ELECTRIC CURRENT AND ITS EFFECT

ELECTRIC CURRENT

The electric current is a flow of electric charges (calledelectrons) in a conductor (metal wire). It is the amountof electric charge passing through a given point ofconductor in one second. If a charge of Q coulombsflows through a conductor in time t second, then themagnitude of the electric current I flows through it isgiven by :

tQ

I

The S.I. unit of charge is coulomb (C)

1C = Charge of 6.25 × 1018 electrons.

(a) Unit of Electric Current :

The S.I. unit of current is Ampere. When one coulombof charge flows through any cross-section of aconductor in 1 second, the electric current flowingthrough it is said to be 1 ampere.

A1

Instrument used to measure current is calledammeter. It should have a very low resistance. It isconnected in series in the circuit.

CLASSIFICATION OF ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT

(a) Open Electric Circuit :

An electric circuit through which no electric currentflows is known as open electric circuit. The electriccircuit will be open circuit if the plug of the key is takenout or if the connecting wires break from any point.

ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS

The path of flow of electricity from one terminal of the

cell and returning to the other is called an electrical

circuit.

For flow of electricity, the circuit must be made of con-

ductors. Insulators in the path of electrical circuits

makes the circuit incomplete.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAMS AND CIRCUIT SYMBOLS

Scientists use certain symbols to draw electrical

circuits. An electrical circuit drawn using these

symbols is called a circuit diagram. The symbols used

to indicate different components are called circuit

symbols. Figure shows some components and their

circuit symbols.

NOTE : Notice that the key or switch can be placedanywhere in the circuit.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CELL AND BATTERY

The positive terminal of one cell is connected to the

negative terminal of the next cell. Such a combination

of two or more cells is called a battery.

+ �BettaryCell

+ �

Cells connected in series i.e. battery

If two cells are connected in series as in the above

case, their combined strength is the sum of their

respective strengths. In this case, the combined

strength is 1.5 V + 1.5 V = 3 V. Similarly, if three identical

cells, each of strength 1.5 V, are connected in series,

their combined strength will be

1.5 V + 1.5 V + 1.5 V = 4.5 V

EFFECTS OF ELECTRIC CURRENT

(a) Heating Effect of Current :

The wire gets hot when an electric current passesthrough it. This is the heating effect of the electriccurrent.

Example :

(i) Electric Heater :

(ii) Electric Iron :

The amount of heat produced in a wire depends on itsmaterial, length and thickness. Thus, for differentrequirements, the wires of different requirements, thewires of different materials and different lengths andthicknesses are used.

The filament of an electric bulb gets heated to such ahigh temperature that it starts glowing.

FUSE

A fuse is a small piece of wire made of lead and tin andmounted in porcelain holder. It is placed in the path ofmain electric cables that enters the house as well asin each sub unit of house. As soon as an excess ofelectricity flows through the wire, the wire gets heatedup and melts, thus preventing further flow of electricity.

Fuse� Use of fuse : To protect our electrical appliances from

excess electric current, which may otherwise burn theappliance.

(b) Chemical Effect of Current (Electroplating)

When an electric current is passed through watercontaining sulphuric acid, the water breaks up into itscomponents hydrogen and oxygen. Therefore an

PAGE # 3

electric current can cause a chemical change. Thiseffect of electric current is used in electroplating .Electroplating :The method of plating one metal objectwith another metal by means of electricity is calledelectroplating. The metal which is to be electroplatedis made cathode and the metal to be deposited ismade anode while the soluble salt of the same metalserves as the electrolyte. When a current is passed, athin film of metal is deposited on the metal, whichbecomes electroplated.Eg. : Let we are having a steel razor blade is to beelectroplated with copper.

� Aim : To plate a stainless steel razor blade with copper.

� Materials required : Glass beaker, copper sulphatesolution, two pieces of connecting wire (50 cm long), acell, stainless steel razor blade.

� Method : Remove the insulation from the ends of bothwires. Tie one end of a wire to the stainless steel razorblade and tape the other bare end to the negativeterminal of the cell. Tape one end of the other wire tothe positive terminal of the cell and dip its other endinto the copper scrub the razor blade clean and dip it inthe solution.

After electricity passes through the circuit for some time,you will find a reddish-brown deposit on the blade.This is the coating of copper. If you continue this forsome more time, you will find that your blade is slowlygetting plated with copper.

