromosome.
Answer:

X-chromosome Y-chromosome
1. X-chromosome is straight, rod like and longer 1. than Y chromosome. It is metacentric. 1. Y-chromosome is shorter chromosome which is acrocentric.
2. X-chromosome has large amount of euchromatin and small amount of heterochromatin. 2. Y-chromosome has small amount of euchromatin and large amount of heterochromatin.
3. X-chromosome has large amount of DNA, hence it is genetically active due to more genes. 3. Y-chromosome has less amount of DNA, hence it is genetically less active or inert due to lesser genes.
4. Non-homologous region of X-chromosome is longer and contains more genes. 4. Non-homologous region of Y-chromosome is shorter and contains lesser genes.
5. Contains X-linked genes on non-homologous region. 5. Contains Y-linked genes on non-homologous region.
6. X-chromosome is present in men as well as women. 6. Y-chromosome is present only in men.

Question 9.
Explain the chromosomal theory of inheritance.
Answer:
Chromosomal theory of inheritance was put forth by Sutton and Boveri after studying paraillel behaviour of genes and chromosomes during meiotic division. This theory states following points:

  1. Chromosomal theory identifies chromosomes as the carrier of genetic material.
  2. All the hereditary characters are transmitted by gametes. Nucleus of gametes, i.e. sperms and ova of the parents contain chromosomes which transmit the heredity to offspring.
  3. Chromosomes are found in pairs in somatic or diploid cells.
  4. During gamete formation, homologous chromosomes pair and segregate independently at meiosis. The diploid condition is converted into haploid condition. Thus each gamete contains only one chromosome of a pair.
  5. During fertilization, the union of sperm and egg restores the diploid number of chromosomes.

Question 10.
Observe the given pedigree chart and answer the following questions
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 3 Inheritance and Variation 2
(a) Identify whether the trait is sex-linked or autosomal.
(b) Give an example of a trait in human beings which shows such a pattern of inheritance.
Answer:
Pedigree given above shows:

  1. First Generation : Carrier woman marrying a sufferer man. Their three children are in following birth order.
  2. Second generation : First son is normal, second daughter is carrier and third daughter is sufferer.
  3. Third generation : The sufferer daughter marries a normal man. Her children are normal daughter and sufferer son.

(a) The above pedigree show sex-linked (X-linked) trait. Since criss-cross inheritance is seen in the trait, it must be sex-linked inheritance.
(b) Such trait and its inheritance can be seen in colour blindness.

5. Long Answer Questions

Question 1.
What is dihybrid cross? Explain with suitable example and checker board method.
Answer:
1. A cross which involves two pairs of alleles is called a dihybrid cross. A phenotypic ratio of 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 obtained in the F2 generation of a dihybrid cross is called a dihybrid ratio.

(2) Thus for example, when we cross a true breeding pea plant bearing round and yellow seeds with a true breeding pea plant bearing wrinkled and green seeds we get pea plants bearing round and yellow seeds in the F1 generation.

(3) When F1 plants are selfed, we get a ratio of 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 in the F2 generation, where 9 plants bear yellow round seeds, 3 plants bear yellow wrinkled seeds, 3 plants bear green round seeds and 1 plant bears green wrinkled seeds.

(4) Parents (P1) : RRYY × rryy
Gametes of P1 RY and ry
F1 generation : RrYy(Yellow round)
On selfing F1 : RrYy × RrYy
Gametes of F1 : RY, Ry, rY, ry

P2 generation:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 3 Inheritance and Variation 3
Round Yellow : 9 Round green : 3 Wrinkled yellow : 3 Wrinkled green : 1
Phenotypic ratio : 9 : 3 : 3 : 1
Genotypic ratio : 1 : 2 : 1 : 2 : 4 : 2 : 1 : 2 : 1

Question 2.
Explain with suitable example an independent assortment.
Answer:
(1) The law of independent assortment states that when hybrid possessing two or more pairs of contrasting characters bearing alleles form gametes, the alleles in each pair segregate independently of the other pair. Therefore, the inheritance of one pair of characters is independent of that of the other pair of characters.
(2) For example, when we cross a pea plant which is tall and having purple flowers with dwarf plant having white flowers we obtain all tall plants with purple flowers in F1 generation. When F1 generation are selfed, 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 ratio was obtained in F2 generation with 9 tall and purple flower, 3 tall with white flowers, 3 dwarf with purple flowers and 1 which was dwarf and white. Tallness and purple colour are dominant traits while dwarfness and white colour are recessive traits.

