Assignment Topic RATIONAL NUMBERS Definition A number of the form 119901119901

119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational

number Eg 14 minus3

5 5

7 etc

Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901

119902119902 is said to be

positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative

Eg 34 minus8

minus5 etc

A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is

positive and q is negative or vice-versa

Eg minus34

4minus7

etc

Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be in standard

form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36

minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)

(minus42) 119883119883 (minus1) = minus36 divide 6

42 divide 6 = minus6

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Rational Number Additive Inverse 6

7 - 6

minus38

38

(7) Reciprocal or Multiplicative Inverse A rational number 119888119888119889119889

is said to be

multiplicative inverse or reciprocal of another rational number 119886119886119887119887

if 119886119886119887119887

X 119888119888119889119889

= 1 Eg

Rational Number Multiplicative Inverse 5

11 11

5

minus37

minus73

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals

c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative

(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

Assignment

1 Verify commutative property of addition and multiplication of rational numbers if a = minus11

5and b = 4

7

2 Verify associative property of addition of rational number ie (a + b) + c = (a + b) + c when a = 1

2 b = 2

3 and c = minus1

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

1 There was a cricketHe used to sing all through the pleasant months of

Summer and spring When winter arrived he found that there was no food at

home 2 He did not bother to store food for the rainy season and cold winter

3 He went to an ant to get shelter and food He promised to return it He

added that if the ant did not do what he wanted he would die 4 The ant replied that as a matter of principle the ants neither borrow nor

lend She asked why he never bothered to lay by something for the rainy

day 5 The cricket admitted that he had been careless and foolish

6 He enjoyed the beauties of Summer and sang merrily

7 The ant adviced him to pass away the Winter by dancing Saying so the ant

turned the cricket out of the house 8 The poet ends his story with the moral He says that this is not a fable but

truth He goes on to add that some human beings are like the cricket Answer the following questions

1 Why does the poet call the cricket silly

2 Why didnt the cricket have anything to eat

3 Who was starvingthe ant or the cricket

4 What did the ant tell the cricket

5 Write the central idea of the poem the ant and the cricket

How the Camel Got His Hump Rudyard Kipling 1 The World had just begun The animals had started working for humansThe Horse the

Dog and the Ox pulled loads and served manBut there was only one animal camel that refused to work It lived in the desert and ate thorny plants When anybody spoke to him he said Humph

2 One Monday morning the horse came to the camel He told the desert animal (camel) to

work like them The dog and the ox also told the same But they could not succeed 3 The three complained Man against the camel But man grew angry and asked them to work

double to compensate camels work 4 The animals were unhappy They held a panchayat The camel laughed at them and went

away 5 The Djinn or the spirit incharge of deserts came thereHe listened to their complaint and

agreed with them He decided to punish such an idle animal 6 The Djinn found the camel looking at his own reflection in the pool of water 7 The Djinn had made the three other animals do extra work since Monday morning

8 When the Djinn asked him to clarify camel only said Humph He showed no willingness to

work 9 The Djinn Cursed him with a burden on its back as it had refused to work

10 Soon the Camels back puffed up into a big hump The Camel was told to

work for three days without eating anything because his food was stored in his hump

11 The hump on his back made it difficult for him to carry the load The Djinn said

that it would ser ve as a storehouse of food He also said that it would disappear when the camel would learn to behave properly

12 The camel went away to join the three From that day he has been wearing

a hump

Moral of the story is that nothing is achieved by sitting idle and wasting time One who is lazy and does not fulfill his responsibility suffers in the end

7 etc

Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901

119902119902 is said to be

positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative

Eg 34 minus8

minus5 etc

A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is

positive and q is negative or vice-versa

Eg minus34

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals

c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative

(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

Assignment

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Assignment

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600

= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400

= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200

2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium

4 Parallelogram A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram Properties of a parallelogram In a parallelogram

a) Opposite sides are equal b) Opposite angles are equal c) Diagonals bisect each other d) Adjacent angles are supplementary

Assignment

1 How many diagonals does each of the following have (a) A convex quadrilateral (b) A regular hexagon (c) A triangle

2 Find the angle sum of a convex polygon with number of sides (a) 7 (b) 8 (c) 10

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

PRACTICE QUESTIONS

1 Pick out the odd one from the following words given in the box and give reason for it Plough seed Drill Hoe chain Pump Sickle

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

7 etc

Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901

119902119902 is said to be

positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative

Eg 34 minus8

minus5 etc

A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is

positive and q is negative or vice-versa

Eg minus34

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals

c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative

(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600

= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400

= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200

2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium

4 Parallelogram A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram Properties of a parallelogram In a parallelogram

a) Opposite sides are equal b) Opposite angles are equal c) Diagonals bisect each other d) Adjacent angles are supplementary

Assignment

1 How many diagonals does each of the following have (a) A convex quadrilateral (b) A regular hexagon (c) A triangle

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

components 3 Write down the advantages of networking Define

Network Interface Unit4 What do you mean by server

MEDIA OF COMMUNICTION

bull Guided Transmission of data takes place through a

physical wired medium eg Ethernet cable Co-Axial

cable Optical fiber cable

bull Unguided Transmission of data takes place through

wireless medium eg Radio-wave Microwave

Infrared

TYPES OF GUIDED MEDIA

bull Ethernet Cable- It is a data link technology used in localarea network Such cables enables transmission speedsof 100-1000 mbps Ethernet cable can be categorizedinto -Straight Through Ethernet Cable ndash It is used to connectthe computer to a hub switch or to router There aretwo standards in which the colours of such cables arestraight ie T-568A and T-568B

bull Ethernet Crossover Cable ndash It is used to connectcomputing devices without connecting to hub or switchSuch cables have different pin points or plugs on eachside

bull Co-axial Cable ndash It acts as an efficient electricaltransmission media It consists of a single line ofconductor surrounded by an insulation layer and aconductive shield over it

bull Fiber optics ndash It has more capacity and provides highspeed of data transfer Here data is transferred throughlight waves

TYPES OF UNGUIDED MEDIA

bull Bluetooth ndash It is a wireless network connectivity thatenables to connect or transfer data between deviceswithin a short range like between mobile phoneslaptops personal computers printers etc Theconnectivity through bluetooth consumes less powerand the physical range of communication is upto 100meters Bluetooth communication is applied at manyplaces like for bar code scanning hands free headsetwireless connection of a PC with input and outputdevices

bull WindashFi ndash Wireless Fidelity is a network of wirelessconnection Wi-Fi connections are commonlyestablished in electronic gadgets including videogame console home networks PDAs tablets mobilephones etc To form a wireless computer network aWi-Fi adaptor is required on computer or terminaldevice

bull Infrared ndash computers or other devices can transferfiles or digital data to each other with the help ofinfrared connectivity within a short distance Thetransmission of data takes place through infraredadapters that are installed in handheld personaldevices or mobiles

2 What is Ethernet cable3 Define Bluetooth4 Explain different types of unguided media5 What is the use of Wi-Fi6 Compare Co-axial cable with Wi-Fi7 Mention one area each where Ethernet Coaxial

cable and Wi-Fi are used

TYPES OF NETWORK

1 LAN (Local Area Network) It is a type of network in which computers are connected in a local unit or within a small geographical area such as offices departments of a manufacturing unit etc

Characteristics of LANa) In LAN data communication takes place at a rate of

100-1000 mbpsb) It is owned by an individual or an organizationc) There is no specific tariff for its usage

2 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) MAN is a type of network in which the computers are connected over large geographical area such as a city and its suburbs It may be a single network or may be a network that connects several LANs

Characteristics of MAN a) It covers larger area than LAN but smaller

geographical area than WANb) It is surrounded within a single city or its suburbsc) It is mainly owned by large organizations to

interconnect all its branches across a city

3 WAN (Wide Area Network) It is a type of networkin which computers are connected over largegeographical area such as cities states countries oreven the whole world The common example of WANis Internet

Characteristics of WAN-a) The speed of data transfer is upto 150 mbpsb) It connects large geographical area at lesser costc) In WAN two or more network are connected

through Gateway that establishes connectivitybetween the protocols used in one network with theother network

4 PAN (Personal Area Network) It is a computernetwork that is used by an individual or is limitedwithin a range of 10 meters It is an interconnectionof several peripherals devices such as laptops smartphone printer etc Bluetooth Infrared are commonexamples of PAN

5 CAN ( Controller Area Network) It is an ISOcertified method of communication between variouselectronic devices used for lighting control airconditioning airbags central locking embedded in avehicle etc

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

Here Zn gt Cu hence displaces copper from CuSO4 and form ZnSO4 and Cu

b) FeSO4 + Cu rarr No displacement reaction

In this example Cu lt Fe hence copper does not displace iron USES OF METALS AND NON- METALS Uses of some metals-

a Iron Copper and aluminium are used to make cooking utensils and water boilers

b Copper is used for making electric wires

c Aluminium foils are used for packaging medicines chocolates etc Aluminium is also used to make aeroplanes

d Zinc metal is used for galvanizing iron to protect it from rusting

e Silver gold are used to make jewellery

Uses of non- metals- Some of the important uses are as follows-

a Oxygen is used for breathing by plants animals and human beings

b Nitrogen is used for making fertilizers

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

5 5

7 etc

Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901

119902119902 is said to be

positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative

Eg 34 minus8

minus5 etc

A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is

positive and q is negative or vice-versa

Eg minus34

4minus7

etc

Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be in standard

form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36

minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)

(minus42) 119883119883 (minus1) = minus36 divide 6

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

minus73

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals

c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative

(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Assignment

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

7 etc

Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901

119902119902 is said to be

positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative

Eg 34 minus8

minus5 etc

A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is

positive and q is negative or vice-versa

Eg minus34

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals

c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative

(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Assignment

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600

= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400

= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200

2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals

c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative

(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Assignment

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600

= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400

= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200

2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

Here Zn gt Cu hence displaces copper from CuSO4 and form ZnSO4 and Cu

b) FeSO4 + Cu rarr No displacement reaction

Preservation ndashthe process in which food material are given suitable physical and chemical treatment to prevent spoilage of food The chemical used for preserration is called preservatives They checks the growth of microorganism

Methods of food preserrationndash

(i) Sodium benzoate amp sodium metabisulphite are used as common preserratives (ii) Common salt is usually used to preserve meat and fish (iii) Sugar reduces the moisture contents which prevents the growth of bacteria

therefore jams jellies ampsquarshes are preserved by sugar (iv) Use of oil amp vinegar prevents the spoilage of pickles (v) Milk is hearted or boiled for 15 to 30 seconds and then cooled This process is

called pasteurization (discovered by Louis Pasteur)

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals

c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative

(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600

= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400

= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200

2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium

4 Parallelogram A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram Properties of a parallelogram In a parallelogram

a) Opposite sides are equal b) Opposite angles are equal c) Diagonals bisect each other d) Adjacent angles are supplementary

Synthetic fibres and plastics) Fibre

The cloths which we wear are made up of fabrics Fabrics are made from fibres obtained from natural or artificial fibres Fibres are also used for making a large variety of household articles

Polymer A polymer is a substance composed of many repeated similar sub units The simplest molecule from which the repeating units are obtained is called monomer and the process of formation of a polymer from monomer is termed as polymerisation Synthetic Fibre Synthetic Fibres are those which are made by man in the laboratories These are called man made or artificial fibres Eg- Rayon Nylon and Polyester Natural Fibre The naturally occurring fibres that human derive from plants or animals are known as natural fibres Eg- Cotton Wool Silk etc Classification of synthetic fibre

