CLASS – 8 S.St. Worksheet- 7 (History/Civics)

Lesson : 4 - India in the Eighteenth Century

Part – 2 (Summary)

Important Regional Powers of the Eighteenth Century

The Marathas:

Shivaji united the Marathas politically. Under him, the Marathas put up a strong resistance

against Mughal expansion in the Deccan. Shivaji died in 1680. Shivaji’s sons Shambhaji

and Rajaram died fighting the Mughals. The Mughals captured Shambhji’s son Shahu.

Rajaram’s widow Tara Bai ruled the Marathas from Kohlapur on behalf of her minor son

Shivaji III.

Rise of Peshwas

Bhadur Shah I, who succeeded Aurangzeb in 1707, released Shahu. This resulted in a civil

war over the Maratha throne between Shahu and Shivaji III. Shahu emerged more

powerful with the help of Balaji Vishwanath, a shrewd revenue officer. While Shahu

eatablished his capital at Satara, Shivaji III established his capital at Kohlapur. Constant

warfare between Satara and Kohlapur kept Shahu totally preoccupied. He grew

increasingly dependent on Balaji Vishwanath, whom he made his peshwa, or chief

minister. Gradually, the peshwa became the real ruler of the Marathas.

Balaji Vishwanath secured Mughal recognition for Shahu as the rightful ruler of the

Marathas. Baji Rao I made peace between Satara and Kohlapur. Maratha chiefs like

Sindhia of Gwalior, Bhonsle of Nagpur, Gaekwad of Baroda and Holkar of Indore

extended Maratha control up to the outskirts of Delhi by 1737.

(PESHWA BAJI RAO I)

The Maratha kingdom expanded under Baji Rao I. However, this expansion was mainly carried

out by the personal armies of the Maratha chiefs and not by the peshwa’s troops. By 1737,

Maratha influence extended over Malwa, Gujarat,Bundelkhand and the outskirts of Delhi. Some

of chiefs like Sindhia in Gwalior,Bhonsle in Nagpur, Gaekwad in Baroda and Holkar in Indore

became almost independent of the peshwa’s control. .Baji Rao I captured Salsette and Bassein on

the Konkan Coast from the Portuguese.

In 1757, the Marathas helped the Mughal Emperor by removing the agent posted in Delhi

by Ahmad Shah Abdali. In 1758, they took Sirhind and Lahore from the Afghans. All this

made ba war between Marathas and the Afghans inevitable.

THIRD BATTLE OF PANIPAT(1761):

Ahmad Shah Abdali entered into alliance with the enemies of the Marathas, mainly the

rulers of Rohilkhand and Awadh. Balaji Baji Rao sent an army, which met Abdali’s forces

on the battlefield of Panipat in 1761. Ahmad Shah Abdali easily defeated the Marathas.

Unable to bear the shock of defeat, Balaji Baji Rao died the same year.

(AHMAD SHAH ABDALI)

CAUSES OF MARATHA FAILURE:

The Marathas did not receive any local support. They had made enemies of the local

powers by raiding their territories and had made no effort to win over their loyalty. As a

result, the Maratha army was desperately short of supplies on the eve of the war. The

Marathas also made the mistake of not adopting modern military techniques and weapons.

Besides, they were weakened by infighting among their chiefs.

EVENTS AFTER 1761:

The defeat at Panipat ruined the possibility of the Marathas replacing the Mughals as an

all- India power. This allowed the English East India Company to become a political force

in India. After Madhav Rao I, the peshwa’s power declined.

Mysore:

In Mysore, Hyder Ali, who rose from the position of a mere soldier, took over the

government in 1761. He made Mysore state powerful enough to challenge the British.

(HYDER ALI)

The Sikhs:

In Punjab, the Sikhs rose to prominence towards the end of the eighteenth century. Ranjit

Singh united all the Siks living west of the Satluj and raised army.

(RANJIT SINGH)

EXERCISE:

1) Short Questions:

a) Why was there a civil war among the Marathas?

b) What role did the Maratha chiefs play in territorial expansion?

c) Name some Maratha chiefs who became almost independent of the peshwa’s control.

2) Long questions:

a) The Marathas became a major political force under the peshwas. In this context, answer

the following questions:

i) How did the the peshwa gradually become the real ruler of the Marathas?

ii) Give an account of Maratha expansion under Baji Rao I.

b) Narrate the events that led to the Third Battle of Pnipat. Why did the Maratha fail in the

battle?

CLASS : VIII SCIENCE WORKSHEET-7(PHYSICS)

TOPIC : MATTER

EVAPORATION :

Evaporation is a process by which a liquid changes into vapour. The change of state from liquid

to vapour at all temperatures from the surface of a liquid is called evaporation.