(i) Homozygous tall purple – TTPP
(ii) Homozygous dwarf white – ttpp
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 3 Inheritance and Variation 4
Tall purple = 9. Tall white = 3
Dwarf purple = 3, Dwarf white = 1,
Phenotypic ratio = 9 : 3 : 3 : 1
Results : The offspring of F1 generation will be in the proportion of 9 : 3 : 3 : 1, where 9 are tall purple, 3 are tall white, 3 are dwarf purple and 1 is dwarf white.

Question 3.
Define test cross and explain its significance.
Answer:
1. Definition of test cross : A cross between F1 offspring and its homozygous recessive parent is called a test cross.
2. Significance of test cross:

  • Test cross can be used to find out the genotype of any plant which shows dominant characters.
  • Whether the plant is homozygous or heterozygous can be understood by performing test cross.
  • Test cross is used to introduce useful recessive traits in the hybrids of self- pollinated plants.
  • Test cross is quicker method to improve the variety of crop plants and thus it is useful for breeders and geneticists.
  • Test cross can be used for verifying the laws of inheritance.

Question 4.
What is parthenogenesis? Explain the haplodiploid method of sex determination in honey bee.
Answer:
I. Parthenogenesis is a natural form of asexual reproduction in which growth and development of embryos occur without fertilization by sperm. In some insects like honey bees, parthenogenesis means development of an embryo from an unfertilized egg cell.

II. In honey bee:

  1. Sex determination is by haplodiploid system.
  2. Sex is determined by the number of sets of chromosomes received by an individual.
  3. The egg which is fertilized by sperm, becomes diploid and develops into female.
  4. The egg which is not fertilized develops by parthenogenesis and develops into a male.
  5. The queen and worker bee therefore contain 32 chromosomes. The drone, i.e. male bears 16 chromosomes.
  6. The sperms are produced by mitosis while eggs are produced by meiosis.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 3 Inheritance and Variation 5

Question 5.
In the answer for inheritance of X-linked. genes, Madhav had shown carrier male. His answer was marked incorrect. Madhav was wondering why his marks were cut. Explain the reason.
Answer:
Males can never be carriers. They have single X and other Y chromosome. In X linked inheritance, the genes are present on the non-homologous region of X chromosome. Males do not have other X and hence if the genes are present on his X chromosome, they will not be suppressed in them. The Y chromosome does not have dominant gene to hide this expression as there is no homolorous region too. But in case of females, there are double X chromosomes and hence if X-linked gene is recessive, the other X can hide the expression of such X-linked gene.

Thus she becomes a carrier without showing any physical characters. She is physically normal and does not suffer from such X-linked recessive disorder. Thus, Madhav will get his answer wrong due to incorrect concept.

Question 6.
With the help of neat labelled diagram, describe the structure of chromosome.
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 3 Inheritance and Variation 6
(1) A chromosome is best visible during metaphase, when it is highly condensed.

(2) Chromosome shows two identical halves, called sister chromatids. Chromatids are held together at centromere which is also called primary constriction.

(3) Primary constriction has disc shaped plate called kinetochore. This plate is useful for attachment of spindle fibres at the time of cell division.

(4) Additional narrow areas called secondary constrictions are seen in some chromosomes which are known as nucleolar organizers. They help in the formation of nucleolus. At secondary constriction (i) there is nucleolar organising region. Secondary constriction (ii) shows attachment of satellite body or SAT body.

(5) Each chromatid is made up of sub¬chromatids called chromonemata. Each chromonema consists of a long, unbranched, slender, highly coiled DNA thread. This double stranded DNA molecule extends throughout the length of the chromosome.

(6) The ends of the chromatid arms are called telomeres.

Question 7.
What is criss-cross inheritance? Explain with suitable example.
Answer:
Criss-cross inheritance is the type of inheritance in which the genes are passed on from father to daughter and then to her son, i.e. from male to female and from female to male (grandson). In other words, it is also said that the transmission is from the grandfather to his grandson through his daughter.

I. Inheritance of Colour blindness show criss-cross pattern.
(1) Colour blindness is a sex-linked disorder in which the person concerned cannot distinguish between red and green colours.

(2) It is recessively X-linked disorder, which is expressed in males. It is rarely seen in females.

(3) The genes for normal vision are dominant whereas those for colour blindness are recessive.

(4)

  • Gene for normal vision : XC
  • Gene for colour blindness : Xc
  • Normal female : XCXC
  • Normal male : XCY
  • Colour blind female : XcXc
  • Carrier female : XCXc
  • Colour blind male : Xc Y

II. Crosses showing the inheritance of colour blindness:
(i) A cross between normal female and colour-blind male.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 3 Inheritance and Variation 7

(ii) A cross of carrier female with normal male.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 3 Inheritance and Variation 8

(1) Normal female with Colour blind male. Such cross produces 50% carrier daughters and 50% normal sons.