Synthetic Fibre 1 Rayon Artificial Silk 2 Nylon 3 Polyester 4 Acrylic 1 Rayon Artificial Silk It is the first man made Fibre It is obtained from chemical treatment of wood pulp The process of making it in Europe is known as Viscose Process Rayon is mixed with cotton to make bed sheets or mixed with wool to make carpets 2 Nylon Nylon (word comes from ldquoNyrdquo=New York and ldquolonrdquo=London) was the first fully synthetic fibre prepared from coal water and air Fibre is strong elastic light lustrous and easy to wash It is used on a large scale in the preparation of carpets textile fibres bristles for brushes track suits rope etc

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

PROTOCOL

A protocol is a convention or standard that regulates the

operation of devices It can be defined as the set of rules

governing the syntax semantics and synchronization of

communication between hardware software or both

TYPES OF PROTOCOL

bull Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) ndash It is aprotocol that is used to display information on theWorld Wide Web Its main purpose is to provide away to display and retrieve HTML pages It is arequest protocol between clients and server

bull File Transfer Protocol (FTP) ndash It is a clientserverprotocol that helps in transferring or exchanging filesbetween client and server It may be authenticatedwith user name and password

bull Transmission Control ProtocolInternet Protocol(TCPIP) ndash It is a rule governing communication among all the computers on internet

bull Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) ndash It is a standard email protocol that stores email messages on a mail server and allows a user to view and manipulate the message as if they were stored locally on the users computing device

bull Simple Mail Transfer Protocol(SMTP) ndash It is a TCPIP protocol that is used in sending and receiving e-mail

CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cloud computing is a concept that enables sharingof computing resources rather than having localservers or personal devices to handle applicationWhenever someone uses an online service to sendemail edit documents watch movies or TV listento music play games or store pictures and otherfiles it is likely that cloud computing is making itall possible behind the scene

ADVANTAGES OF CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cost ndash Cloud computing eliminates the capitalexpense of buying hardware and software and settingup and running on-site data centers set up cost ofservers round the clock electricity for power backupthe IT experts for managing the infrastructure

bull Productivity ndash On-site data centers typically require alot of hardware set up software requirements andother time-consuming IT management tasks Cloudcomputing removes the need of many such tasks sothat the IT teams can spend time on achieving moreimportant business goals

bull Performance ndash The bigger cloud computing servicesrun on a worldwide network of secure data centerswhich are regularly upgraded to the latest generationof fast and efficient computing hardware

bull Reliability ndash Cloud computing helps in regular databackup and has provided for facilities for datarecovery as data gets mirrored at multiple redundantsites on the cloud providers network

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600

= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400

= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200

2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium

4 Parallelogram A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram Properties of a parallelogram In a parallelogram

a) Opposite sides are equal b) Opposite angles are equal c) Diagonals bisect each other d) Adjacent angles are supplementary

PHYSICS

Ch11 Force And Pressure

FORCE

A push or pull acting on an object is called force

An interaction of one object with another object results in a force between the two objects

Force has magnitude as well as direction It is vector quantity

The SI unit of force is newton(N)

EFFECTS OF FORCE ON AN OBJECT

1 A force can move a stationary object 2 A force can stop a moving object 3 A force can change the speed of a moving object 4 A force can change the direction of a moving object 5 A force can change the shape and size of an object

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals

c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative

(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Topic Understanding Quadrilaterals

Simple curve A curve which do not intersects (retrace) itself is called a simple curve

Simple Closed Curve A simple curve which ends at the same point from where it starts is called a simple closed curve Eg Circle

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600

= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400

= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200

2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

Assignment Topic RATIONAL NUMBERS Definition A number of the form 119901119901

119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational

number Eg 14 minus3

5 5

7 etc

Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901

119902119902 is said to be

positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative

Eg 34 minus8

minus5 etc

A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is

positive and q is negative or vice-versa

Eg minus34

4minus7

etc

Standard form of a rational number A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be in standard

form if i) q is not a negative integer and ii) p and q has no common factor other than 1 Eg Standard form of 36

minus42 is written as 36 119883119883 (minus1)

(minus42) 119883119883 (minus1) = minus36 divide 6

42 divide 6 = minus6

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

(7) Reciprocal or Multiplicative Inverse A rational number 119888119888119889119889

is said to be

multiplicative inverse or reciprocal of another rational number 119886119886119887119887

if 119886119886119887119887

X 119888119888119889119889

= 1 Eg

minus73

Note a) Rational Number 0 has no reciprocal b) The numbers 1 and -1 are their own reciprocals

c) Reciprocal of a positive rational number is positive and that of negative rational number is negative

(8) Distributive Property Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition and Subtraction For all rational numbers a b and c (i) a (b + c) = ab + ac (ii) a (b ndash c) = ab ndash ac

Assignment

1 Verify commutative property of addition and multiplication of rational numbers if a = minus11

5and b = 4

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

119902119902 where p and q are integers q ne 0 is a rational

number Eg 14 minus3

5 5

7 etc

Note All natural numbers whole numbers integers fractions are rational numbers Positive and Negative Rational Numbers A rational number 119901119901

119902119902 is said to be

positive if both p and q are of same sign ie p and q are either both positive or both negative

Eg 34 minus8

minus5 etc

A rational number 119901119901119902119902

is said to be negative if p and q are of opposite signs ie if p is

positive and q is negative or vice-versa

Eg minus34

Properties of Rational Numbers (1) Closure Property For any two rational numbers a and b

(i) a + b = a rational number (ii) a ndash b = a rational number (iii) a x b = a rational number (iv) a divide b ne a rational number Therefore Rational number is closed for addition subtraction multiplication but not for division as because division by 0 (zero) is not defined

(2) Commutative Property For any two rational numbers a and b (i) a + b = a + b (ii) a ndash b ne b - a (iii) a x b = b x a (iv) a divide b ne b divide a Therefore Commutative property holds good for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division for rational numbers

(3) Associative Property For any three rational numbers a b and c (i) a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c (ii) a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c But (iii) a - (b - c) ne (a - b) - c (iv) a divide (b divide c) ne (a divide b) divide c Therefore addition and multiplication are associative for rational numbers but for subtraction and division are not associative for rational numbers

(4) Existence of Additive Identity Zero is called the identity element for the addition of rational numbers because for any rational number a a + 0 = 0 + a = a

(5) Existence of Multiplicative Identity 1 is called the identity element for the multiplication of rational numbers because for any rational number a a x 1 = 1 x a =a

(6) Additive Inverse For any rational number a a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0 Therefore a and (-a) are called additive inverse or negative of each other Eg

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

- It occurs due to contaminated food - Microorganism that grows on food product sometimes produces toxic substances - Serious illness or even death may cause due to food poisoning - Generally caused by bacteria and fungi

Symptoms of food poisoning

(i) Diarrhoea (ii) Fever (iii) Headache (iv) Vomiting (v) Pain in abdomen

Vaccine ndash it is a dead or weakened form of microbes which stimulates the production of antibodies and provide immunity against several diseases

Antibiotic

It is a medicine which inhibits the growth of microorganisms

EgPenicillin

Plant Disease Causative Microorganism Mode of transmission Citrus Canker Bacteria Air Rust of Wheat Fungi Air Seed Yellow Vein mosaie of Bhindi

Virus Insects

Preservation ndashthe process in which food material are given suitable physical and chemical treatment to prevent spoilage of food The chemical used for preserration is called preservatives They checks the growth of microorganism

Methods of food preserrationndash

(i) Sodium benzoate amp sodium metabisulphite are used as common preserratives (ii) Common salt is usually used to preserve meat and fish (iii) Sugar reduces the moisture contents which prevents the growth of bacteria

therefore jams jellies ampsquarshes are preserved by sugar (iv) Use of oil amp vinegar prevents the spoilage of pickles (v) Milk is hearted or boiled for 15 to 30 seconds and then cooled This process is

called pasteurization (discovered by Louis Pasteur)

Pasteurization prevents the growth of microbes

(vi) Sundrying prevents the growth of microorganism due to absence of moisture in foog item

(vii) Refrigeration or Cooling ndash microorganisms do not grow at low temperature

Nitrogen Cycle

It is a biogeochemical process through which nitrogen is converted into many forms passing from the atmosphere to the soil to the atmosphere and back into the atmosphere It involves following process-

(a) Nitrogen fixation ndash Atmospheric nitrogen gas is converted into nitrogen compound

Types of nitrogen fixation

(i) Atmospheric fixation (ii) Industrial nitrogen fixation (iii) Biological nitrogen fixation (b) Nitrification ndash conversion of ammonia (NH3) into nitrate (c) Nitrogen Assimilation - Nitrogen compounds are converted into NH3 (d) Denitrification ndash Nitrogen compounds are converted into free nitrogen

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

EgPenicillin

Plant Disease Causative Microorganism Mode of transmission Citrus Canker Bacteria Air Rust of Wheat Fungi Air Seed Yellow Vein mosaie of Bhindi

Virus Insects

Preservation ndashthe process in which food material are given suitable physical and chemical treatment to prevent spoilage of food The chemical used for preserration is called preservatives They checks the growth of microorganism

Methods of food preserrationndash

(i) Sodium benzoate amp sodium metabisulphite are used as common preserratives (ii) Common salt is usually used to preserve meat and fish (iii) Sugar reduces the moisture contents which prevents the growth of bacteria

therefore jams jellies ampsquarshes are preserved by sugar (iv) Use of oil amp vinegar prevents the spoilage of pickles (v) Milk is hearted or boiled for 15 to 30 seconds and then cooled This process is

called pasteurization (discovered by Louis Pasteur)

Pasteurization prevents the growth of microbes

(vi) Sundrying prevents the growth of microorganism due to absence of moisture in foog item

(vii) Refrigeration or Cooling ndash microorganisms do not grow at low temperature

Nitrogen Cycle

It is a biogeochemical process through which nitrogen is converted into many forms passing from the atmosphere to the soil to the atmosphere and back into the atmosphere It involves following process-

(a) Nitrogen fixation ndash Atmospheric nitrogen gas is converted into nitrogen compound

Types of nitrogen fixation

(i) Atmospheric fixation (ii) Industrial nitrogen fixation (iii) Biological nitrogen fixation (b) Nitrification ndash conversion of ammonia (NH3) into nitrate (c) Nitrogen Assimilation - Nitrogen compounds are converted into NH3 (d) Denitrification ndash Nitrogen compounds are converted into free nitrogen

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

TOPIC LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

To solve a linear equation in one variable the simple tips is to separate variable and constants on either sides of the equation

Earlier we use hit and trial method to solve a linear equation but now we will use the method of transposition to solve a linear equation

In this method a term of the linear equation is transferred from LHS to RHS or vice versa In this case the sign of the term changes from (+) to (-) (-) to (+) multiplication changes to division and division changes to multiplication

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

JVM SHYAMALI Page 5

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

Polygons A simple closed curve made up of line-segments only is called a polygon The simplest polygon is triangle

CLASSIFICATION OF POLYGONS

We classify polygons according to the number of sides (or vertices) they have

Number of sides or vertices Classification 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Heptagon 8 Octagon 9 Nonagon 10 Decagon n n-gon

Diagonals of a polygon The line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon is called its one diagonal

