Science, like any knowledge, can be put to good or bad use, depending on the user. Given below are some of the applications of science. Formulate your views on whether the particular application is good, bad or something that cannot be so clearly categorised : (a) Mass vaccination against small pox to curb and finally eradicate this disease from the population. (This has already been successfully done in India). (b) Television for eradication of illiteracy and for mass communication of news and ideas. (c) Prenatal sex determination (d) Computers for increase in work efficiency (e) Putting artificial satellites into orbits around the Earth (f ) Development of nuclear weapons (g) Development of new and powerful techniques of chemical and biological warfare). (h) Purification of water for drinking (i) Plastic surgery (j ) Cloning

Find mismatched pair. (a) Gene flow - Bound to happen between population of two different species. (b) Genetic drift - Frequency of certain genes in a population changed over generation. (c) Genetical variation - Inherited trait (d) Gene - An informative section of DNA for protein

It is a common observation that rain clouds can be at about a kilometer altitude above the ground. (a) If a rain drop falls from such a height freely under gravity, what will be its speed? Also calculate in km/h (g = 10 m//s^(2) ). (b) A typical rain drop is about 4 mm diameter. Momentum is mass x speed in magnitude. Estimate its momentum when it hits ground. (c) Estimate the time required to flatten the drop. (d) Rate of change of momentum is force. Estimate how much force such a drop would exert on you. (e) Estimate the order of magnitude force on umbrella. Typical lateral separation between two rain drops is 5 cm. (Assume that umbrella is circular and has a diameter of 1 m and cloth is not pierced through.)

(a) Pressure decreases as one ascends the atmosphere . If the density of air is rho ,what is the change in pressure dp over differential height dh ? (b) Considering the pressure P to be proportional to the density find the pressure P at a height h if the pressure on the surface of the earth is P_(o) . (c ) If P_(o)=1.03xx10^(5)N//m^(-2),rho_(o)=1.29kg//m^(3)andg=9.8m//s^(2) what height will the pressure frop to (1)/(10) the value at the surface of earth ? (d) This model of the atmosphere works for relatively small distance .Identify the underlying assumption that limits the model.

Figure shows a metal rod PQ resting on the smooth rails AB and positioned between the poles of a permanent magnet. The rails, the rod, and the magnetic field are in three mutual perpendicular directions. A galvanometer G connects the rails through a switch K. Length of the rod =15 cm, B =0.50 T, resistance of the closed loop containing the rod 9.0 m Omega . Assume the field to be uniform. (a) Suppose K is open and the rod is moved with a speed of 12 "cm s"^(-1) in the direction shown. Give the polarity and magnitude of the induced emf. (b) Is there an excess charge built up at the ends of the rods when K is open ? What if K is closed ? (c) With K open and the rod moving uniformly, there is no net force on the electrons in the rod PQ even though they do experience magnetic force due to the motion of the rod. Explain. (d) What is the retarding force on the rod when K is closed ? How much power is required (by an external agent) to keep the rod moving at the same speed (= 12 cm s^(-1) ) when K is closed ? How much power is required when K is open? (f)How much power is dissipated as heat in the closed circuit ? What is the source of this power ? (g) What is the induced emf in the moving rod if the magnetic field is parallel to the rails instead of being perpendicular ?
