The correct Answer is:
To determine which statements are incorrect, we will analyze each statement one by one. **Step 1: Analyze Statement (i)** - Statement: "A bag placed below the seat of a moving bus is in motion with respect to the floor of the bus." - Analysis: The bag is inside the bus and moves along with it. Therefore, with respect to the floor of the bus, the bag is at rest. This statement is incorrect. **Step 2: Analyze Statement (ii)** - Statement: "While measuring the length of an object using a metre scale, use the zero-mark even if the ends are worn out." - Analysis: If the ends of the metre scale are worn out, the zero-mark may not be accurate. Using the zero-mark in this case would lead to measurement errors. This statement is also incorrect. **Step 3: Analyze Statement (iii)** - Statement: "Blinking of eyes is an example of periodic motion." - Analysis: Periodic motion is defined as motion that repeats at regular intervals. Blinking is not consistent and can vary from person to person, making it a random motion rather than a periodic one. This statement is incorrect. **Step 4: Analyze Statement (iv)** - Statement: "If a body as a whole moves around in a circular path, the motion is known as revolution." - Analysis: This statement is correct. When an object moves in a circular path around a fixed point, it is indeed described as revolution. **Conclusion:** The incorrect statements are (i), (ii), and (iii). **Final Answer:** The incorrect statements are: - (i) A bag placed below the seat of a moving bus is in motion with respect to the floor of the bus. - (ii) While measuring length of an object using a metre scale, use the zero-mark even if the ends are worn out. - (iii) Blinking of eyes is an example of periodic motion. ---