Convex and Concave Polygon A polygon is said to be convex polygon if

(i) Its all angles are less than 1800 (ii) Its all diagonals lies completely in its interior

Otherwise the polygon is said to be a concave polygon

Regular and Irregular Polygon A polygon is said to be regular polygon if

(iii) Its all angles are equal (iv) Its all sides are equal

Otherwise the polygon is said to be irregular Example Equilateral Triangle Square are regular polygons

Interior Angle Sum Property of a Polygon The sum of all interior angles of a polygon of n sides is (n ndash 2) X 1800

Exterior Angle sum property of a polygon The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon of any number of sides is 3600

An exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides = 360⁰119899119899

Different kinds of quadrilaterals

1 Kite A kite is a quadrilateral in which exactly two distinct consecutive pairs of sides of equal length

Polygon Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon No of Sides 3 4 5 6 Angle Sum = (3 ndash 2) times 180deg

= 180deg = (4 ndash 2) times 180deg = 2 x 180deg = 3600

= (5 ndash 2) times 180deg = 3 x 180deg = 5400

= (6 ndash 2) times 180deg = 4 x 180deg = 7200

2 Trapezium A quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel is called a trapezium

3 Isosceles Trapezium A trapezium whose non-parallel sides are of equal length is called an isosceles trapezium

4 Parallelogram A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram Properties of a parallelogram In a parallelogram

a) Opposite sides are equal b) Opposite angles are equal c) Diagonals bisect each other d) Adjacent angles are supplementary

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

PRACTICE QUESTIONS

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

MEDIA OF COMMUNICTION

bull Guided Transmission of data takes place through a

physical wired medium eg Ethernet cable Co-Axial

cable Optical fiber cable

bull Unguided Transmission of data takes place through

wireless medium eg Radio-wave Microwave

Infrared

TYPES OF GUIDED MEDIA

bull Ethernet Cable- It is a data link technology used in localarea network Such cables enables transmission speedsof 100-1000 mbps Ethernet cable can be categorizedinto -Straight Through Ethernet Cable ndash It is used to connectthe computer to a hub switch or to router There aretwo standards in which the colours of such cables arestraight ie T-568A and T-568B

bull Ethernet Crossover Cable ndash It is used to connectcomputing devices without connecting to hub or switchSuch cables have different pin points or plugs on eachside

bull Co-axial Cable ndash It acts as an efficient electricaltransmission media It consists of a single line ofconductor surrounded by an insulation layer and aconductive shield over it

bull Fiber optics ndash It has more capacity and provides highspeed of data transfer Here data is transferred throughlight waves

TYPES OF UNGUIDED MEDIA

bull Bluetooth ndash It is a wireless network connectivity thatenables to connect or transfer data between deviceswithin a short range like between mobile phoneslaptops personal computers printers etc Theconnectivity through bluetooth consumes less powerand the physical range of communication is upto 100meters Bluetooth communication is applied at manyplaces like for bar code scanning hands free headsetwireless connection of a PC with input and outputdevices

bull WindashFi ndash Wireless Fidelity is a network of wirelessconnection Wi-Fi connections are commonlyestablished in electronic gadgets including videogame console home networks PDAs tablets mobilephones etc To form a wireless computer network aWi-Fi adaptor is required on computer or terminaldevice

bull Infrared ndash computers or other devices can transferfiles or digital data to each other with the help ofinfrared connectivity within a short distance Thetransmission of data takes place through infraredadapters that are installed in handheld personaldevices or mobiles

100-1000 mbpsb) It is owned by an individual or an organizationc) There is no specific tariff for its usage

2 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) MAN is a type of network in which the computers are connected over large geographical area such as a city and its suburbs It may be a single network or may be a network that connects several LANs

Characteristics of MAN a) It covers larger area than LAN but smaller

geographical area than WANb) It is surrounded within a single city or its suburbsc) It is mainly owned by large organizations to

interconnect all its branches across a city

3 WAN (Wide Area Network) It is a type of networkin which computers are connected over largegeographical area such as cities states countries oreven the whole world The common example of WANis Internet

Characteristics of WAN-a) The speed of data transfer is upto 150 mbpsb) It connects large geographical area at lesser costc) In WAN two or more network are connected

through Gateway that establishes connectivitybetween the protocols used in one network with theother network

4 PAN (Personal Area Network) It is a computernetwork that is used by an individual or is limitedwithin a range of 10 meters It is an interconnectionof several peripherals devices such as laptops smartphone printer etc Bluetooth Infrared are commonexamples of PAN

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

JVM SHYAMALI Page 5

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

JVM SHYAMALI Page 7

Here Zn gt Cu hence displaces copper from CuSO4 and form ZnSO4 and Cu

b) FeSO4 + Cu rarr No displacement reaction

In this example Cu lt Fe hence copper does not displace iron USES OF METALS AND NON- METALS Uses of some metals-

a Iron Copper and aluminium are used to make cooking utensils and water boilers

b Copper is used for making electric wires

c Aluminium foils are used for packaging medicines chocolates etc Aluminium is also used to make aeroplanes

d Zinc metal is used for galvanizing iron to protect it from rusting

e Silver gold are used to make jewellery

Uses of non- metals- Some of the important uses are as follows-

a Oxygen is used for breathing by plants animals and human beings

b Nitrogen is used for making fertilizers

c Chlorine is used in the water purification process

d Iodine is used to make purple- coloured solution called lsquotincture iodinersquo which is used as an antiseptic

e Sulphur and phosphorus are used in fireworks (crackers)

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

PRACTICE QUESTIONS

1 Pick out the odd one from the following words given in the box and give reason for it Plough seed Drill Hoe chain Pump Sickle

2 If you are given a dry piece of land for cultivation what will you do before sowing the seeds

3 State whether the following statements are True or False Correct the false statements (i) Using good quality seed is the only criterion to get high yield (ii) Growing different crops in different seasons in the same field will deplete the soil of nutrients (iii) All crop plants are sown as seeds in the field (iv) Cells of root nodules of leguminous plants fix nitrogen (v) Freshly harvested grains must be dried before storing

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

FORCE

A push or pull acting on an object is called force

An interaction of one object with another object results in a force between the two objects

Force has magnitude as well as direction It is vector quantity

The SI unit of force is newton(N)

EFFECTS OF FORCE ON AN OBJECT

1 A force can move a stationary object 2 A force can stop a moving object 3 A force can change the speed of a moving object 4 A force can change the direction of a moving object 5 A force can change the shape and size of an object

Note A change in either the speed of an object or is direction of motion or both is known as a change in its state of motion RESULTANT FORCE CASE1 when two or more forces act on an object in same direction then their resultant is equal to the sum of their magnitude The direction of the resultant remains the same CASE 2 When two forces act on object in opposite direction then their resultant is equal to the difference of their magnitude The direction of resultant is along the force of larger magnitude CONTACT AND NON-CONTACT FORCES CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is in contact with the object the applied force is called contact force eg- muscular forcefrictional force etc NON ndash CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is not in contact with the object the applied force is called non- contact force eg- magnetic force electrostatic force gravitational force etc PRESSURE Force acting per unit area is called pressure ie Pressure= ForceArea The SI unit of pressure is pascal(Pa) Note Pressure is directly proportional to the applied force and inversely proportional to the suface area PRESSURE EXERTED BY LIQUIDS AND GASES All the liquids and gases exert pressure on the bottom and walls of their containers Note 1 Pressure exerted by liquid at the bottom of the container depends on the height o its

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

PHYSICS

Ch11 Force And Pressure

FORCE

A push or pull acting on an object is called force

An interaction of one object with another object results in a force between the two objects

Force has magnitude as well as direction It is vector quantity

The SI unit of force is newton(N)

EFFECTS OF FORCE ON AN OBJECT

1 A force can move a stationary object 2 A force can stop a moving object 3 A force can change the speed of a moving object 4 A force can change the direction of a moving object 5 A force can change the shape and size of an object

Note A change in either the speed of an object or is direction of motion or both is known as a change in its state of motion RESULTANT FORCE CASE1 when two or more forces act on an object in same direction then their resultant is equal to the sum of their magnitude The direction of the resultant remains the same CASE 2 When two forces act on object in opposite direction then their resultant is equal to the difference of their magnitude The direction of resultant is along the force of larger magnitude CONTACT AND NON-CONTACT FORCES CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is in contact with the object the applied force is called contact force eg- muscular forcefrictional force etc NON ndash CONTACT FORCE If the agent applying the force is not in contact with the object the applied force is called non- contact force eg- magnetic force electrostatic force gravitational force etc PRESSURE Force acting per unit area is called pressure ie Pressure= ForceArea The SI unit of pressure is pascal(Pa) Note Pressure is directly proportional to the applied force and inversely proportional to the suface area PRESSURE EXERTED BY LIQUIDS AND GASES All the liquids and gases exert pressure on the bottom and walls of their containers Note 1 Pressure exerted by liquid at the bottom of the container depends on the height o its

column(Activity 118) 2 A liquid exert pressure on the walls of the container(Activity 119) 3 Liquids exert equal pressure at the same depth(Activity 1110)

ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE The atmospheric air extends upto many kilometres above the surface of the earthThe pressure exerted by this air is known as atmospheric pressure Atmospheric pressure is equal to the weight of air present in a very tall column of air standing on 1m2 area of the earth Working of dropperrubber sucker etc are based on atmospheric pressure Questions for practice 1 What is force write its SI unit 2 Write the possible effects of force on an object 3 What is meant by a contact force Give examples 4 What is meant by a non- contact force Give examples 5 Two forces of magnitudes 8N and 3N act on an object Find the resultant force when

they act along a)same direction and b)opposite direction 6 Explain an activity with labelled diagram showing liquid exert pressure at the bottom of

the container 7 Explain an activity with labelled diagram showing liquid exert pressure on the walls of

the container 8 What is pressure Write its SI unit 9 Explain whyschool bags are are provided with wide straps to carry them 10 Calculate the pressure when a force of 200N is exerted on an area of 5m2 11 What is meant by atmospheric pressure Name two devices that work on atmospheric

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

PROTOCOL

A protocol is a convention or standard that regulates the

operation of devices It can be defined as the set of rules

governing the syntax semantics and synchronization of

communication between hardware software or both

TYPES OF PROTOCOL

bull Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) ndash It is aprotocol that is used to display information on theWorld Wide Web Its main purpose is to provide away to display and retrieve HTML pages It is arequest protocol between clients and server

bull File Transfer Protocol (FTP) ndash It is a clientserverprotocol that helps in transferring or exchanging filesbetween client and server It may be authenticatedwith user name and password

bull Transmission Control ProtocolInternet Protocol(TCPIP) ndash It is a rule governing communication among all the computers on internet

bull Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) ndash It is a standard email protocol that stores email messages on a mail server and allows a user to view and manipulate the message as if they were stored locally on the users computing device

bull Simple Mail Transfer Protocol(SMTP) ndash It is a TCPIP protocol that is used in sending and receiving e-mail

CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cloud computing is a concept that enables sharingof computing resources rather than having localservers or personal devices to handle applicationWhenever someone uses an online service to sendemail edit documents watch movies or TV listento music play games or store pictures and otherfiles it is likely that cloud computing is making itall possible behind the scene