Difference between evaporation and vaporization :

Page 10: ST. XAVIER’S SCHOOLS-CHANDIGARH, PANCHKULA, MOHALI, … · 2020. 8. 27. · ***Point to remember ... Simple past tense 3. Past continuous tense,negative ... After Madhav Rao I,

Explanation of Evaporation by Molecular Model :

In a liquid, the molecules are in motion within its boundary. They collide with each other.

During the collision, some molecules below the surface of liquid acquire sufficient kinetic

energy to overcome the force of attraction of other molecules and their inter-molecular

spacing increases.

Such molecules move to the surface of liquid and they absorb heat from the surrounding so

as to escape out into the atmosphere with the atmospheric air molecules. This process is

called evaporation.

Factors affecting the rate of evaporation :

1) Temperature of liquid : The rate of evaporation depends on the temperature of the liquid. The

rate of evaporation is higher if the temperature of liquid is high.

Example: A wet clothes dries up on a hot day much faster than on a cold day.

2) The area of the exposed surface : The rate of evaporation increases if area of surface exposed

increases.

Example: We often pour tea in a saucer to cool it faster.

3) The nature of liquid: Liquids with low melting point evaporate faster than the liquids having

high melting point.

Example: Alcohol evaporates faster than water when poured on palm.

4) The flow of air : The rate of evaporation increases with increase in amount of air blowing

above the liquid.

More the temperature of a liquid,

more will be the kinetic energy of

molecules , higher will be the

number of molecules escaping from

its surface.

In a volatile liquid, the force of

attraction among molecules is

negligible. Thus, a very small amount of

energy is required to overcome these

forces of attraction. So they escape out

more easily.

More the area of exposed surface,

more will be the no of molecules

escaping out of the surface. As

evaporation occurs among the

molecules on the surface, not in the

interior.

Page 11: ST. XAVIER’S SCHOOLS-CHANDIGARH, PANCHKULA, MOHALI, … · 2020. 8. 27. · ***Point to remember ... Simple past tense 3. Past continuous tense,negative ... After Madhav Rao I,

Example : Blowing on hot food cool it faster.

5) Humidity: The rate of evaporation increases with decrease in humidity.

Example: Wet clothes dry faster in dry summer days than in rainy season..

How does evaporation cause cooling ?

When a liquid changes into vapour, it requires heat. This heat is supplied by the surroundings of

the liquid that results in fall in the temperature (or cooling) in the surroundings.

Applications of evaporation

1) In summer, water gets cooled in an earthen pot.

2) Evaporation of sweat from our body helps to

maintain body temperature at 37OC.

Water from earthen pot seeps out

on the surface through the pores in

the pot and it evaporates.

The heat required for evaporation

is taken from water inside the pot

which therefore gets cooled.

When the sweat evaporates, it

require heat which it takes away

from our body.

As a result, temperature falls to

keep the body at 37OC.

In humid air, the water molecules

present in the air near the surface of

the liquid do not allow the molecules of

the liquid to escape out easily. They

decrease the rate of evaporation.

On blowing air, the air molecules take

away the liquid molecules from the

surface with them and other molecules of

the liquid occupy their place. This

increases the rate of evaporation.

Page 12: ST. XAVIER’S SCHOOLS-CHANDIGARH, PANCHKULA, MOHALI, … · 2020. 8. 27. · ***Point to remember ... Simple past tense 3. Past continuous tense,negative ... After Madhav Rao I,

3) Evaporation of water from wet cloth on the forehead of a patient having fever helps in reducing

fever.

4) A hot cup of tea cools down after sometime due to evaporation.

SUBLIMATION AND DEPOSITION:

Sublimation is the process by which a solid when heated, directly changes into its vapour

without first changing into liquid.

Reverse process for sublimation is solidification or deposition.

Deposition is a process when a vapour (or gas) on cooling changes directly into a solid

without first changing into liquid.

Example: When ammonium chloride, solid carbon dioxide are heated, they directly

change into their vapours and when their vapours are cooled, they change into their solids.

Application of sublimation process: It is used in purification of many sublime substances such

as iodine, camphor, naphthalene, benzoic acid, ammonium chloride.

Experiment:

1. Take a china dish and put mixture of ammonium chloride and sodium chloride into

it.

2. Take a funnel and block its nozzle with a cotton plug and invert it on the china dish.

3. Heat the mixture with a burner gently till white fumes are produced.

Water of the strips evaporates.

During evaporation, water takes

heat from the body of patient .

The body temperature of patient

decreases.

Heat loss happens as the water

evaporates resulting in the cooling

down of the tea.

Observation: On heating, fumes are formed due to sublimation of ammonium

chloride. Its gets condensed and deposits along the cooler part of funnel, i.e., narrow end.

Common salt is left behind in the china dish whereas ammonium chloride can be scraped off from

the neck of the funnel.

Conclusion: Ammonium chloride can be separated from its mixture with common salt by the

process of sublimation.

