Solution:
MRP = Rs. 12,000, Discount % = 30%, GST= 18%
Discount = 30% of 12,000= \(\frac{30}{100}\) × 12000 = Rs. 3600

CGST= 9% of 8400 = Rs. 756
SGST= 9% of 8400 = Rs. 756
IGST= 0
Amount of Bill = Selling price + CGST + SGST = 8400 + 756 + 756 = Rs. 9912

Discount = 20% of 50,000 = \(\frac{20}{100}\) × 50,000 = Rs. 10,000
Selling price (discounted value) = 50,000 – 10,000
= Rs. 40,000
CGST = 0
SGST = 0
IGST = 28% of 40,000 = \(\frac{28}{100}\) × 40,000 = Rs. 11,200
Amount of Bill = Selling price + IGST
= 40,000 + 11,200
= Rs. 51,200

S.P. at station B =
Now the same goods/services are moved under inter-state transaction from station B to station C and the rate of tax is 12%.
GST =
C.P. at station C =
Solution:
When the goods/services are sold for Rs. 15,000 under intra-state transaction from station A to station B and the rate of GST is 12%.
As per GST System
S.P. at station A = Rs. 15,000
CGST = 6% of 15,000 = Rs. 900
SGST = 6% of 15,000 = Rs. 900
C.P. at station B = Rs. 15,000
If profit = Rs. 5000
S.P. at station B = 15,000 + 5000
= Rs. 20,000
Now the same goods/services are moved under inter-state transaction from station B to station C and the b rate of tax is 12%.
GST = 12% of 20,000
= Rs. 2400
C.P. at station C = Rs. 20,000

Question 2.
Goods/services are sold from Agra (U.P.) to Kanpur (U.P.) for Rs. 20,000 and then from Kanpur to Jaipur (Rajasthan). If the rate of GST is 18% and the profit made at Kanpur is Rs. 5000, find:

  • the net GST payable by the dealer at Kanpur.
  • the cost of goods/services at Jaipur.

Solution:
When the product is sold from Agra to Kanpur (intra-state transaction)
For the dealer in Agra :
S. P. in Agra = Rs. 20,000
CGST = 9% of Rs. 20,000 = \(\frac{9}{100}\) × 20,000 = 1800
SGST = 9% of Rs. 20,000 = \(\frac{9}{100}\) × 20,000 = 1800
When product is sold from Kanpur to Jaipur (inter-state transaction)
For the dealer in Kanpur
Input-tax credit = 1800 + 1800 = Rs. 3600
C. P. = Rs. 20,000 and Profit = Rs. 5000
S.P. = 20,000 + 5000 = Rs. 25,000
IGST = 18% of 25,000 = Rs. 4500

Net GST paid by the dealer at Kanpur
= Output GST – Input GST
= 4500 – 3600
= Rs. 900

The cost of goods/services at Jaipur
= S. P. in Agra + IGST
= 25,000 + 18% of 25000
= 25,000 + 4500
= Rs. 29,500

Question 3.
Goods/services are sold from Kota (Rajasthan) to Mumbai for Rs. 20,000 and then from Mumbai to Pune. If the rate of GST is 12% and the profit made at Mumbai is Rs. 5000; find the net GST paid at Pune, if the dealer at Pune is the end-user.
Solution:
For the dealer in Mumbai (inter-state transaction)
CP = Rs. 20,000
IGST = 12% of Rs. 20,000 = \(\frac{12}{100}\) × 20,000 = Rs. 2400
Profit = Rs. 5000
SP = Rs. 25,000
For the dealer in Pune (intra-state transaction)
CP = Rs. 25,000
CGST = 6% of 25,000 = Rs. 1500
SGST = 6% of 25,000 = Rs. 1500
GST payable by the end user at Pune = 1500 + 1500= Rs. 3000

Question 4.
A is a dealer in Banaras (U.P.). he supplies goods/services worth Rs. 8000 to a dealer B in Agra (U.P.). Dealer B, in turn, supplies the same goods/services to dealer C in Patna (Bihar) at a profit of Rs. 1200. Find the input and output taxes for the dealer C under GST system; if the rate of GST is 18% and C does not sell his goods/services further.
Solution:
For the dealer A (intra-state transaction)
SP= Rs. 8,000