ADVANTAGES OF CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cost ndash Cloud computing eliminates the capitalexpense of buying hardware and software and settingup and running on-site data centers set up cost ofservers round the clock electricity for power backupthe IT experts for managing the infrastructure

bull Productivity ndash On-site data centers typically require alot of hardware set up software requirements andother time-consuming IT management tasks Cloudcomputing removes the need of many such tasks sothat the IT teams can spend time on achieving moreimportant business goals

bull Performance ndash The bigger cloud computing servicesrun on a worldwide network of secure data centerswhich are regularly upgraded to the latest generationof fast and efficient computing hardware

bull Reliability ndash Cloud computing helps in regular databackup and has provided for facilities for datarecovery as data gets mirrored at multiple redundantsites on the cloud providers network

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

JVM SHYAMALI Page 5

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

JVM SHYAMALI Page 7

Here Zn gt Cu hence displaces copper from CuSO4 and form ZnSO4 and Cu

b) FeSO4 + Cu rarr No displacement reaction

In this example Cu lt Fe hence copper does not displace iron USES OF METALS AND NON- METALS Uses of some metals-

a Iron Copper and aluminium are used to make cooking utensils and water boilers

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

Synthetic fibres and plastics) Fibre

The cloths which we wear are made up of fabrics Fabrics are made from fibres obtained from natural or artificial fibres Fibres are also used for making a large variety of household articles

Polymer A polymer is a substance composed of many repeated similar sub units The simplest molecule from which the repeating units are obtained is called monomer and the process of formation of a polymer from monomer is termed as polymerisation Synthetic Fibre Synthetic Fibres are those which are made by man in the laboratories These are called man made or artificial fibres Eg- Rayon Nylon and Polyester Natural Fibre The naturally occurring fibres that human derive from plants or animals are known as natural fibres Eg- Cotton Wool Silk etc Classification of synthetic fibre

Synthetic Fibre 1 Rayon Artificial Silk 2 Nylon 3 Polyester 4 Acrylic 1 Rayon Artificial Silk It is the first man made Fibre It is obtained from chemical treatment of wood pulp The process of making it in Europe is known as Viscose Process Rayon is mixed with cotton to make bed sheets or mixed with wool to make carpets 2 Nylon Nylon (word comes from ldquoNyrdquo=New York and ldquolonrdquo=London) was the first fully synthetic fibre prepared from coal water and air Fibre is strong elastic light lustrous and easy to wash It is used on a large scale in the preparation of carpets textile fibres bristles for brushes track suits rope etc

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

JVM SHYAMALI Page 5

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

JVM SHYAMALI Page 7

Here Zn gt Cu hence displaces copper from CuSO4 and form ZnSO4 and Cu

b) FeSO4 + Cu rarr No displacement reaction

In this example Cu lt Fe hence copper does not displace iron USES OF METALS AND NON- METALS Uses of some metals-

a Iron Copper and aluminium are used to make cooking utensils and water boilers

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

JVM SHYAMALI Page 7

Here Zn gt Cu hence displaces copper from CuSO4 and form ZnSO4 and Cu

b) FeSO4 + Cu rarr No displacement reaction

In this example Cu lt Fe hence copper does not displace iron USES OF METALS AND NON- METALS Uses of some metals-

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

Chapter - Materials Metals and Non ndash Metals

IMPORTANT NOTES- On the basis of their physical and chemical properties all the elements can be divided into 2 main groups Metals and Non- Metals PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS Malleability ndash the property which allows the metals to be hammered into thin

sheets is called malleability Gold and silver are the best malleable metals Other examples are ndash Al Cu etc

Non -metals are not malleable They are brittle Eg- carbon (coal graphite)sulphur etc

Ductility ndash the property by which metals can be drawn into wires Metals are generally ductile Eg - Au Ag Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Na K Hg Non- metals are not ductile Eg- S and P

Conductivity- metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity Eg- Cu Ag Au Al Fe etc

Exception ndash Hg Pb etc Non- metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity Eg- S coal (carbon) etc Exception ndash diamond (a form of carbon ) is a good conductor of heat while graphite ( a form of carbon) is a good conductor of electricity

Luster ndash luster means shiny appearance Metals are generally lustrous Eg- Au and Ag

Exception- Na Non-metals are generally not lustrous Eg- S P Exception- Iodine

Sonorous ndash this means that metals make a ringing sound when we strike them Metals are generally sonorous Eg ndash Fe Cu Al etc

Exception ndash Hg Non- metals are not sonorous Eg- C and S

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

JVM SHYAMALI Page 7

Here Zn gt Cu hence displaces copper from CuSO4 and form ZnSO4 and Cu

b) FeSO4 + Cu rarr No displacement reaction

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

PRACTICE QUESTIONS

1 Pick out the odd one from the following words given in the box and give reason for it Plough seed Drill Hoe chain Pump Sickle

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

Hardness ndash metals are generally hard This means that most of the metals cannot be cut easily Eg- Fe Al etc

Exception ndash Na and K are 2 soft metals which can be easily cut with a knife Most of the solid non- metals are quite soft Eg- S P Exception- diamond ( a form of carbon) is the hardest natural substance known CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON- METALS

Reaction with oxygen ndash metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides which are generally basic in nature The basic metal oxides turn red litmus paper to blue Examples are ndash

i Mg + O2 rarr MgO

MgO + H2O rarr Mg(OH)2

(Base) ii Fe + O2 + H2O rarr Fe2O3H2O

(Hydrated Iron Oxide ndash rust) (a basic oxide )

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are generally acidic in nature They turn blue litmus paper to red Example is When sulphur burns in air it forms sulphur dioxide This sulphur dioxide when dissolve in water it forms sulphurous acid The chemical reactions as follow

a S + O2 rarr SO2

b SO2 + H2O rarr H2SO3

( an acid) Reaction with water ndash when a metal reacts with water then a metal hydroxide and

hydrogen gas are formed

The intensity of reaction of a metal with water depends on its chemical reactivity Some metals react vigorously even with cold water some with hot water some with steam whereas some do not even react with steam For eg a) Sodium is a very reactive metal hence it reacts violently even with cold water

A lot of heat is generated in the reaction even with oxygen (in air) it reacts rapidly Therefore it is stored in kerosene

Na + H2O rarr NaOH + H2

JVM SHYAMALI Page 6

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

JVM SHYAMALI Page 7

Here Zn gt Cu hence displaces copper from CuSO4 and form ZnSO4 and Cu

b) FeSO4 + Cu rarr No displacement reaction

In this example Cu lt Fe hence copper does not displace iron USES OF METALS AND NON- METALS Uses of some metals-

a Iron Copper and aluminium are used to make cooking utensils and water boilers

b Copper is used for making electric wires

c Aluminium foils are used for packaging medicines chocolates etc Aluminium is also used to make aeroplanes

d Zinc metal is used for galvanizing iron to protect it from rusting

e Silver gold are used to make jewellery

Uses of non- metals- Some of the important uses are as follows-

a Oxygen is used for breathing by plants animals and human beings

b Nitrogen is used for making fertilizers

c Chlorine is used in the water purification process

d Iodine is used to make purple- coloured solution called lsquotincture iodinersquo which is used as an antiseptic

e Sulphur and phosphorus are used in fireworks (crackers)

- It occurs due to contaminated food - Microorganism that grows on food product sometimes produces toxic substances - Serious illness or even death may cause due to food poisoning - Generally caused by bacteria and fungi

Symptoms of food poisoning

(i) Diarrhoea (ii) Fever (iii) Headache (iv) Vomiting (v) Pain in abdomen

Vaccine ndash it is a dead or weakened form of microbes which stimulates the production of antibodies and provide immunity against several diseases

Antibiotic

It is a medicine which inhibits the growth of microorganisms

EgPenicillin

Plant Disease Causative Microorganism Mode of transmission Citrus Canker Bacteria Air Rust of Wheat Fungi Air Seed Yellow Vein mosaie of Bhindi

Virus Insects

Preservation ndashthe process in which food material are given suitable physical and chemical treatment to prevent spoilage of food The chemical used for preserration is called preservatives They checks the growth of microorganism

Methods of food preserrationndash

(i) Sodium benzoate amp sodium metabisulphite are used as common preserratives (ii) Common salt is usually used to preserve meat and fish (iii) Sugar reduces the moisture contents which prevents the growth of bacteria

therefore jams jellies ampsquarshes are preserved by sugar (iv) Use of oil amp vinegar prevents the spoilage of pickles (v) Milk is hearted or boiled for 15 to 30 seconds and then cooled This process is

called pasteurization (discovered by Louis Pasteur)

Pasteurization prevents the growth of microbes

(vi) Sundrying prevents the growth of microorganism due to absence of moisture in foog item

(vii) Refrigeration or Cooling ndash microorganisms do not grow at low temperature

Nitrogen Cycle

It is a biogeochemical process through which nitrogen is converted into many forms passing from the atmosphere to the soil to the atmosphere and back into the atmosphere It involves following process-

(a) Nitrogen fixation ndash Atmospheric nitrogen gas is converted into nitrogen compound

Types of nitrogen fixation

(i) Atmospheric fixation (ii) Industrial nitrogen fixation (iii) Biological nitrogen fixation (b) Nitrification ndash conversion of ammonia (NH3) into nitrate (c) Nitrogen Assimilation - Nitrogen compounds are converted into NH3 (d) Denitrification ndash Nitrogen compounds are converted into free nitrogen

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

Similarly potassium is also highly reactive metal and hence stored in kerosene b) Iron reacts with steam only

Non- metals generally do not react with water Some non-metals (reactive) are kept under water to protect them from the action of air Eg- Phosphorus

Reaction with acids ndash most of the metals react with dilute acids to form salts and hydrogen gas Only less reactive metals like Cu Ag and Au do not do so The vigour of reaction of a metal with dilute acid depends on the chemical reactivity of metal Eg-

Mg + dil HCl rarr MgCl2 + H2 Similarly Al Fe Zn metals also react with dilute acids to form corresponding salts and hydrogen gas This hydrogen gas burns with a lsquopoprsquo sound when a lighted match stick is brought near it Exception ndash copper metal reacts with hot and conc Sulphuric acid but no hydrogen is produced because hot and conc Sulphuric acid acts as an oxidizing agent Non-metals do not react with dilute acids Reaction with bases ndash some metals react with bases to form salt and hydrogen gas

Eg ndash Al reacts with NaOH( base) forming sodium aluminate( a salt) and hydrogen gas

NaOH + Al rarr NaAlO2 + H2

Some non-metals react with bases like NaOH but no hydrogen gas is produced The reactions are complex REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS The arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivates is called reactivity series of metals The reactivity series for some common metals as follow

K gt Na gt Ca gt Mg gt Al gt Zn gt Fe gt Pb gt Cu gt Ag gt Au

We should remember the above series because it helps to understand the displacement reaction of metals

DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS-

A reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in aqueous solution is called displacement reaction For example- a) CuSO4 + Zn rarr ZnSO4 + Cu

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

components 3 Write down the advantages of networking Define

Network Interface Unit4 What do you mean by server

MEDIA OF COMMUNICTION

bull Guided Transmission of data takes place through a

physical wired medium eg Ethernet cable Co-Axial

cable Optical fiber cable

bull Unguided Transmission of data takes place through

wireless medium eg Radio-wave Microwave

Infrared

TYPES OF GUIDED MEDIA

bull Ethernet Cable- It is a data link technology used in localarea network Such cables enables transmission speedsof 100-1000 mbps Ethernet cable can be categorizedinto -Straight Through Ethernet Cable ndash It is used to connectthe computer to a hub switch or to router There aretwo standards in which the colours of such cables arestraight ie T-568A and T-568B

bull Ethernet Crossover Cable ndash It is used to connectcomputing devices without connecting to hub or switchSuch cables have different pin points or plugs on eachside

bull Co-axial Cable ndash It acts as an efficient electricaltransmission media It consists of a single line ofconductor surrounded by an insulation layer and aconductive shield over it

bull Fiber optics ndash It has more capacity and provides highspeed of data transfer Here data is transferred throughlight waves