Questions:

1) Give reasons for the following:

a) Volatile liquids such as alcohol and spirit are stored in tightly closed bottles.

b) Water in a dish evaporates faster than in a bottle.

2) State true or false

a) Evaporation of a liquid causes cooling.

b) Evaporation takes place at a specific constant temperature.

c) Evaporation takes place through out the mass of liquid.

3) Why does the size of naphthalene balls decrease when left open?

4) Give two examples of each:

a) sublime substance.

b) volatile liquid.

5) Explain why in hot summer days water remains cool in earthen pots.

6) Define the following and write one application of each:

a) sublimation

b) evaporation

7) What is the effect of humidity on evaporation?

8) Why is cooling produced on evaporation of a liquid?

Answer Key of Science Worksheet- 6 (Biology)

Q1.What do you mean by ascent of sap?

Ans: The sap which is mixture of water and dissolved minerals , moves in an upward direction

against the gravity to reach the leaves of the plant. This upward movement of sap ( from the root

to the crown ) is called ascent of sap.

2. Write about the forces that contribute in ascent of sap.

Ans: The forces that are responsible for ascent of sap are:

a) Cohesion: It is the mutual attraction between water molecules.

b) Adhesion: It involves attraction of water molecules to the surface ( Surface of elements of

xylem )

3. What is transpiration?

Ans: Loss of water from the arieal parts of plant in the form of water vapour is known as

transpiration.

4. Describe the types of transpiration.

Ans: Based on the region from which transpiration is taking place , it can be of following types:

a) Lenticular transpiration: Lenticels are small openings in the bark when water is lost

through the lenticels, it is called Lenticular transpiration.

b) Cuticular transpiration: Cuticle is the multilayered waxy deposit that generally covers

the leaves of the plants. When water is lost through cuticle , it is called Cuticular

transpiration.

c) Stomatal Transpiration: Stomata are minute pores present on the leaves when water is

lost through stomata, it is called stomatal transpiration.

5. What is the function of stomata and where is it found?

Ans: Stomata helps in diffusion of gases like carbon dioxide and oxygen and also helps in the

process of transpiration. Stomata are found on the leaves of plants. ************************************

SUBJECT – MATHS CLASS – VIII WORKSHEET – 7

(CUBES AND CUBE ROOTS)

INTRODUCTION: Cube of a number is the product of the number by itself three times

CUBE NUMBERS OR PERFECT CUBES

Natural Numbers Cubes

1 1 ×1×1 = 1

2 2×2×2 = 8

3 3×3×3=27

4 4×4×4=64

5 5×5×5=125

6 6×6×6 = 216

7 7×7×7 = 343

8 8×8×8 = 512

9 9×9×9 = 729

10 10×10×10 =1000

So, we can see that 1, 8, 27, 64, 125,…….are the natural numbers which are the cubes of natural

numbers. Such numbers are called Cube Numbers or Perfect Cubes. So you can see that the Cubes

of natural numbers are called cube numbers or perfect cubes.

NOTE: All Natural Numbers are not perfect Cubes.

Page 15: ST. XAVIER’S SCHOOLS-CHANDIGARH, PANCHKULA, MOHALI, … · 2020. 8. 27. · ***Point to remember ... Simple past tense 3. Past continuous tense,negative ... After Madhav Rao I,

To understand this concept better, observe the following example:

(i) Let us consider a cube number 64 and it can be expressed as

64 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 ×2

Observation: 64 can be expressed as the product of triplets of equal prime factors.

Therefore it is a perfect cube number.

(ii) Now consider a non-cube number 192 and it can be expressed as:

192 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 ×2 × 3

Observation: 192 cannot be expressed as the product of triplets of equal prime factors. Therefore it is

not a perfect cube number.

NOTE: A perfect cube can always be expressed as the product of triplets of equal prime factors

Example 1: Is 243 a perfect cube?

Solution: The number 243 can be expressed as:

243 = (3× 3 × 3) × 3 × 3

Since, 3 × 3 left after grouping other 3’s in triplets.

Therefore, 243 cannot be expressed as the product of triplets of equal prime factors.

Hence, 243 is a not a perfect cube.

Example 2: Is 2744 a perfect cube?

Solution: The number 2744 can be expressed as:

2744 = (2× 2 × 2) × (7 × 7 × 7)

Since, 2744 can be expressed as the product of triplets of equal prime factors.

Hence, 2744 is a perfect cube.

Example3: Is 675 is a perfect cube. IF not, find the smallest natural number by which 675 should be

multiplied so that product is a perfect cube.

Solution: The number 675 can be expressed as:

675 = (5× 5) × (3 × 3 × 3)

Since, (5× 5) is left after grouping in triplets,

Therefore, 675 is a not a perfect cube

To make it a perfect cube, 5 should also occur in a group of three, so we need one more 5. In

that case,

675 × 5 = (5 × 5 × 5) × (3 × 3 × 3) = 3375, which is a perfect cube.