For the dealer B (intra-state transaction)
CP = Rs. 8,000
CGST = 9% of 8,000 = Rs. 720
SGST = 9% of 8,000 = Rs. 720
Profit = Rs. 1,200
SP = Rs. 9,200

For the dealer C (inter-state transaction)
CP = Rs. 9,200
IGST = 18 % of Rs. 9,200 = \(\frac{18}{100}\) × 9,200 = Rs. 1656
Input Tax = Rs. 1,656
Since, the dealer in Patna does not sell the product.
Output GST (tax on sale) = Rs. 0

Question 5.
A is a dealer in Meerut (U.P.). He supplies goods/services, worth Rs. 15,000 to a dealer B in Ratlam (M.P.). Dealer B, in turn, supplies the same goods/services to dealer C in Jabalpur (M.P.) at a profit of Rs. 3000. If rate of tax (under GST system) is 18%, find

  • The cost of goods/services to the dealer C in Jabalpur.
  • Net tax payable by dealer B.

Solution:
For A (case of inter-state transaction)
S.P. in Meerut = Rs. 15,000

For B (case of inter-state transaction)
C.P. = Rs. 15,000
IGST = 18% of 15,000 = \(\frac{18}{100}\) × 15,000 = Rs. 2700
Output tax for B = Rs. 2,700
C.P. in Ratlam = Rs. 2700 and profit = Rs. 3000
S.P. in Ratlam = 15,000 + 3000 = Rs. 18,000
Output tax for B =
For C (case of intra-state transaction)
C.P. = Rs. 18,000
CGST = 9% of 18,000 = \(\frac{9}{100}\) × 18,000 = Rs. 1620
SGST = \(\frac{9}{100}\) × 18,000 = Rs. 1620
Net GST payable by the dealer B
= Output tax – Input tax
= 1620 + 1620 – 2700
= Rs. 540
C.P. for the dealer C in Jabalpur
= S.P. for the dealer in Ratlam + GST
= 18,000 + 1620 + 1620
= Rs. 21,240

Question 6.
A dealer X in Hapur (U.P.) supplies goods/services, worth Rs. 50,000 to some other dealer Y in the same city. Now the dealer Y supplies the same goods/services to dealer Z in Calcutta at a profit of Rs. 20,000. Find

  • Output and input taxes for the dealer Y
  • Net GST payable by dealer Y.

The rate of GST at each stage is 28%
Solution:
For the dealer X (intra-state transaction)
SP= Rs. 50,000

For the dealer Y (intra-state transaction)
CP = Rs. 50,000
CGST = 14% of 50,000= Rs. 7,000
SGST = 14% of 50,000= Rs. 7,000
Input tax for dealer Y = Rs. 14,000
Profit = Rs. 20,000
SP = Rs. 70,000

For the dealer Z (inter-state transaction)
CP = Rs. 70,000
IGST = 28 % of Rs. 70,000 = \(\frac{28}{100}\) × 70,000 = Rs. 19,600
∴ Input Tax = Rs. 19,600 which is the output tax for dealer Y.

Net GST payable for Y
= Output tax for Y – Input tax for Y
= 19,600 – 14,000
= Rs. 5600

Question 7.
Consultancy services, worth Rs. 50,000, are transferred from Delhi to Calcutta at the rate of GST 18% and then from Calcutta toNainital (with profit = Rs. 20,000) at the same rate of GST. Find the output tax at

  • Delhi
  • Calcutta
  • Nainital

Solution:
Output tax in Delhi (interstate) :
IGST = 9% of 50,000 = Rs. 9000
Output tax in Delhi = Rs. 9000

Output tax in Calcutta :
C.P. in Calcutta = Rs. 50,000 and Profit
= Rs. 20,000
S.P. in Calcutta = 50,000 + 20,000
= Rs. 70,000
IGST = 18% of 70,000 = Rs. 12,600
Output tax in Calcutta = Rs. 12,600
Since, the dealer in Nainital does not sell the product.
Output GST (tax on sale) = Rs. 0