(c) Magnetic Effect of Current :

We know that a moving magnet can generate an electriccurrent. Also we can say that electric current canproduce a magnetic effect. A coil, through which whenan electric current flows behave like a magnet with itstwo poles.

Eg. : Electric bell shows magnetic effect of current.

(i) Electromagnets :

� Aim : To make our own magnet with electricity.

� Materials required : Iron nail, cell, connecting wires.

� Method : Remove the insulation from each end of thewire. Coil the wire tightly around the nail as shown infigure and tape the two ends of the wire to the twoterminals of the cell. Now hold the iron nail over somecommon pins.

The coil in the above activity behaves like a magnetwhen electric current flows through it. When the electriccurrent is switched off, the coil losses its magnetism.Such coils are called electromagnets.

(ii) Factors which effect the strength of electromagnet :

(A) magnetic effect of current depends on number ofturns.

(B) magnetic effect of current depends the value ofcurrent.

(C) magnetic effect of current depends on the nature ofcore inside the coil.

ELECTRICAL BELL

When the switch of an electric bell is pressed, the circuitis completed and current flows through the coils of theelectromagnet. It gets magnetised and attracts the ironstrip towards itself. This brings the hammer in contactwith the gong and the sound of the bell is heard. Dueto the displacement of the iron strip from its originalposition, it loses contact with the contact screw due towhich the circuit of the electromagnet breaks. Currentstops flowing and the electromagnet loses itsmagnetism. Hence, the iron strip comes back to itsoriginal position, which once again completes thecircuit. The entire process is repeated as long as theswitch is kept pressed. The hammer would strike thegong again and again and the ringing of the bell wouldbe heard.

An intermittent (uni-drectional) current flows throughan electric bell, when it rings

CALCULATE THE COST OF ELECTRICITY

Commercial unit of electric energy : Kilowatt - hour(kWh) :

Electric energy is required to run the electric lamps,heaters, refrigerators, televisions and other electricappliances. The department of electricity sells theelectric energy to the consumers in units calledkilowatt-hours (kWh). If our electricity bill shows that wehave paid for 10 units, then it means the electricappliances of our house have consumed 10kilowatt-hours. So, 1 unit = 1 kWh.A kilowatt-hour is the amount of electric energy used by1000 Watt electric appliance (say a heater) when itoperates for one hour.

kWh is also known as �Board of Trade Unit� (B.O.T.)

(e) Relation between kWh and Joule :1 kWh = 1000 Wh( 1 kW = 1000 W)

Now1 W = 1 Js�1 and 1h = 60 × 60 s = 3600 s.

1 kWh = 1000 Js-1 × 3600 s = 3600000 J = 3.6 × 106 J

1 kWh = 3.6 × 106 J

3. Calculate the cost of electricity for a house in which 7bulbs of 100 Watt each and 3 fans of 60 Watt each areused for 5 hours a day, for a period of 30 days, if thecost of one unit is Rs. 5.

Sol. Each bulb of 100W consumes 100 Watt hour of energy,when used for 1 hour.7 bulbs of 100W each when used for 1 hour consume,7 × 100 = 700 Watt hour or 700 Wh of energy.

Thus, 7 bulbs of 100W each when used for 5 hourseach day consume, 700 × 5 = 3500 Wh or 3.5 KWh.

In this way, we can calculate the total electricity used in30 days i.e. Total electricity consume, [(7 × 100) + (3 × 60)] × (5 × 30) = (700 + 180) × 5 × 30 =

132000 Wh = 132 KWh.If the cost of each unit is Rs. 5.0, then the total cost =132 × 5 = Rs. 660.

ELECTRICAL CELLS

Electrical cells are the sources of electric current.Electrical cells are of two types primary and secondary.Voltaic, Daniel and dry cells are examples of primarycells, while Edison cell, lead-acid accumulator areexample of secondary cells.

(a) Primary Cells :

The cells which cannot be charged again and againare known as primary cells.

Dry Cell : The outer case of the cell is made of zinc. Thecylindrical sides are covered with thick Cardboard orpaper, while the bottom which is the negative terminalis bare. Inside the zinc container, is a moist paste of

ammonium chloride. A carbon rod is placed at thecentre of the zinc container with a brass knob protrudingout at the top. This is the positive terminal of the cell. Itis surrounded by a closely packed mixture of graphiteand manganese dioxide in a muslin bag. The top issealed to avoid evaporation of moisture, but leaving asmall hole for the escape of ammonia gas.