(2) Carrier female with normal male. Such a cross produces 25% normal daughters, 25% normal sons, 25% carrier daughters and 25% colour blind sons.

(3) Colour blind father transmits the disorder to his grandson through his carrier daughter. The inheritance of characters from the father to his grandson through his daughter is called criss-cross inheritance.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Biology Solutions Chapter 3 Inheritance and Variation

Question 8.
Describe the different types of chromosomes.
Answer:
I. Chromosomes are classified into the following four types according to the position of the centromere in them:
(1) Metacentric : In metacentric chromosome, the centromere is situated in the middle of the chromosome. The two arms of the chromosome are nearly equal. It appears ‘V’-shaped during anaphase.

(2) Sub-metacentric : In sub-metacentric chromosome, the centromere is situated some distance away from the middle. Due to this, one arm of the chromosome is shorter than the other. It appears T-shaped during anaphase.

(3) Acrocentric : In acrocentric chromosome, the centromere is situated near the end of the chromosome. One arm of the acrocentric chromosome is very short while the other is long making it appear like ‘J’-shaped during anaphase.

(4) Telocentric : In telocentric chromosome, the centromere is situated at the tip of the chromosome. Telocentric chromosome has only one arm thus it appears rod-shaped.

II. Based on the functions, chromosomes are divided into autosomes and allosomes. Autosomes are somatic chromosomes which decide the body characters. Allosomes are sex chromosomes which decide the sex of the individual.

Answer:
This statement is False.
Prepaid expenses are expenses that are paid before they are due. Therefore, they are considered an asset of the business organization.

Question 6.
If the partnership deed is silent, partners share profits and losses in proportion to their capital.
Answer:
This statement is False.
As per the provisions made under the Indian Partnership Act 1932, when a partnership deed is silent about profit and loss sharing ratio, partners are supposed to share profits and losses in equal proportion, and not in their capital ratio.

Question 7.
Balance Sheet is an Account.
Answer:
This statement is False.
A financial statement showing all assets and liabilities is called a Balance sheet. It is not an account. It is a position statement that shows various assets owned by the firm and various liabilities owned by it. On the left-hand side, all liabilities are listed and on the right-hand side, all assets are recorded.

Question 8.
Wages paid for the installation of machinery is a Revenue expenditure.
Answer:
This statement is False.
Wages paid for the installation of machinery is a capital expenditure and therefore it is added to the cost of machinery. It is generally, paid once in a life of an asset. It is a long-term and capital expenditure.

Question 9.
Income received in advance is a liability.
Answer:
This statement is True.
When Income in respect to next year, it received in the current year, it is known as income received in advance. So, in next year firm will not be able to receive that amount and therefore it is considered as a liability for the current year.

Question 10.
R.D.D. is created on Creditors.
Answer:
This statement is Raise.
R.D.D. stands for Reserve for Doubtful Debts. It is created on the value of debtors. Such provision is made against profit and loss accounts. In the future, if the loss is incurred on account of bad debts, such an amount is used to run the business.

Maharashtra Board 12th BK Textbook Solutions Chapter 1 Introduction to Partnership and Partnership Final Accounts

Question 11.
Depreciation is not calculated on Current Assets.
Answer:
This statement is True.
Current Assets mean liquid assets having no fixed tenure therefore depreciation cannot be calculated on it. Depreciation is calculated and charged on fixed assets for their use, wear and tear, etc.

Question 12.
Goodwill is an intangible asset.
Answer:
This statement is True.
Goodwill is a reputation of business computed in terms of money. Reputation can be experienced but can’t be seen or felt. Therefore, Goodwill is an intangible asset.

Question 13.
Indirect expenses are debited to Trading Account.
Answer:
This statement is Raise.
Indirect expenses mean expenses that are not directly related to the production of goods and services. Therefore, indirect expenses cannot be debited to Trading Account. All indirect expenses are debited to the Profit and Loss Account.

Question 14.
A bank loan is a current liability.
Answer:
This statement is Raise.
A loan usually taken for the period of more than 1 year say 5 years from the bank is called Bank Loan. It is a long term loan. It is not repaid within 1 year but paid in installments over a number of years. It might be paid in lumpsum at the expiry of the term.

Question 15.
Net profit is the debit balance of Profit and Loss Account.
Answer:
This statement is Raise.
In a Profit and Loss Account, when the credit side total i.e. a total of incomes is more than the debit side total, i.e. expenses it is known as a credit balance. When incomes exceed expenses there is profit. Therefore credit balance of the Profit and Loss Account indicates net profit.