Question 8.
For a dealer A, the list price of an article is Rs. 9000, which he sells to dealer B at some lower price. Further, dealer B sells the same article to a customer at its list price. If the rate of GST is 18% and dealer B paid a tax, under GST, equal to Rs. 324 to the government, find the amount (inclusive of GST) paid by dealer B.
Solution:
Let A sells to dealer B at Rs. x lower price.
According to the question,
Net Tax paid by dealer B is
⇒ Out put tax – Input Tax = Rs. 324
⇒ 18% of 9000 – 18% of (9000 – x) = 324
⇒ 1620 – 1620 + 18% of x = 324
⇒ 18% of x = 324
⇒ x= 1800
Hence, selling price of B = 9000 – 1800 = Rs. 7200
The amount (inclusive of GST) paid by dealer B
= 7200 + 18% of 7200
= 7200 + 1296
= Rs. 8496

Question 9.
The marked price of an article is Rs. 6000. A wholesaler sells it to a dealer at 20% discount. The dealer further sells the article to a customer at a discount of 10% on the marked price. If the rate of GST at each stage is 18%, find the amount of tax (under GST) paid by the dealer to the government.
Solution:
Initial marked price by manufacturer A is Rs. 6000
B bought the T.V. at a discount of 20%.
Cost price of B = 80% of 6000 = Rs. 4800 ….(i)
GST paid by B for purchase = 18% of 4800 = Rs. 864 ….(ii)
B sells T.V. at discount of 10% of market Price
Selling price for B = 6000 – 10% of 6000 = Rs. 5400 …(iii)
GST charged by B on selling of T.V. = 18% of 5400 = Rs. 972 …(iv)
GST paid by B to the government
= GST charged on selling price – GST paid against purchase price
= 972 – 864
= Rs. 108

Question 10.
A is a manufacturer of T.V. sets in Delhi. He manufacturers a particular brand of T.V. set and marks it at Rs. 75,000. He then sells this T.V. set to a wholesaler B in Punjab at a discount of 30%. The wholesaler B raises the marked price of the T.V. set bought by 30% and then sells it to dealer C in Delhi. If the rate of GST = 5% find tax (under GST) paid by wholesaler B to the government.
Solution:
Initial marked price by manufacturer A is Rs. 75,000
B bought the T.V. at a discount of 30%.
Cost price of B = 70% of 75,000 = Rs. 52,500 ….(i)
GST paid by B for purchase = 5% of 52,500 = Rs. 2625 ….(ii)
B sells T.V. by increasing marked price by 30%.
Selling price for B = 75,000 + 30% of 75,000 = Rs. 97,500 …(iii)
GST charged by B on selling of T.V. = 5% of 97,500
= Rs. 4875 …(iv)
GST paid by B to the government
= GST charged on selling price – GST paid against purchase price
= 4875 – 2625
= Rs. 2250

Question 11.
For a trader, marked price of a refrigerator = Rs. 15,680 inclusive of GST at the rate of 12% on the marked price. Gagan, a customer for this refrigerator, asks the trader to reduce the marked price of the refrigerator to such extend that its reduced price plus GST on it is equal to marked price of the refrigerator. Find the required reduction.
Solution:
Let the marked price be Rs. x.
x + 12% of x = 15,680
1.12x = 15,680
x = Rs. 14,000
Initial marked price = Rs. 14,000
Let Gagan asked for priced reduction of Rs. y.
New price = 14,000 – y
GST on new price = 12% of (14,000 – y)
According to the question,
14,000 – y + 0.12(14,000 – y) = 14,000
-1.12y + 1680 = 0
y = 1500
Required reduction in price is Rs. 1500.

Find which of the following equations are quadratic:

Solution 1(i)
(3x – 1)2 = 5(x + 8)
⇒ (9x2 – 6x + 1) = 5x + 40
⇒ 9x2 – 11x – 39 =0; which is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
∴ Given equation is a quadratic equation.

Solution 1(ii)
5x2 – 8x = -3(7 – 2x)
⇒ 5x2 – 8x = 6x – 21
⇒ 5x2 – 14x + 21 =0; which is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
∴ Given equation is a quadratic equation.

Solution 1(iii)
(x – 4)(3x + 1) = (3x – 1)(x +2)
⇒ 3x2 + x – 12x – 4 = 3x2 + 6x – x – 2
⇒ 16x + 2 =0; which is not of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
∴ Given equation is not a quadratic equation.

