Class 7 Chapter 13 Motion and Time Notes

1) The document defines various physics concepts related to motion including motion, speed, distance, displacement, rest, amplitude, time period, and oscillation. 2) It discusses Galileo Galilei's discovery that the time period of a pendulum's swing remains constant and depends on the oscillation speed and weight of the bob. 3) Different types of clocks from medieval ages are identified including sundials, sand clocks, and water clocks. Speedometers and odometers are also defined.

1) Motion-> The moving of objects with respect to time

and space.
2) Speed-> The distance covered in a unit of time.
3) Distance-> The total area covered by a moving object.
4) Displacement-> Minimum distance between two points.
5) Rest-> When there is no change in the position with
respect to time and space.
6) Amplitude-> The maximum displacement of an object
from its mean position.
7) Time period-> Time taken by a pendulum to complete
Time taken
one oscillation.No. .
of oscillations
8) Oscillation-> Movement of pendulum from B to A, A to
C and then back to B.

Bob- A small metallic ball in Position A Position C


the pendulum which is
suspended from a rigid Position B
stand by thread

9)

10) Full moon to next full moon-> Month, One sunrise


to next sunrise-> Day
11) Unit of time-> Seconds, Unit of speed-> m/s, Unit
of distance-> metre. All units should be written in
singular.
12) Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) discovered that the time
period of a pendulum remains constant. He was once at
a church and saw that the pendulum there had a time
period same as his pulse rate and found by
experimenting that pendulum always take the same
time for every oscillation. The time period of pendulum
depends on->
a. Oscillation speed
b. Weight of bob
13) Microsecond-> 0.000001 second or millionth of a
second, Nanosecond-> 0.000000001 second or billionth
of a second.

14)

15) Types of clocks in medieval ages->


a. Sundial-> shows shadows from the sun and tells
the time.
b. Sand clock-> acts as a stopwatch for a particular
time.
c. Water clock
16) Speedometer-> The part in dashboard of a car
which tells the speed of the car.
17) Odometer-> The part in car which tells the total
distance travelled by the car.
18) Graph-> Graphical representation of any collection
of value.
19) We can quickly derive information from graphs.
Features of experimental data can be seen visually.
20) We should always utilize the size of paper on which
we are making graphs, because it helps in choosing the
scale efficiently. Always know the scale accurately and
the difference between the 1st and last observation.
