When extremely small particles X derived from the anther of a flower were suspended in a liquid Y and observed through a microscope, it was found that the particles X were moving throughout the liquid Y in a very zig-zag way. It was also observed that warmer the liquid Y, faster the particles X moved on its surface. What could particles X be ? (b) What do you think liquid Y is ? (c ) What is zig-zag movement of X known as ? (d) What is causing the zig-zag movement of particles X ? (e) Name the scientist who discovered this phenomenon. (f) What does this experiment tell us about the nature of liquid Y ?

A student places a candle flame at a distance of about 60 cm from a convex lens of focal length 10 cm and focuses the umage of the flame on a screen. After that he gradually moves the flame towards the lens and each time focuses the image on the screen. (a) In which direction-toward or away from the lens, does he move the screen to focus the image ? (b) How does the size of the image change ? (c) How does the intensity of the image change as the flame moves towards the lens ? (d) Approximately for what distance between the flame and the lens, the image formed on the screen is inverted and of the same size ?

When a beam of sunlight enters a room through a window, we can see tiny particles X suspended in a gas (or rather a mixture of gases) Y which are moving rapidly in a very haphazard manner.