Solution 1(iv)
x2 + 5x – 5 = (x – 3)2
⇒ x2 + 5x – 5 = x2 – 6x + 9
⇒ 11x – 14 =0; which is not of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
∴ Given equation is not a quadratic equation.

Solution 1(v)
7x3 – 2x2 + 10 = (2x – 5)2
⇒ 7x3 – 2x2 + 10 = 4x2 – 20x + 25
⇒ 7x3 – 6x2 + 20x – 15 = 0; which is not of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
∴ Given equation is not a quadratic equation.

Solution 1(vi)
(x – 1)2 + (x + 2)2 + 3(x +1) = 0
⇒ x2 – 2x + 1 + x2 + 4x + 4 + 3x + 3 = 0
⇒ 2x2 + 5x + 8 = 0; which is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.

For x = 5 to be solution of the given quadratic equation it should satisfy the equation.
So, substituting x = 5 in the given equation, we get
L.H.S = (5)2 – 2(5) – 15
= 25 – 10 – 15
= 0
= R.H.S
Hence, x = 5 is a solution of the quadratic equation x2 – 2x – 15 = 0.

Question 2(ii).
Is x = -3 a solution of the quadratic equation 2x2 – 7x + 9 = 0?
Solution:
2x2 – 7x + 9 = 0
For x = -3 to be solution of the given quadratic equation it should satisfy the equation
So, substituting x = 5 in the given equation, we get
L.H.S =2(-3)2 – 7(-3) + 9
= 18 + 21 + 9
= 48
≠ R.H.S
Hence, x = -3 is not a solution of the quadratic equation 2x2 – 7x + 9 = 0.

Quadratic Equations Exercise 5F – Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions

Solution 1(i)
Given: (x + 5)(x – 5)=24
⇒ x2 – 52 = 24   …. since (a – b)(a + b) = a2 – b2
⇒ x2 – 25 = 24
⇒ x2 = 49
⇒ x = ± 7

Solution 1(ii)
Given: 3x2 – 2\(\sqrt{6}\)x + 2 = 0
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 112
Solution 1(iii)
Given: 3\(\sqrt{2}\)x2 – 5x – \(\sqrt{26}\) = 0
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 113
Question 2.
One root of the quadratic equation 8x2 + mx + 15 is 3/4. Find the value of m. Also, find the other root of the equation.

Solution:
Given quadratic equation is  8x2 + mx + 15 = 0   …. (i)
One of the roots of (i) is \(\frac{3}{4}\), so it satisfies (i)
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 114
So, the equation (i) becomes 8x2 – 26x + 15 = 0
⇒ 8x2 – 20x – 6x + 15 = 0
⇒ 4x(2x – 5) -3(2x – 5) = 0
⇒ (4x – 3)(2x – 5) = 0
⇒ x = \(\frac{3}{4}\) or x = \(\frac{5}{2}\)
⇒ x = \(\frac{3}{4}, \frac{5}{2}\)
Hence, the other root is \(\frac{5}{2}\)

Question 3.
One root of the quadratic equation x2 – 3x – 2ax – 6a = 0 is -3, find its other root.

Solution:
Given quadratic equation is …. (i)
One of the roots of (i) is -3, so it satisfies (i)
⇒ x2 – 3x – 2ax – 6a = 0
⇒ x(x + 3) – 2a(x + 3) = 0
⇒ (x – 2a)(x + 3) = 0
⇒ x = -3, 2a
Hence, the other root is 2a.

Question 4.
If p – 15 = 0 and 2x2 + 15x + 15 = 0;find the values of x.

Solution:
Given i.e p – 15 = 0 i.e. p = 15
So, the given quadratic equation becomes
2x2 + 15x + 15 = 0
⇒ 2x + 10x + 5x + 15 = 0
⇒ 2x(x + 5) + 5(x + 5)
⇒ (2x + 5)(x + 5) = 0
⇒ x = -5, \(-\frac{5}{2}\)
Hence, the values of x are -5 and \(-\frac{5}{2}\)

Question 5.
Find the solution of the equation 2x2 -mx – 25n = 0; if m + 5 = 0 and n – 1 = 0.