Hence, the smallest natural number by which 675 must be multiplied so that product is a

perfect cube is 5.

Example 4: Find the smallest natural number by which 18252 should be multiplied to make it a

perfect cube. Also find the cube root of the product.

Solution: The number 18252 can be expressed as:

Page 16: ST. XAVIER’S SCHOOLS-CHANDIGARH, PANCHKULA, MOHALI, … · 2020. 8. 27. · ***Point to remember ... Simple past tense 3. Past continuous tense,negative ... After Madhav Rao I,

18252 = (2× 2) × (3 × 3 × 3) × (13 × 13)

In this case, prime factor 3 occurs thrice while prime factors 2 and 13 occur twice. Therefore,

the smallest natural number by which the given number must be multiplied so that the product

is a perfect cube is 2 × 13 i.e. 26

Then product, 18252 × 2 × 13 = (2× 2 × 2) × (3 × 3 × 3) × (13 × 13× 13)

i.e. 474552 = 23 × 33 × 133

The cube root of the product = 2 × 3 × 13 = 78

PROPERTIES OF CUBES OF NATURAL NUMBERS

PROPERTY 1: Cubes of odd numbers are odd and cubes of even numbers are even.

PROPERTY 2:

(i) If a number has 1, 4, 5, 6 or 9 in the unit place, then its cube also ends with the same

digits i.e. 1, 4, 5, 6 or 9

(ii) If a number has 2 in the unit’s place, then its cube ends in 8.

(iii) If a number has 8 in the unit’s place, then its cube ends in 2.

(iv) If a number has 3 in the unit’s place, then its cube ends in 7.

(v) If a number has 7 in the unit’s place, then its cube ends in 3.

(vi) If a number has 0 in the unit’s place, then its cube ends in 0.

PROPERTY 3: Cube of a negative integer is always negative.

CHAPTER- OPERATING SYSTEM AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE – ROLE AND

FUNCTIONS

TOPIC : TYPES OF OPERATING SYSTEM

1. SINGLE USER OPERATING SYSTEM

Single User operating system was the initial version of the operating system that

allowed only one user to work with the computer at a time. The most popular Single User

Operating Systems were: Microsoft DOS, Microsoft Windows 3.1, Microsoft Windows

95. Due to their limited features, they are no longer in use nowadays.

2. MULTI-USER OPERATING SYSTEM

Multi-user operating system allows more than one user to use the same computer at the

same time or at different times. Some Operating Systems, which fall in this category are: windows

2000, NT, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Linux, Unix•

Windows 2000 was the version of Windows, which allowed creation of several user accounts on a

single machine.

3. MULTI-PROCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEM

A Multi-Processor system consists of several processors that share a common physical memory. In

this system processors operate under single operating system. It provides higher computing power

and speed that allows to run and work in multiple applications at the same time. Execution of several

tasks by different processors at the same time, increases the system's performance.

4. MULTI-TASKING OPERATING SYSTEM

The ability to perform more than one task together at one time is called Multi-tasking. An operating

system, which is capable of doing multiple tasks or processes while using common processing

resource' ie using only One CPU is called a Multi-Tasking operating system. It switches from one

program to another so quickly that it gives the appearance of executing all programs at the same time.

Today, most operating systems fall under this category. Examples are: Unix, Linux, Windows XP,

Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, etc.

5. MULTI-THREADING OPERATING SYSTEM

These operating systems allow different parts of a software program to run simultaneously. The

feature of multi. threading can delay the execution response of certain processes. For example, if you

host a Game server on LAN, your friends will utilise different parts of the same game by connecting

to your machine at the same time, All resources will be utilised from your machine, which can be a

performance degrading factor. The common examples of such operating systems are: Windows

NT/2000, Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Unix, Linux, etc.

6. RTOS (REAL TIME OPERATING SYSTEM)

RTOS is designed to handle real life scenarios and problems. Such operating systems have the

capability to prioritise the processes, minimise execution time, and work independently with no

interdependencies. Real time operating system is used when the time span required to react to an

input is rigid and time bound. Even microsecond of delay will cause the system to fail. Examples are:

Air traffic control, Robots, Weapon systems, and Industrial control systems.

There are two types of Real Time Operating Systems:

Hard Real-time systems: These systems guarantee that critical tasks are completed in time.

Soft Real-time systems: These systems are less restrictive. Examples are: Undersea exploration,

Planetary rover: and Virtual reality.

7. DISTRIBUTED OPERATING SYSTEM

Distributed operating system runs on a set of computers that are located in different geographical are:

interconnected by a network. It controls these interconnected systems and makes them appear as a

computer. It allows all the linked machines to access data and software, and the process takes over the

common network from different computers, irrespective of their location on the globe.