TYPES OF UNGUIDED MEDIA

bull Bluetooth ndash It is a wireless network connectivity thatenables to connect or transfer data between deviceswithin a short range like between mobile phoneslaptops personal computers printers etc Theconnectivity through bluetooth consumes less powerand the physical range of communication is upto 100meters Bluetooth communication is applied at manyplaces like for bar code scanning hands free headsetwireless connection of a PC with input and outputdevices

bull WindashFi ndash Wireless Fidelity is a network of wirelessconnection Wi-Fi connections are commonlyestablished in electronic gadgets including videogame console home networks PDAs tablets mobilephones etc To form a wireless computer network aWi-Fi adaptor is required on computer or terminaldevice

bull Infrared ndash computers or other devices can transferfiles or digital data to each other with the help ofinfrared connectivity within a short distance Thetransmission of data takes place through infraredadapters that are installed in handheld personaldevices or mobiles

2 What is Ethernet cable3 Define Bluetooth4 Explain different types of unguided media5 What is the use of Wi-Fi6 Compare Co-axial cable with Wi-Fi7 Mention one area each where Ethernet Coaxial

cable and Wi-Fi are used

TYPES OF NETWORK

1 LAN (Local Area Network) It is a type of network in which computers are connected in a local unit or within a small geographical area such as offices departments of a manufacturing unit etc

Characteristics of LANa) In LAN data communication takes place at a rate of

100-1000 mbpsb) It is owned by an individual or an organizationc) There is no specific tariff for its usage

2 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) MAN is a type of network in which the computers are connected over large geographical area such as a city and its suburbs It may be a single network or may be a network that connects several LANs

Characteristics of MAN a) It covers larger area than LAN but smaller

geographical area than WANb) It is surrounded within a single city or its suburbsc) It is mainly owned by large organizations to

interconnect all its branches across a city

3 WAN (Wide Area Network) It is a type of networkin which computers are connected over largegeographical area such as cities states countries oreven the whole world The common example of WANis Internet

Characteristics of WAN-a) The speed of data transfer is upto 150 mbpsb) It connects large geographical area at lesser costc) In WAN two or more network are connected

through Gateway that establishes connectivitybetween the protocols used in one network with theother network

4 PAN (Personal Area Network) It is a computernetwork that is used by an individual or is limitedwithin a range of 10 meters It is an interconnectionof several peripherals devices such as laptops smartphone printer etc Bluetooth Infrared are commonexamples of PAN

5 CAN ( Controller Area Network) It is an ISOcertified method of communication between variouselectronic devices used for lighting control airconditioning airbags central locking embedded in avehicle etc

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

Bacteria ndash cholera Typhoid TB

Virus ndash Polio Chicken pox

Fungi ndash Ringworm

Protozoa ndash Malaria Kala-azar

Types of diseases

(A) Comminicable Diseases ndash Diseases which can spread from an infected person to a healthy person through air water food or physical contact are known as communicable disease

EgChicken pox common cold tuber culosis etc

(B) Non-Communicable Diseases Those disease which cannot spread from infectedto healthy person is called as non-communicable disease

EgDiabetes Cancer etc

Carrier ndash the insects which transmit disease causing microorganism into human body are called as carrier

Eg (a) Housefly carries the parasite of typhoid

(b) Female Anopheles mosquito carries parasite of malaria

(c) Female Aedes mosquito carries the parasite of dengue

Food Poisoning

- It occurs due to contaminated food - Microorganism that grows on food product sometimes produces toxic substances - Serious illness or even death may cause due to food poisoning - Generally caused by bacteria and fungi

Symptoms of food poisoning

(i) Diarrhoea (ii) Fever (iii) Headache (iv) Vomiting (v) Pain in abdomen

Vaccine ndash it is a dead or weakened form of microbes which stimulates the production of antibodies and provide immunity against several diseases

Antibiotic

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

CLASS 8

CHAPTER 1 CROP PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT

Crop Plants of the same kind that are grown and cultivated as a source of food in a large cultivable land is called crop

Types of Crops Crops which are grown in the winter season (from Oct to March) are called Rabi crops The crops which are sown in the rainy season (from July to Oct) are called Kharif crops

Preparation of Soil

bull Preparation of soil is the first step in cultivating crop for food production bull The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop bull This is carried out using various processes and tools

Tilling or Ploughing The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or ploughing and is done by using a plough

Plough

bull Plough is a device that is used by farmers for different purposes such as adding of fertilizers tilling and loosening of the soil

bull It is also used for adding fertilizers to the soil removing weeds scaping of soil etc bull The ploughshare is the triangular iron strip bull A plough shaft is the main part of the plough which is made using a log of wood bull The other end of the shaft has a handle bull The other end is attached to a beam which is placed on the bullrsquos necks bull A wooden traditional plough can be operated by a pair of an ox and a man bull Nowadays these wooden ploughs are being replaced by the iron ploughs

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

PRACTICE QUESTIONS

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

Hoe A hoe is a tool that used to dig up soil to remove weeds and also loosen up the soil before planting a sapling

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

geographical area than WANb) It is surrounded within a single city or its suburbsc) It is mainly owned by large organizations to

interconnect all its branches across a city

3 WAN (Wide Area Network) It is a type of networkin which computers are connected over largegeographical area such as cities states countries oreven the whole world The common example of WANis Internet

Characteristics of WAN-a) The speed of data transfer is upto 150 mbpsb) It connects large geographical area at lesser costc) In WAN two or more network are connected

through Gateway that establishes connectivitybetween the protocols used in one network with theother network

4 PAN (Personal Area Network) It is a computernetwork that is used by an individual or is limitedwithin a range of 10 meters It is an interconnectionof several peripherals devices such as laptops smartphone printer etc Bluetooth Infrared are commonexamples of PAN

Cultivator

bull A cultivator is attached to the tractor and helps in loosening soil bull Cultivators are used instead of ploughs since they are faster

Advantages of ploughing 1 It helps in the penetration of roots deeply 2 Soil gets loose by ploughing and therefore air can pass through it So we can

say that it aerates the root 3 It is helpful in removing unwanted plants or weeds 4 It is helpful in mixing or upturning of soil 5 It is helpful in destroying harmful organisms

Leveling After ploughing certain lumps are left Then leveling helps in breaking of big lumps of soil It is done by a leveler

Advantages of leveling

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

Network refers to inter connected group of peopleobject companies computers etc which areconnected together to exchange information andresources among themselves

COMMUNICATION

bull Communication means to establish link betweenpeople or computers to share information andresources among each other

bull In communication process there is a sender a receiverand a communication channel

bull Sender is the one who sends data ie the sourcebull Receiver is the one who receives data ie the

destinationbull Communication channel is the media by which the

data is transferred ie air water waves satelliteconnection etc from sender to receiver

ADVANTAGES OF NETWORKING

bull Networking enables to share files among different

nodes or workstations

bull Networking helps in sharing of hardware devices

bull Networking helps in instant delivery of information

bull In a network data or information can be transferred at

a very low cost

TERMINOLOGIES USED IN NETWORKING

bull Server It is a centralized computer that has hugestorage capacity and very high processing speed It actsas an intermediary between two or more computerswhich are on networks

bull Workstation It refers to a the computer connected in anetwork It is also known as node

bull Network Interface Unit (NIU) It is a device attached toeach node and thus is connected to the server It acts as acommon interface to establish connection betweennetworked computers to connect to an outside network

EXERCISE 11

1 Define network2 Explain Communication process and its

components 3 Write down the advantages of networking Define

Network Interface Unit4 What do you mean by server

MEDIA OF COMMUNICTION

bull Guided Transmission of data takes place through a

physical wired medium eg Ethernet cable Co-Axial

cable Optical fiber cable

bull Unguided Transmission of data takes place through

wireless medium eg Radio-wave Microwave

Infrared

TYPES OF GUIDED MEDIA

bull Ethernet Cable- It is a data link technology used in localarea network Such cables enables transmission speedsof 100-1000 mbps Ethernet cable can be categorizedinto -Straight Through Ethernet Cable ndash It is used to connectthe computer to a hub switch or to router There aretwo standards in which the colours of such cables arestraight ie T-568A and T-568B

bull Ethernet Crossover Cable ndash It is used to connectcomputing devices without connecting to hub or switchSuch cables have different pin points or plugs on eachside

bull Co-axial Cable ndash It acts as an efficient electricaltransmission media It consists of a single line ofconductor surrounded by an insulation layer and aconductive shield over it

bull Fiber optics ndash It has more capacity and provides highspeed of data transfer Here data is transferred throughlight waves

TYPES OF UNGUIDED MEDIA

bull Bluetooth ndash It is a wireless network connectivity thatenables to connect or transfer data between deviceswithin a short range like between mobile phoneslaptops personal computers printers etc Theconnectivity through bluetooth consumes less powerand the physical range of communication is upto 100meters Bluetooth communication is applied at manyplaces like for bar code scanning hands free headsetwireless connection of a PC with input and outputdevices

bull WindashFi ndash Wireless Fidelity is a network of wirelessconnection Wi-Fi connections are commonlyestablished in electronic gadgets including videogame console home networks PDAs tablets mobilephones etc To form a wireless computer network aWi-Fi adaptor is required on computer or terminaldevice

bull Infrared ndash computers or other devices can transferfiles or digital data to each other with the help ofinfrared connectivity within a short distance Thetransmission of data takes place through infraredadapters that are installed in handheld personaldevices or mobiles

EXERCISE 12

1 Explain the two categories of communicatingmedia with suitable examples

2 What is Ethernet cable3 Define Bluetooth4 Explain different types of unguided media5 What is the use of Wi-Fi6 Compare Co-axial cable with Wi-Fi7 Mention one area each where Ethernet Coaxial

cable and Wi-Fi are used

TYPES OF NETWORK

1 LAN (Local Area Network) It is a type of network in which computers are connected in a local unit or within a small geographical area such as offices departments of a manufacturing unit etc

Characteristics of LANa) In LAN data communication takes place at a rate of

100-1000 mbpsb) It is owned by an individual or an organizationc) There is no specific tariff for its usage

2 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) MAN is a type of network in which the computers are connected over large geographical area such as a city and its suburbs It may be a single network or may be a network that connects several LANs

Characteristics of MAN a) It covers larger area than LAN but smaller

geographical area than WANb) It is surrounded within a single city or its suburbsc) It is mainly owned by large organizations to

interconnect all its branches across a city

3 WAN (Wide Area Network) It is a type of networkin which computers are connected over largegeographical area such as cities states countries oreven the whole world The common example of WANis Internet

Characteristics of WAN-a) The speed of data transfer is upto 150 mbpsb) It connects large geographical area at lesser costc) In WAN two or more network are connected

through Gateway that establishes connectivitybetween the protocols used in one network with theother network