Solution:
Given quadratic equation is 2x2 -mx – 25n = 0 ….. (i)
Also, given and m + 5 = 0 and n – 1 = 0
⇒ m = -5 and n = 1
So, the equation (i) becomes
2x2 + 5x + 25 = 0
⇒ 2x + 10x – 5x – 25 = 0
⇒ 2x(x + 5) -5(x + 5) = 0
⇒ (x + 5)(2x – 5) = 0
⇒ x = -5, \(\frac{5}{2}\)
Hence, the solution of given quadratic equation are x and \(\frac{5}{2}\)

Question 6.
If m and n are roots of the equation \(\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{x-2}=3\) where x ≠ 0 and x ≠ 2; find m × n.

Solution:
Given quadratic equation is \(\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{x-2}=3\)
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 115
Since, m and n are roots of the equation, we have
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 116

Question 7.
Solve, using formula :
x2 + x – (a + 2)(a + 1) = 0
Solution:
Given quadratic equation is x2 + x – (a + 2)(a + 1) = 0
Using quadratic formula,
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 117

Question 8.
Solve the quadratic equation 8x2 – 14x + 3 = 0
(i) When x ∈ I (integers)
(ii) When x ∈ Q (rational numbers)
Solution:
Given quadratic equation is 8x2 – 14x + 3 = 0
⇒ 8x2 – 12x – 2x + 3 = 0
⇒ 4x(2x – 3) – (2x – 3) = 0
⇒ (4x – 1)(2x – 3) = 0
⇒ x = \(\frac{3}{2}\) or x = \(\frac{1}{4}\)
(i) When x ϵ I, the equation 8x2 – 14x + 3 = 0 has no roots
(ii) When x ϵ Q the roots of 8x2 – 14x + 3 = 0 are
x = \(\frac{3}{2}\) x = \(\frac{1}{4}\)

Question 9.
Find the value of m for which the equation (m + 4 )2 + (m + 1)x + 1 = 0 has real and equal roots.
Solution:
Given quadratic equation is (m + 4 )2 + (m + 1)x + 1 = 0
The quadratic equation has real and equal roots if its discriminant is zero.
⇒ D = b2 – 4ac = 0
⇒ (m + 1)2 -4(m + 4)(1) = 0
⇒ m2 + 2m + 1 – 4m – 16 = 0
⇒ m2 – 2m – 15 = 0
⇒ m2 – 5m + 3m – 15 = 0
⇒ m(m – 5) +3(m =5) = 0
⇒ (m – 5)(m + 3) = 0
⇒ m = 5 or m = -3

Question 10.
Find the values of m for which equation 3x2 + mx + 2 = 0 has equal roots. Also, find the roots of the given equation.
Solution:
Given quadratic equation is 3x2 + mx + 2 = 0 …. (i)
The quadratic equation has equal roots if its discriminant is zero
⇒ D = b2 – 4ac = 0
⇒ m2 – 4(2)(3) = 0
⇒ m2 = 24
⇒ m = \(\pm 2 \sqrt{6}\)
When m = \(2 \sqrt{6}\), equation (i) becomes
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 118
When m = \(-2 \sqrt{6}\), equation (i) becomes
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 119
∴ x= \(-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{3}, \frac{\sqrt{6}}{3}\)

Question 11.
Find the value of k for which equation 4x2 + 8x – k = 0 has real roots.

Solution:
Given quadratic equation is 4x2 + 8x – k = 0 …. (i)
The quadratic equation has real roots if its discriminant is greater than or equal to zero
⇒ D = b2 – 4ac ≥ 0
⇒ 82 – 4(4)(-k) ≥ 0
⇒ 64 + 16k ≥ 0
⇒ 16k ≥ -64
⇒ k ≥ -4
Hence, the given quadratic equation has real roots for k ≥ -4

Question 12.
Find, using quadratic formula, the roots of the following quadratic equations, if they exist
(i) 3x2 – 5x + 2 = 0
(ii) x2 + 4x + 5 = 0
Solution:
(i) Given quadratic equation is 3x2 – 5x + 2 = 0
D = b2 – 4ac = (-5)2 – 4(3)(2) = 25 – 24 = 1
Since D > 0, the roots of the given quadratic equation are real and distinct.
Using quadratic formula, we have
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 120
⇒ x = 1 or x = \(\frac{2}{3}\)

(ii) Given quadratic equation is x2 + 4x + 5 = 0
D = b2 – 4ac = (4)2 – 4(1)(5) = 16 – 20 = – 4
Since D < 0, the roots of the given quadratic equation does not exist.