The strength of a fresh dry cell is 1.5 V. Cells of thiskind which become useless once the chemicals insidethem are used up are known as primary cells.

(b) Secondary Cell :

Cells which are reusable and rechargable.

Lead accumulator (Reusable and rechargeable cells) :

Some cells can be reused by recharging them from anexternal electrical source. Such cells are calledsecondary cells, storage cells or accumulators. Thesecondary cell is one which consists of a vessel madeof a hard rubber, glass or celluloid, containing dilutesulphuric acid. It are immersed two lead grids, onecontaining lead dioxide (positive terminal) and the othermade up of lead (negative terminal). Six such storagecells connected in series makes up your motor carbattery. Each cell has a strength of about 2V, togetherthey make up 12V. After the cell is used up, it can berecharged and reused.

GENERAL CHEMISTRY

INTRODUCTION

Chemistry is defined as that branch of science whichdeals with the composition and properties of matterand the changes that matter undergoes by variousinteractions.

Anything that occupies space, has mass and offersresistance is called matter.

ATOM

An atom is the smallest particle of an element thatcan take part in a chemical reaction. The size of anatom is indicated by its radius which is called "atomicradius" (radius of an atom). Atomic radius ismeasured in "nanometres"(nm).1 metre = 109 nanometres or 1nm = 10-9 m.Hydrogen atom is the smallest atom of all having anatomic radius 0.037nm or 0.37 Å (1 Å = 10�10 metre)Maharishi Kanad told that if we keep dividing matter(padartha) on and on, we will get the smallest particlecalled as parmanu (which was later termed as atomby John Dalton).

SYMBOL

"A symbol is a brief representation of the name of theelement". Berzelius, a Swedish chemist, was the firstto introduce the system of using letters as symbols

for the elements.

(a) Symbols may be derived from the first letter of theEnglish name of the element.e.g. Hydrogen (H), Oxygen (O), Nitrogen (N) etc.

(b) Symbols may be derived from the first letter andanother significant letter of the name of element.e.g. Aluminium (Al), Bromine (Br), Calcium (Ca) etc.

(c) Symbols may be derived from their Latin namesof the elements.e.g. Copper (Cuprum-Cu), Iron (Ferrum-Fe), Silver(Argentum-Ag), Sodium (Natrium- Na), Potassium(Kalium -K),Gold ( Aurum -Au) etc.

DALTON'S ATOMIC THEORY

(i) Matter consists of small indivisible particles calledatoms.

(ii) All atoms of an element are identical.

(iii) The atoms of an element are different from theatoms of any other element.

(iv) A compound is formed by combination of atomsof two or more elements in simple ratio.

e.g. Ratio between H and O in water is 2 : 1 by volume.

(v) Atoms take part in chemical reactions.

(vi) Atoms can neither be created nor be destroyed.

MERITS

(i) Dalton�s theory explains the law of conservation of

mass and law of constant proportion.

(ii) Atoms of elements take part in chemical reactionthis is true till today.

DEMERITS

(i) The atom is no longer supposed to be indivisible.

(ii) He could not explain that why do atoms of sameelement combined with each other.

(iii) Atoms of the same element may not necessarilybe identical in all aspects. e.g. isotopes.

(iv) Atoms of different elements may not necessarilybe different in all aspects. e.g. isobars.

MODERN ATOMIC THEORY

(a) Structure of an atom :

An atom consists of two parts -

(i) Nucleus : Nucleus is situated in the centre of anatom.

All the protons & neutrons are situated in the nucleus,therefore, the entire mass of an atom is almostconcentrated in the nucleus.The overall charge of nucleus is positive due to thepresence of positively charged protons.The protons & neutrons are collectively callednucleons.The radius of the nucleus of an atom is of the order of10�13 cm and its density is of the order of 1015 g/cm3.

(ii) Extra nuclear region : In extra nuclear partelectrons are present which revolve around thenucleus in orbits of fixed energies.

The maximum number of electrons that can beaccommodated in a shell is given by the formula2n2.(n = number of shells i.e. 1,2,3 -------)

ATOMIC NUMBER (Z)

Z = no. of protons = no. of electrons (in electrically

neutral atoms).

e.g.13

Al Z = 13

p = 13

e = 13

Each element has a unique atomic number.