4 PAN (Personal Area Network) It is a computernetwork that is used by an individual or is limitedwithin a range of 10 meters It is an interconnectionof several peripherals devices such as laptops smartphone printer etc Bluetooth Infrared are commonexamples of PAN

5 CAN ( Controller Area Network) It is an ISOcertified method of communication between variouselectronic devices used for lighting control airconditioning airbags central locking embedded in avehicle etc

EXERCISE 13

1 Explain network and give one real life example for it2 Expand the following

(a) LAN (b) MAN (c) WAN(d) PAN (e) CAN

3 Explain LAN Write down its characteristics4 What do you mean by MAN Explain its

characteristics5 What is wide area network Write down its

characteristics6 Write short notes on- (a) PAN (b) CAN

NETWORK TOPOLOGY

Topology refers to the physical layout of connectionbetween different workstations ie nodes or server in anetwork1 Linear Topology ndash In linear topology nodes are

connected serially with each other except the last nodeat both ends

2 Bus Topology ndash In bus topology each node in thenetwork is connected to the single commoncommunication wire and this single communication lineis referred as Bus

3 Star Topology ndash In star topology computers or itsdevices are not directly linked to each other but theyare connected via centralized network componentcalled as hub

4 Ring Topology ndash In ring topology computers areplaced in a circle of cable without any terminating endsince there is no disconnected end

5 Tree Topology ndash A tree topology combines thecharacteristics of linear bus and star topology Itconsists of group of networks connected to a bus orcable

6 Mesh Topology ndash In a mesh topology every node hasdedicated point-to-point link to every other node

E-LINKS1 e-Mail ndash e-mail or electronic mail is a way to send and

receive messages among people across the globe2 e-Commerce ndash It refers to the paperless exchange of

1 It is helpful in protection of soil from erosion 2 It promotes irrigation

Manuring It is defined as mixing of soil with manure It is helpful in increasing soil fertility

Fertility means soil has sufficient nutrients

Sowing

bull Sowing the process of planting the seeds in the soil bull The seeds are sowed in the soil that is loosened by cultivator or plough

Quality of the Seeds

bull Quality of the seed is an important factor that determines the crop yield bull Selection of good seeds is done by putting the seeds in water bull The dead and damaged seeds become hollow and float on water whereas the good seeds

sink

Traditional Tools

bull Before the advent of modern agricultural machinery traditional tools were used by farmers bull These include ploughs shovels scythes and pickaxes bull The traditional tool used to sow the seeds was like a funnel bull Once seeds put into this funnel they would go to 2-3 tubes having sharp ends and the ends

will pierce into the soil and place the seeds there

Methods of sowing There are different methods of sowing which are explained as follows

Broad Casting It is a method in which seeds are sown manually directly by scattering in soil Disadvantage of this method is that it leads to unequal distribution of seeds and thereby reduces crop yield

Seed drill In a seed drill an iron funnel is placed at the top Seeds are put in the funnel and then released in soil furrows The advantage of this method is that it saves time and seeds are sown at right depth

Transplantation

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

In this method seeds are sown first in nurseries and then the seedlings are transferred to the main field For example Paddy

Adding Manure and Fertilisers

ManureFertilizers bull Manures and fertilizers are the substances that are added to the soil to increase

their fertility

bull While manures are made by decomposition of organic substances fertilizer is made of inorganic chemicals

Difference between Manure and Fertilizers

Fertilizer Manure

Fertilizer is an inorganic salt Manure is prepared from organic matter such as human waste cow dung and farm waste

Fertilizers are manufactured in factories Manures can be prepared in farms

Fertilizers are added in comparatively smaller quantities

Manures need to be added in large quantity as the nutrient content is less

Fertilizers do not provide any humus to the soil Manures provide a lot of humus to soil

Disadvantages of Using Fertilizers bull Excessive use of fertiliser can cause pollution

bull It can also change pH of the soil in certain rare cases

Irrigation It is supplying water to plants

Sources of irrigation Water can be obtained from pond lake tube well

Traditional method of Irrigation The traditional methods of irrigation are as follows-

Moat Water is pulled out from the well and directly supplied to the plants

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

Dhekli In dhekli buckets are used and then with the help of rope water is pulled out from the well

Rahat In this method buckets are knotted with rope on wheel and then bulls rotate the handle due to which wheel turned up and then water gets filled into the bucket and used for different purposes

Chain pump In this method two wheels are used The one wheel is easily visible and the another wheel at the bottom is slightly dipped into the soil These two wheels are connected with each other through chain and buckets are joined with wheel When wheels rotate buckets get filled and used for different purposes

Modern methods of irrigation In modern methods two methods are used which are as follows

Sprinkler System

In this method water is distributed through a system of perpendicular pipes usually by pumping

It is then sprayed into the air over entire soil surface through spray heads on rotating nozzles so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground This system provides efficient coverage for small to large areas and is suitable for use on all types of soil This method of supplying water is similar to rainfall

Drip system

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

the grain seeds

Winnowing

bull Winnowing is the process of separation of grain seeds from the chaff using the help of the wind

bull Due to the wind the lighter chaff flies away and the heavier grains fall down

Storage

bull Storage of the grains is an important step in agriculture bull After harvesting steps the ready grains are stored in granaries or silos bull The grains have to stored in a dry place that does not have a rodent or fungal

infestation bull Fumigation of storage places is carried out to make it free from microbes

Granaries

bull Granaries are the place where the freshly obtained food grains are stored

Animal Husbandry

bull Animal husbandry is the management and care of farm animals for milk egg or meat

In this system water falls drop by drop just at the position of roots Drip Irrigation also called trickle irrigation

A drip irrigation system carries water directly to the base of each individual plant Water is allowed to fall drop by drop from a pipe just near the roots It is an ideal watering method It saves water It also reduces soil erosion Water and nutrients reach directly to the places where needed It saves time and labour

Uses It is helpful in translocation of food

It protects the crops from frost and hot climate

Disadvantages of excess irrigation Due to excess irrigation seeds canrsquot respire

Due to excess irrigation roots do not grow well

Crop Rotation

bull Crop rotation ensures that the same crop will not grow continuously and lead to the erosion of the soil fertility

bull By growing crops that require different sets of nutrient we can ensure the soil fertility is restored

Protecting from Weeds

Weeds Weeds are undesirable plants that may grow naturally along with the crop

bull Weeds compete with the crops by absorbing all the water nutrients space and light

Tilling

bull Tilling is a process done before sowing of crops that helps in uprooting and killing of weeds

Manual Removal

bull Manual removal includes physical removal of weeds by uprooting them from the soil or chopping them off to ground level periodically

Weedicides

bull Chemicals used to kill the weeds are known as weedicides bull They usually donrsquot damage the crop

Harvesting

bull Harvesting is the process of cutting the crop after it is mature

Methods of Harvesting

bull Harvesting is done by 2 methods bull First is the manual method where a sickle is used bull Second is the mechanical method where a huge machine called harvester is

used

Threshing

bull Threshing is the process of loosening the grains from the chaff bull While it can be done manually these days a machine is used that separates all

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

components 3 Write down the advantages of networking Define

Network Interface Unit4 What do you mean by server

MEDIA OF COMMUNICTION

bull Guided Transmission of data takes place through a

physical wired medium eg Ethernet cable Co-Axial

cable Optical fiber cable

bull Unguided Transmission of data takes place through

wireless medium eg Radio-wave Microwave

Infrared

TYPES OF GUIDED MEDIA

bull Ethernet Cable- It is a data link technology used in localarea network Such cables enables transmission speedsof 100-1000 mbps Ethernet cable can be categorizedinto -Straight Through Ethernet Cable ndash It is used to connectthe computer to a hub switch or to router There aretwo standards in which the colours of such cables arestraight ie T-568A and T-568B

bull Ethernet Crossover Cable ndash It is used to connectcomputing devices without connecting to hub or switchSuch cables have different pin points or plugs on eachside

bull Co-axial Cable ndash It acts as an efficient electricaltransmission media It consists of a single line ofconductor surrounded by an insulation layer and aconductive shield over it

bull Fiber optics ndash It has more capacity and provides highspeed of data transfer Here data is transferred throughlight waves

TYPES OF UNGUIDED MEDIA

bull Bluetooth ndash It is a wireless network connectivity thatenables to connect or transfer data between deviceswithin a short range like between mobile phoneslaptops personal computers printers etc Theconnectivity through bluetooth consumes less powerand the physical range of communication is upto 100meters Bluetooth communication is applied at manyplaces like for bar code scanning hands free headsetwireless connection of a PC with input and outputdevices

bull WindashFi ndash Wireless Fidelity is a network of wirelessconnection Wi-Fi connections are commonlyestablished in electronic gadgets including videogame console home networks PDAs tablets mobilephones etc To form a wireless computer network aWi-Fi adaptor is required on computer or terminaldevice

bull Infrared ndash computers or other devices can transferfiles or digital data to each other with the help ofinfrared connectivity within a short distance Thetransmission of data takes place through infraredadapters that are installed in handheld personaldevices or mobiles

100-1000 mbpsb) It is owned by an individual or an organizationc) There is no specific tariff for its usage

2 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) MAN is a type of network in which the computers are connected over large geographical area such as a city and its suburbs It may be a single network or may be a network that connects several LANs

Characteristics of MAN a) It covers larger area than LAN but smaller

geographical area than WANb) It is surrounded within a single city or its suburbsc) It is mainly owned by large organizations to

interconnect all its branches across a city

3 WAN (Wide Area Network) It is a type of networkin which computers are connected over largegeographical area such as cities states countries oreven the whole world The common example of WANis Internet

Characteristics of WAN-a) The speed of data transfer is upto 150 mbpsb) It connects large geographical area at lesser costc) In WAN two or more network are connected

through Gateway that establishes connectivitybetween the protocols used in one network with theother network

4 PAN (Personal Area Network) It is a computernetwork that is used by an individual or is limitedwithin a range of 10 meters It is an interconnectionof several peripherals devices such as laptops smartphone printer etc Bluetooth Infrared are commonexamples of PAN

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

TERMINOLOGIES USED IN NETWORKING

bull Server It is a centralized computer that has hugestorage capacity and very high processing speed It actsas an intermediary between two or more computerswhich are on networks

bull Workstation It refers to a the computer connected in anetwork It is also known as node

bull Network Interface Unit (NIU) It is a device attached toeach node and thus is connected to the server It acts as acommon interface to establish connection betweennetworked computers to connect to an outside network

EXERCISE 11

1 Define network2 Explain Communication process and its

components 3 Write down the advantages of networking Define

Network Interface Unit4 What do you mean by server

MEDIA OF COMMUNICTION

bull Guided Transmission of data takes place through a

physical wired medium eg Ethernet cable Co-Axial

cable Optical fiber cable

bull Unguided Transmission of data takes place through

wireless medium eg Radio-wave Microwave

Infrared

TYPES OF GUIDED MEDIA

bull Ethernet Cable- It is a data link technology used in localarea network Such cables enables transmission speedsof 100-1000 mbps Ethernet cable can be categorizedinto -Straight Through Ethernet Cable ndash It is used to connectthe computer to a hub switch or to router There aretwo standards in which the colours of such cables arestraight ie T-568A and T-568B

bull Ethernet Crossover Cable ndash It is used to connectcomputing devices without connecting to hub or switchSuch cables have different pin points or plugs on eachside

bull Co-axial Cable ndash It acts as an efficient electricaltransmission media It consists of a single line ofconductor surrounded by an insulation layer and aconductive shield over it

bull Fiber optics ndash It has more capacity and provides highspeed of data transfer Here data is transferred throughlight waves