Solution 13:
(i) Given quadratic equation is \(\frac{1}{18-x}-\frac{1}{18+x}=\frac{1}{24}\)
Selina Concise Mathematics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Quadratic Equations - 121
⇒ 48x = 324 – x2
⇒ x2 + 48x – 324 = 0
⇒ x2 + 54x – 6x – 324 = 0
⇒ x(x + 54) -6(x + 54) = 0
⇒ (x + 54)(x – 6) = 0
⇒ x = -54 or x = 6
But as x > 0, so x can’t be negative.
Hence, x = 6.
(ii) Given quadratic equation is \((x-10)\left(\frac{1200}{x}+2\right)=1260\)
⇒ (x – 10)\(\left(\frac{1200+2 x}{x}\right)\) = 1260
⇒ (x – 10)(1200 + 2x) = 1260x
⇒ 1200x + 2x2 – 12000 – 20x = 1260x
⇒ 2x2 – 12000 – 80x = 0
⇒ x2 – 40x – 6000 = 0
⇒ x2 – 100x + 60x – 6000 = 0
⇒ (x – 100)(x – 60) = 0
⇒ x = 100 or x = -60
But as x < 0, so x can’t be positive.
Hence, x = -60.

ICSE 2019 Physics Question Paper Solved for Class 10 - 19
(ii) A is connected to the live wire and B to neutral wire.

(c) (i) RS = 5 + 0.5 = 5.5 Ω
(ii) I=\(\frac { V }{ R }\)=\(\frac { 3.3 }{ 5.5 }\)= 0.6A
5×5
(iii) RP = \(\frac{5 \times 5}{5+5}\) == 2.5 Ω, thus total resistance is RT = 2.5 +0.5 = 3.0

I= \(\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{T}}}\) = \(\frac { 3.3 }{ 3.0 }\)
= 1.1 A

Question 9.
(a) (i) Define Calorimetry.
(ii) Name the material used for making a Calorimeter.
(iii) Why is a Calorimeter made-up of thin sheets of the above material answered in (ii) ? [3]
(b) The melting point of naphthalene is 80°C and the room temperature is 30°C. A sample of
liquid naphthalene at 100°C is cooled down to the room temperature. Draw a temperature¬time graph to represent this cooling. In the graph, mark the region which corresponds to the freezing process. [3]
(c) 104 g of water at 30°C is taken in a calorimeter made of copper of mass 42 g. When a certain mass of ice at 0°C is added to it, the final steady temperature of the mixture after the ice has melted, was found to be 10°C. Find the mass of ice added.
[Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J g-1 °C-1  : Specific latent heat of fusion of ice – 336 J g-1 ; Specific heat capacity of copper = 0.4 J g-1 °C-1 ] [4]
Answers :
(a) (i) Calorimetry is the measurement of heat,
(ii) Copper.
(iii) Copper has small specific heat capacity. The thin sheets ensure that the box has small heat capacity.

(b) The graph is as shown :
ICSE 2019 Physics Question Paper Solved for Class 10 - 20

(c) Mass of water m1 = 104 g
Temperature of water T1 = 30°C
Final temperature T2 = 10°C
Mass of calorimeter m2 = 42 g
Temperature of ice T3= 0°C
Let the mass of ice added be = x g
Total heat energy lost = (104 × 4.2 × 20)+(42 × 0.4 × 20) = 8736 + 336 = 9072 J
Total heat energy gained = (336 × x)+(x × 4.2 × 10) = 336x + 42x = 378x
By principle of calorimetry,
Heat lost = Heat gained
378x =9072
x = \(\frac { 9072 }{ 378 }\) = 24g

Question 10.
(a) Draw a neat labelled diagram of an AC generator.
(b) (i) Define nuclear fission.
(ii) Rewrite and complete the following nuclear reaction by filling in the atomic number of Ba and mass number of Kr : [3]