MASS NUMBER (A)

A = no. of protons + no. of neutrons (total no. of

nucleons)

A = p + n

A = Z + n

e.g. Al2713

Z = 13

A = 27

p = 13

e = 13

n = A � Z

= 27 � 13 = 14

(a) Atomic Mass of an Element :

Actual masses of the atoms of the elements are very,

very small. For example, one atom of hydrogen (H)

has a mass of 1.673 x 10-24 gram. To avoid the

inconvenience in using such small and complicated

figures in our calculations, it was necessary to define

atomic mass in such a way that we get simple figures

for them. Carbon-12 atom is that atom of carbon which

has 6 protons and 6 neutrons in its nucleus, so that

its mass number is 12.

Carbon-12 atom has been assigned an atomic mass

of exactly 12 atomic mass units, written as 12 u.

Definition of atomic mass : Atomic mass express as

to how many time mass of an atom of an element is

heavier than12

1th mass of carbon -12 atom.

Note :

Atomic Mass Unit (u) = One-twelfth the mass of a

Carbon-12 atom.

1u = 1.6605 × 10�24 g.

One atomic mass unit (1u) is defined as exactly one-

twelfth the mass of an atom of Carbon-12.The atomic

mass of an element is the relative mass of its atom

as compared with the mass of a Carbon-12 atom

taken as 12 units.

The arrangement of electrons in different shells is

known as the electronic configuration of the element.

If the outermost shell has its full quota of 8 electrons

it is said to be an octet. If the first shell has its full

quota of 2 electrons, it is said to be duplet.

(c) Significance of Electronic Configuration :

(i) Electronic configuration of an atom helps us tounderstand the chemical reactivity of the element.

(ii) When the outermost shell of an atom is completelyfilled as per Bohr-Bury scheme then the element isunreactive.(iii) When the outermost shell of an atom is notcompletely filled according to Bohr-Bury rule, theelement is reactive. An atom can get the noble gas electronicconfiguration in three ways -� By losing one or more electrons.

� By gaining one or more electrons.

� By sharing one or more electrons with other atom or

atoms.

The outermost shell of an atom is known as thevalence shell. The electrons present in the valenceshell of an atom are known as valence electrons.The remainder of the atom i.e. the nucleus and otherelectrons is called the core of the atom. Electronspresent in the core of an atom are known as coreelectrons.e.g.The electronic configuration of the sodium (Na) atomis :-Na (11) K L M

2 8 1

Thus, valence electrons in Na atom = 1 and coreelectrons in Na atom = 2 + 8 = 10

(a) Valency :

Valency of an element is the combining capacity ofthe atoms of the element with atoms of the same ordifferent elements.

The valency of an element = number of valenceelectrons(when number of valence electrons are from 1 to 4)The valency of an element = 8� number of valence

electrons. (when number of valence electrons aremore than 4)

(b) Variable Valency :

Certain elements (metals and non - metals ) exhibitmore than one valency.(i) Among the metals iron, copper, silver etc. showvariable valency. For lower valency a suffix -ous andfor higher valency a suffix -ic is attached at the end ofthe name of the metal.e.g.Ferrous = Fe+2

Ferric = Fe+3

(ii) Among the non - metals nitrogen, phosphorus,sulphur etc. show variable valency.

(c) How Do Atoms Exist ?

The atoms of only a few elements called noble gases(such as helium, neon, argon and krypton etc.) arechemically unreactive and exist in the free state (assingle atoms). Atoms of most of the elements arechemically very reactive and do not exist in the freestate (as single atoms).Atoms usually exist in two ways:(i) in the form of ions and(ii) in the form of molecules

When atoms form molecules or ions, they becomestable (because in doing so they acquire the stable

electron arrangement of noble gases).

IONS

The charged particles formed by an atom on the gainor loss of one or more electron(s) are called ions.

Cation Anion

Ion

(a) Cation

The loss of an electron by an atom leads to theformation of a cation.e.g. Na � e� Na+

11e� 10e�

(b) Anion :

The gain of an electron by an atom leads to formationof an anion.e.g. Cl + e� Cl�

17e� 18e�

PAGE # 10

RADICALS

A molecule of an inorganic compound is made up oftwo electrically charged species which are known asradicals.Types of radicals :

(a) On basis of charge :

MOLECULES

A molecule is an electrically neutral group of two (ormore) atoms chemically bonded together by meansof attractive forces.

OrA molecule is the smallest particle of a substance(element or compound) which has the properties ofthat substance and can exist in the free state.Molecules can be formed either by the combinationof atoms of the "same element" or of "differentelements".