Question 1.
Undervaluation of closing stock by 10%, closing stock was ₹ 30,000. Find out the value of the closing stock.
Solution:
Undervaluation of closing stock by 10 %
Revised value = \(\frac{\text { Book value }}{100-\% \text { of undervaluation }} \times 100\)
= \(\frac{30,000}{100-10} \times 100\)
= ₹ 33,333.
∴ Value of closing stock = ₹ 33,333.

Question 2.
Calculate 12.5% P.A. depreciation on Furniture:
(a) on ₹ 220,000 for 1 year
(b) on ₹ 10,000 for 6 months
Solution:
Depreciation = Amount of asset × Period × %
(a) Depreciation on furniture = 220,000 × 1 × \(\frac{12.5}{100}\) = ₹ 27,500
∴ Deprecation on furniture for 1 year = ₹ 27,500

(b) Depreciation on furniture = 10,000 × \(\frac{6}{12} \times \frac{12.5}{100}\) = ₹ 625
∴ Depreciation on furniture for 6 months = ₹ 625

Question 3.
The insurance premium is paid for the year ending on 1st September 2019 amounted to ₹ 1500. Calculate prepaid insurance assuming that the year-end is 31st March 2019.
Solution:
From 31st March to 1st September, 5 months period prepaid insurance amount we have to find.
An insurance premium paid for the 12 months = ₹ 1500
∴ for 5 months period it is 1500 × \(\frac{5}{12}\) = ₹ 625

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 13 Amines 240
Answer:
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 13 Amines 77

Question ii.
Explain the basic nature of amines with suitable example.
Answer:
The basic strength of amines is expressed in terms of Kb or pKb value. According to Lowry-Bron-sted theory the basic nature of amines is explained by the following equilibrium equation.
Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 13 Amines 80

In this equilibrium amine accepts H+, hence an amine is a Lowry-Bronsted base.

According to Lewis theory, the species which donates a pair of electrons is called a base.

The nitrogen atom in amiqes has a lone pair of electrons, which can be donated to suitable acceptor like proton H+.

The aqueous solutions of amines are basic in nature due to release of free OH ions in solutions. Hence amines are Lewis bases. There exists an equilibrium in their aqueous solutions as follows :

R – NH2 + H2O ⇌ RNH3 + OH

Since OH is a stronger base, equilibrium shifts towards left-hand side giving less concentration of OH.

Here, Kb value is smaller and pKb value is larger.

Hence amines are weak bases.

Question x.
Explain Ammonolysis of alkyl halides.
Answer:
When an alkyl halide is heated with alcoholic ammonia in a sealed tube under pressure at 373 K, a mixture of primary, secondary, tertiary amines and a quaternary ammonium salt is obtained. In this reaction, breaking of C – X bond by ammonia is called ammonolysis of alkyl halides. The reaction is also known as alkylation. For example, when methyl bromide is heated with alcoholic ammonia at 373 K, it gives a mixture of methylamine (a primary amine), dimethylamine (a secondary amine), trimethyl amine (a tertiary amine) and tetramethylam- monium bromide (a quaternary ammonium salt).

Problem 13.1 : (Textbook Page No 295)

Question 1.
Write the scheme for preparation of p-bromoaniline from aniline. Justify your answer.
Solution :
NH2 – group in aniline is highly ring activating and o – /p – directing due to involvement of the lone pair of electrons on ‘N’ in resonance with the ring. As a result, on reaction with Br2 it gives 2,4,6-tribromoaniline. To get a monobromo product, it is necessary to decrease the ring activating effect of – NH2 group. This is done by acetylation of aniline. The lone pair of ‘N’ in acetanilide is also involved in resonance in the acetyl group. To that extent, ring activation decreases.

Maharashtra Board Class 12 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 13 Amines 167

Hence, acetanilide on bromination gives a monobromo product p-bromoacetanilide. After monobromination the original – NH2 group is regenerated. The protection of – NH2 group in the form of acetyl group is removed by acid catalyzed hydrolysis to get p-bromoaniline, as shown in the following scheme.

Question 1.
(1) Can aniline react with a Lewis acid?
(2) Why aniline does not undergo Frledel – Craft’s reaction using aluminium chloride?
Answer:
(1) Aniline reacts with a Lewis acid, forms salt.
(2) Aniline does not undergo Friedcl-Crafr’s reaction (alkylation and acetylation) due to salt formation with aluminium chloride (Lewis acid), which is used as catalyst. Due to this, nitrogen of anime acquires + ve charge and hence acts as strong deactivating effect on the ring and makes it difficult for electrophilic attack.