TYPES OF UNGUIDED MEDIA

bull Bluetooth ndash It is a wireless network connectivity thatenables to connect or transfer data between deviceswithin a short range like between mobile phoneslaptops personal computers printers etc Theconnectivity through bluetooth consumes less powerand the physical range of communication is upto 100meters Bluetooth communication is applied at manyplaces like for bar code scanning hands free headsetwireless connection of a PC with input and outputdevices

bull WindashFi ndash Wireless Fidelity is a network of wirelessconnection Wi-Fi connections are commonlyestablished in electronic gadgets including videogame console home networks PDAs tablets mobilephones etc To form a wireless computer network aWi-Fi adaptor is required on computer or terminaldevice

bull Infrared ndash computers or other devices can transferfiles or digital data to each other with the help ofinfrared connectivity within a short distance Thetransmission of data takes place through infraredadapters that are installed in handheld personaldevices or mobiles

EXERCISE 12

1 Explain the two categories of communicatingmedia with suitable examples

2 What is Ethernet cable3 Define Bluetooth4 Explain different types of unguided media5 What is the use of Wi-Fi6 Compare Co-axial cable with Wi-Fi7 Mention one area each where Ethernet Coaxial

cable and Wi-Fi are used

TYPES OF NETWORK

1 LAN (Local Area Network) It is a type of network in which computers are connected in a local unit or within a small geographical area such as offices departments of a manufacturing unit etc

Characteristics of LANa) In LAN data communication takes place at a rate of

100-1000 mbpsb) It is owned by an individual or an organizationc) There is no specific tariff for its usage

2 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) MAN is a type of network in which the computers are connected over large geographical area such as a city and its suburbs It may be a single network or may be a network that connects several LANs

Characteristics of MAN a) It covers larger area than LAN but smaller

geographical area than WANb) It is surrounded within a single city or its suburbsc) It is mainly owned by large organizations to

interconnect all its branches across a city

3 WAN (Wide Area Network) It is a type of networkin which computers are connected over largegeographical area such as cities states countries oreven the whole world The common example of WANis Internet

Characteristics of WAN-a) The speed of data transfer is upto 150 mbpsb) It connects large geographical area at lesser costc) In WAN two or more network are connected

through Gateway that establishes connectivitybetween the protocols used in one network with theother network

4 PAN (Personal Area Network) It is a computernetwork that is used by an individual or is limitedwithin a range of 10 meters It is an interconnectionof several peripherals devices such as laptops smartphone printer etc Bluetooth Infrared are commonexamples of PAN

5 CAN ( Controller Area Network) It is an ISOcertified method of communication between variouselectronic devices used for lighting control airconditioning airbags central locking embedded in avehicle etc

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

CHAPTER - 1 THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

bull A Constitution prevents tyranny or domination by the majority of a minority

bull The Constitution helps to protect us against certain decisions that we might take that could have an adverse effect on the larger principles that the country believes in

THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION KEY FEATURES

bull The country was made up of several different communities who spoke different languages belonged to different religions and had distinct cultures

bull For this there was a need for Constitution which could ensure a perfect democracy A group of around three hundred people who became members of the Constituent Assembly in 1946 and who met periodically for the next three years to write Indian Constitution

FEDERALISM

bull This refers to the existence of more than one level of government in the country In India there are governments at the state level and at the centre Panchayati Raj is the third tier of government

bull While each state in India enjoys autonomy in exercising powers on certain issues they are bound to follow the laws of the central government as a matter of national concern The Constitution clearly defines the jurisdictions of powers of the government at the state and at the centre

PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT

bull The Constitution of India guarantees universal adult suffrage for all citizens This means that the people of India have a direct role in electing their representatives

SEPARATION OF POWERS

bull There are three organs of government (a) LEGISLATURE ndash refers to our elected representatives (b) EXECUTIVE ndash is a smaller group of people who are responsible for

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

bull Is the lsquoconsciencersquo of the Indian Constitution bull Fundamental Rights protect citizens against the arbitrary and absolute

exercise of power by the state bull The Constitution guarantees the rights of individuals against the State

as well as against other individuals

bull The Fundamental Rights in the Indian Constitution include (a) RIGHT TO EQUALITY (b) RIGHT TO FREEDOM (c) RIGHT AGAINST EXPLOITATION (d) RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION (e) CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS (f) RIGHT TO CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES

bull Directive Principles of State Policy ndash it ensure greater social and economic reforms and to serve as a guide to the independent Indian State to institute laws and policies that help reduce the poverty of the masses

SECULARISM

bull A secular state is one in which the state does not officially promote any one religion as the state religion The Constitution plays a crucial role in laying out the ideals that we would like all citizens of the country to adhere to including the representatives that we elect to rule us

ASSIGNMENT

1) Who is known as the Father of the Indian Constitution 2) Define the term Universal Adult Suffrage 3) What do you mean by Secularism 4) Why does a democratic country need a Constitution 5) Describe all the Fundamental Rights mentioned in the Constitution

WHY DOES A COUNTRY NEED A CONSTITUTION

bull A Constitution lays out certain ideals that form the basis of the kind of country that we as citizens aspire to live in

bull A Constitution tells about the fundamental nature of our society bull A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all

persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed

bull This includes not only the type of government but also an agreement on certain ideals that they all believe the country should uphold

bull When Nepal was a monarchy it reflected the final authority of the king After transition of Nepal in a democracy it started the process of writing a new Constitution for the country

bull In a democracy leaders exercise their power responsibly on the behalf of the people

bull In democratic societies the Constitution often lays down rules that guard against this misuse of authority by our political leaders

bull A Constitution ensures that a dominant group does not use its power against other less powerful people or groups

implementing laws and running the government (c) JUDICIARY ndash refers to the system of courts in the country

bull Each organ acts as a check on the other organs of government and this ensures the balance of power between all three

Chapter 1NETWORK

NETWORK

Network refers to inter connected group of peopleobject companies computers etc which areconnected together to exchange information andresources among themselves

COMMUNICATION

bull Communication means to establish link betweenpeople or computers to share information andresources among each other

bull In communication process there is a sender a receiverand a communication channel

bull Sender is the one who sends data ie the sourcebull Receiver is the one who receives data ie the

destinationbull Communication channel is the media by which the

data is transferred ie air water waves satelliteconnection etc from sender to receiver

ADVANTAGES OF NETWORKING

bull Networking enables to share files among different

nodes or workstations

bull Networking helps in sharing of hardware devices

bull Networking helps in instant delivery of information

bull In a network data or information can be transferred at

a very low cost

TERMINOLOGIES USED IN NETWORKING

bull Server It is a centralized computer that has hugestorage capacity and very high processing speed It actsas an intermediary between two or more computerswhich are on networks

bull Workstation It refers to a the computer connected in anetwork It is also known as node

bull Network Interface Unit (NIU) It is a device attached toeach node and thus is connected to the server It acts as acommon interface to establish connection betweennetworked computers to connect to an outside network

EXERCISE 11

1 Define network2 Explain Communication process and its

components 3 Write down the advantages of networking Define

Network Interface Unit4 What do you mean by server

MEDIA OF COMMUNICTION

bull Guided Transmission of data takes place through a

physical wired medium eg Ethernet cable Co-Axial

cable Optical fiber cable

bull Unguided Transmission of data takes place through

wireless medium eg Radio-wave Microwave

Infrared

TYPES OF GUIDED MEDIA

bull Ethernet Cable- It is a data link technology used in localarea network Such cables enables transmission speedsof 100-1000 mbps Ethernet cable can be categorizedinto -Straight Through Ethernet Cable ndash It is used to connectthe computer to a hub switch or to router There aretwo standards in which the colours of such cables arestraight ie T-568A and T-568B

bull Ethernet Crossover Cable ndash It is used to connectcomputing devices without connecting to hub or switchSuch cables have different pin points or plugs on eachside

bull Co-axial Cable ndash It acts as an efficient electricaltransmission media It consists of a single line ofconductor surrounded by an insulation layer and aconductive shield over it

bull Fiber optics ndash It has more capacity and provides highspeed of data transfer Here data is transferred throughlight waves

TYPES OF UNGUIDED MEDIA

bull Bluetooth ndash It is a wireless network connectivity thatenables to connect or transfer data between deviceswithin a short range like between mobile phoneslaptops personal computers printers etc Theconnectivity through bluetooth consumes less powerand the physical range of communication is upto 100meters Bluetooth communication is applied at manyplaces like for bar code scanning hands free headsetwireless connection of a PC with input and outputdevices

bull WindashFi ndash Wireless Fidelity is a network of wirelessconnection Wi-Fi connections are commonlyestablished in electronic gadgets including videogame console home networks PDAs tablets mobilephones etc To form a wireless computer network aWi-Fi adaptor is required on computer or terminaldevice

bull Infrared ndash computers or other devices can transferfiles or digital data to each other with the help ofinfrared connectivity within a short distance Thetransmission of data takes place through infraredadapters that are installed in handheld personaldevices or mobiles

EXERCISE 12

1 Explain the two categories of communicatingmedia with suitable examples

2 What is Ethernet cable3 Define Bluetooth4 Explain different types of unguided media5 What is the use of Wi-Fi6 Compare Co-axial cable with Wi-Fi7 Mention one area each where Ethernet Coaxial

cable and Wi-Fi are used

TYPES OF NETWORK

1 LAN (Local Area Network) It is a type of network in which computers are connected in a local unit or within a small geographical area such as offices departments of a manufacturing unit etc

Characteristics of LANa) In LAN data communication takes place at a rate of

100-1000 mbpsb) It is owned by an individual or an organizationc) There is no specific tariff for its usage

2 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) MAN is a type of network in which the computers are connected over large geographical area such as a city and its suburbs It may be a single network or may be a network that connects several LANs

Characteristics of MAN a) It covers larger area than LAN but smaller

geographical area than WANb) It is surrounded within a single city or its suburbsc) It is mainly owned by large organizations to

interconnect all its branches across a city

3 WAN (Wide Area Network) It is a type of networkin which computers are connected over largegeographical area such as cities states countries oreven the whole world The common example of WANis Internet

Characteristics of WAN-a) The speed of data transfer is upto 150 mbpsb) It connects large geographical area at lesser costc) In WAN two or more network are connected

through Gateway that establishes connectivitybetween the protocols used in one network with theother network

4 PAN (Personal Area Network) It is a computernetwork that is used by an individual or is limitedwithin a range of 10 meters It is an interconnectionof several peripherals devices such as laptops smartphone printer etc Bluetooth Infrared are commonexamples of PAN

5 CAN ( Controller Area Network) It is an ISOcertified method of communication between variouselectronic devices used for lighting control airconditioning airbags central locking embedded in avehicle etc

EXERCISE 13

1 Explain network and give one real life example for it2 Expand the following

(a) LAN (b) MAN (c) WAN(d) PAN (e) CAN

3 Explain LAN Write down its characteristics4 What do you mean by MAN Explain its

characteristics5 What is wide area network Write down its

characteristics6 Write short notes on- (a) PAN (b) CAN

NETWORK TOPOLOGY

Topology refers to the physical layout of connectionbetween different workstations ie nodes or server in anetwork1 Linear Topology ndash In linear topology nodes are

connected serially with each other except the last nodeat both ends

2 Bus Topology ndash In bus topology each node in thenetwork is connected to the single commoncommunication wire and this single communication lineis referred as Bus

3 Star Topology ndash In star topology computers or itsdevices are not directly linked to each other but theyare connected via centralized network componentcalled as hub

4 Ring Topology ndash In ring topology computers areplaced in a circle of cable without any terminating endsince there is no disconnected end

5 Tree Topology ndash A tree topology combines thecharacteristics of linear bus and star topology Itconsists of group of networks connected to a bus orcable

6 Mesh Topology ndash In a mesh topology every node hasdedicated point-to-point link to every other node

E-LINKS1 e-Mail ndash e-mail or electronic mail is a way to send and

COMMUNICATION

bull Communication means to establish link betweenpeople or computers to share information andresources among each other

bull In communication process there is a sender a receiverand a communication channel

bull Sender is the one who sends data ie the sourcebull Receiver is the one who receives data ie the

destinationbull Communication channel is the media by which the

data is transferred ie air water waves satelliteconnection etc from sender to receiver

ADVANTAGES OF NETWORKING

bull Networking enables to share files among different

nodes or workstations

bull Networking helps in sharing of hardware devices

bull Networking helps in instant delivery of information

bull In a network data or information can be transferred at

a very low cost

TERMINOLOGIES USED IN NETWORKING

PROTOCOL

A protocol is a convention or standard that regulates the

operation of devices It can be defined as the set of rules

governing the syntax semantics and synchronization of

communication between hardware software or both

TYPES OF PROTOCOL

bull Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) ndash It is aprotocol that is used to display information on theWorld Wide Web Its main purpose is to provide away to display and retrieve HTML pages It is arequest protocol between clients and server

bull File Transfer Protocol (FTP) ndash It is a clientserverprotocol that helps in transferring or exchanging filesbetween client and server It may be authenticatedwith user name and password

bull Transmission Control ProtocolInternet Protocol(TCPIP) ndash It is a rule governing communication among all the computers on internet

bull Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) ndash It is a standard email protocol that stores email messages on a mail server and allows a user to view and manipulate the message as if they were stored locally on the users computing device

bull Simple Mail Transfer Protocol(SMTP) ndash It is a TCPIP protocol that is used in sending and receiving e-mail

CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cloud computing is a concept that enables sharingof computing resources rather than having localservers or personal devices to handle applicationWhenever someone uses an online service to sendemail edit documents watch movies or TV listento music play games or store pictures and otherfiles it is likely that cloud computing is making itall possible behind the scene

ADVANTAGES OF CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cost ndash Cloud computing eliminates the capitalexpense of buying hardware and software and settingup and running on-site data centers set up cost ofservers round the clock electricity for power backupthe IT experts for managing the infrastructure

bull Productivity ndash On-site data centers typically require alot of hardware set up software requirements andother time-consuming IT management tasks Cloudcomputing removes the need of many such tasks sothat the IT teams can spend time on achieving moreimportant business goals

bull Performance ndash The bigger cloud computing servicesrun on a worldwide network of secure data centerswhich are regularly upgraded to the latest generationof fast and efficient computing hardware

bull Reliability ndash Cloud computing helps in regular databackup and has provided for facilities for datarecovery as data gets mirrored at multiple redundantsites on the cloud providers network

cable and Wi-Fi are used

TYPES OF NETWORK

1 LAN (Local Area Network) It is a type of network in which computers are connected in a local unit or within a small geographical area such as offices departments of a manufacturing unit etc

Characteristics of LANa) In LAN data communication takes place at a rate of

100-1000 mbpsb) It is owned by an individual or an organizationc) There is no specific tariff for its usage

2 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) MAN is a type of network in which the computers are connected over large geographical area such as a city and its suburbs It may be a single network or may be a network that connects several LANs

Characteristics of MAN a) It covers larger area than LAN but smaller

geographical area than WANb) It is surrounded within a single city or its suburbsc) It is mainly owned by large organizations to

interconnect all its branches across a city

3 WAN (Wide Area Network) It is a type of networkin which computers are connected over largegeographical area such as cities states countries oreven the whole world The common example of WANis Internet

Characteristics of WAN-a) The speed of data transfer is upto 150 mbpsb) It connects large geographical area at lesser costc) In WAN two or more network are connected

through Gateway that establishes connectivitybetween the protocols used in one network with theother network

4 PAN (Personal Area Network) It is a computernetwork that is used by an individual or is limitedwithin a range of 10 meters It is an interconnectionof several peripherals devices such as laptops smartphone printer etc Bluetooth Infrared are commonexamples of PAN

5 CAN ( Controller Area Network) It is an ISOcertified method of communication between variouselectronic devices used for lighting control airconditioning airbags central locking embedded in avehicle etc

bull Simple Mail Transfer Protocol(SMTP) ndash It is a TCPIP protocol that is used in sending and receiving e-mail

CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cloud computing is a concept that enables sharingof computing resources rather than having localservers or personal devices to handle applicationWhenever someone uses an online service to sendemail edit documents watch movies or TV listento music play games or store pictures and otherfiles it is likely that cloud computing is making itall possible behind the scene

ADVANTAGES OF CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cost ndash Cloud computing eliminates the capitalexpense of buying hardware and software and settingup and running on-site data centers set up cost ofservers round the clock electricity for power backupthe IT experts for managing the infrastructure

bull Productivity ndash On-site data centers typically require alot of hardware set up software requirements andother time-consuming IT management tasks Cloudcomputing removes the need of many such tasks sothat the IT teams can spend time on achieving moreimportant business goals

bull Performance ndash The bigger cloud computing servicesrun on a worldwide network of secure data centerswhich are regularly upgraded to the latest generationof fast and efficient computing hardware

bull Reliability ndash Cloud computing helps in regular databackup and has provided for facilities for datarecovery as data gets mirrored at multiple redundantsites on the cloud providers network

PROTOCOL

A protocol is a convention or standard that regulates the

operation of devices It can be defined as the set of rules

governing the syntax semantics and synchronization of

communication between hardware software or both

TYPES OF PROTOCOL

bull Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) ndash It is aprotocol that is used to display information on theWorld Wide Web Its main purpose is to provide away to display and retrieve HTML pages It is arequest protocol between clients and server

bull File Transfer Protocol (FTP) ndash It is a clientserverprotocol that helps in transferring or exchanging filesbetween client and server It may be authenticatedwith user name and password

bull Transmission Control ProtocolInternet Protocol(TCPIP) ndash It is a rule governing communication among all the computers on internet

bull Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) ndash It is a standard email protocol that stores email messages on a mail server and allows a user to view and manipulate the message as if they were stored locally on the users computing device

bull Simple Mail Transfer Protocol(SMTP) ndash It is a TCPIP protocol that is used in sending and receiving e-mail

CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cloud computing is a concept that enables sharingof computing resources rather than having localservers or personal devices to handle applicationWhenever someone uses an online service to sendemail edit documents watch movies or TV listento music play games or store pictures and otherfiles it is likely that cloud computing is making itall possible behind the scene

ADVANTAGES OF CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cost ndash Cloud computing eliminates the capitalexpense of buying hardware and software and settingup and running on-site data centers set up cost ofservers round the clock electricity for power backupthe IT experts for managing the infrastructure

bull Productivity ndash On-site data centers typically require alot of hardware set up software requirements andother time-consuming IT management tasks Cloudcomputing removes the need of many such tasks sothat the IT teams can spend time on achieving moreimportant business goals

bull Performance ndash The bigger cloud computing servicesrun on a worldwide network of secure data centerswhich are regularly upgraded to the latest generationof fast and efficient computing hardware

bull Reliability ndash Cloud computing helps in regular databackup and has provided for facilities for datarecovery as data gets mirrored at multiple redundantsites on the cloud providers network

PROTOCOL

A protocol is a convention or standard that regulates the

operation of devices It can be defined as the set of rules

governing the syntax semantics and synchronization of

communication between hardware software or both

TYPES OF PROTOCOL

bull Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) ndash It is aprotocol that is used to display information on theWorld Wide Web Its main purpose is to provide away to display and retrieve HTML pages It is arequest protocol between clients and server

bull File Transfer Protocol (FTP) ndash It is a clientserverprotocol that helps in transferring or exchanging filesbetween client and server It may be authenticatedwith user name and password

bull Transmission Control ProtocolInternet Protocol(TCPIP) ndash It is a rule governing communication among all the computers on internet

bull Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) ndash It is a standard email protocol that stores email messages on a mail server and allows a user to view and manipulate the message as if they were stored locally on the users computing device

bull Simple Mail Transfer Protocol(SMTP) ndash It is a TCPIP protocol that is used in sending and receiving e-mail

CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cloud computing is a concept that enables sharingof computing resources rather than having localservers or personal devices to handle applicationWhenever someone uses an online service to sendemail edit documents watch movies or TV listento music play games or store pictures and otherfiles it is likely that cloud computing is making itall possible behind the scene

ADVANTAGES OF CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cost ndash Cloud computing eliminates the capitalexpense of buying hardware and software and settingup and running on-site data centers set up cost ofservers round the clock electricity for power backupthe IT experts for managing the infrastructure

bull Productivity ndash On-site data centers typically require alot of hardware set up software requirements andother time-consuming IT management tasks Cloudcomputing removes the need of many such tasks sothat the IT teams can spend time on achieving moreimportant business goals

bull Performance ndash The bigger cloud computing servicesrun on a worldwide network of secure data centerswhich are regularly upgraded to the latest generationof fast and efficient computing hardware

bull Reliability ndash Cloud computing helps in regular databackup and has provided for facilities for datarecovery as data gets mirrored at multiple redundantsites on the cloud providers network

TYPES OF PROTOCOL

bull Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) ndash It is aprotocol that is used to display information on theWorld Wide Web Its main purpose is to provide away to display and retrieve HTML pages It is arequest protocol between clients and server

bull File Transfer Protocol (FTP) ndash It is a clientserverprotocol that helps in transferring or exchanging filesbetween client and server It may be authenticatedwith user name and password

bull Transmission Control ProtocolInternet Protocol(TCPIP) ndash It is a rule governing communication among all the computers on internet

bull Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) ndash It is a standard email protocol that stores email messages on a mail server and allows a user to view and manipulate the message as if they were stored locally on the users computing device

bull Simple Mail Transfer Protocol(SMTP) ndash It is a TCPIP protocol that is used in sending and receiving e-mail

CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cloud computing is a concept that enables sharingof computing resources rather than having localservers or personal devices to handle applicationWhenever someone uses an online service to sendemail edit documents watch movies or TV listento music play games or store pictures and otherfiles it is likely that cloud computing is making itall possible behind the scene

ADVANTAGES OF CLOUD COMPUTING

bull Cost ndash Cloud computing eliminates the capitalexpense of buying hardware and software and settingup and running on-site data centers set up cost ofservers round the clock electricity for power backupthe IT experts for managing the infrastructure

bull Productivity ndash On-site data centers typically require alot of hardware set up software requirements andother time-consuming IT management tasks Cloudcomputing removes the need of many such tasks sothat the IT teams can spend time on achieving moreimportant business goals

bull Performance ndash The bigger cloud computing servicesrun on a worldwide network of secure data centerswhich are regularly upgraded to the latest generationof fast and efficient computing hardware

bull Reliability ndash Cloud computing helps in regular databackup and has provided for facilities for datarecovery as data gets mirrored at multiple redundantsites on the cloud providers network