There are two types of molecules: molecules ofelements and molecules of compounds.

(a) Molecules of Elements :

The molecule of an element contains two (or more)similar atoms chemically bonded together. Forexample, a molecule of hydrogen contains 2hydrogen atoms combined together and it is writtenas H2 representing Hydrogen gas. Similarly, Ozonegas has 3 oxygen atoms combined together, so ozoneexists in the form of O3. The noble gases like helium,neon, argon and krypton etc., exist as single atomsHe, Ne, Ar and Kr respectively. So, their atoms andmolecules are just the same.

(b) Molecules of Compounds :

The molecule of a compound contains two (or more)different types of atoms chemically bondedtogether.For example, molecule of hydrogen chloride(HCl) contains one atom of hydrogen (H) chemicallybonded with one atom of chlorine (Cl). Some moreexamples of the molecules of compounds are : sulphurdioxide (SO2), methane (CH4) and ammonia (NH3).

Note :

Every compound is a molecule, but every molecule isnot a compound.

(c) Atomicity:

The number of atoms present in one molecule of anelement or compound is called its atomicity. Forexample, the atomicity of noble gases is 1, that ofhydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen etc. is 2 each and of ozoneis 3. Thus, noble gases, hydrogen and ozone arerespectively monoatomic, diatomic, and triatomicmolecules.

Note :Atomicity of phosphorus is 4 and sulphur is 8.

Note :A compound which consists of molecules and notions, is called a molecular compound.

CHEMICAL FORMULA

Molecule of an element or a compound may berepresented by symbols of the elements present inone molecule of the compound. It is known as achemical formula.

E.g. HCl is the formula of hydrogen chloride and NaCl isthat of sodium chloride.

(a) Significance of a Chemical Formula :

(i) Names of the elements present in the compound.(ii) Number of atoms of each element.(iii) Molecular weight of the compound.(iv) The relative proportion of weights of the elements.

(b) Writing a Chemical Formula :

Step-IWrite the symbol of the positive ion or the radical tothe left and that of the negative ion or radical to theright.

Step-IIPut the valence number of each radical or the ion onits top right. Divide the valence number by the highestcommon factor, if any, to get a simple ratio. Now ignorethe (+) and (�) signs. Interchange the valence

numbers of radicals or ions.

Step-IIIShift the valence numbers to the lower right side ofthe radical or ion. If the compound radical receivesnumber more than 1, enclose it within brackets. Donot enclose simple radicals within brackets.

MOLECULAR MASS

The molecular mass of a substance may be defined

as the relative mass of its molecule as compared to

the mass of an atom of carbon (carbon-12) taken as

12 units.

OR

Molecular mass expresses as to how many times a

molecule of a substance is heavier than 1/12th of the

mass of an atom of carbon (carbon-12).

Eg. A molecule of water is 18 times heavier than

1/12th of the mass of carbon atom. Therefore, the

molecular mass of water is 18u. Similarly, the

molecular mass of CO2 is 44u.

Calculation : The molecular mass is equal to sum of

the atomic masses of all the atoms present in one

molecule of the substance.

Eg. The molecular mass of Sulphuric Acid (H2SO4)

can be calculated as follows:

Molecular mass of H2SO4 = Mass of 2 H atoms +

Mass of 1 S atom + Mass of 4 O atoms

= (2 x 1) + (1 x 32) + (4 x 16) = 2 + 32 + 64 = 98u.

Thus, the molecular mass of Sulphuric acid is 98u.

SOME RESULTS ON RATIONAL NUMBERS

(i) Every integer is a rational number but a rational

number need not be an integer.

Explanation : We know that

and so on. Also. � 1 = 11

and so on.

(ii) Every fraction is a rational number but a rational

number need not be a fraction .

We know that 5

fraction because its denominator is not a natural

number.

(iii) A rational number qp

is said to be in the standard

form if q is a positive integer and the integers qp

have

no common divisor other than 1.

Ex.1 Find whether the following rational numbers are in thelowest form or not.

(i) 7917

(ii) 32024

Sol. (i) We observe that 17 and 79 have no common factor,i.e., their HCF is 1.

Therefore, 7917

is in the lowest form.

(ii) We have,24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 and 320 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 5

Thus, HCF of 14 and 320 is 2 × 2 × 2 = 8.

Therefore, 32024

is not in the lowest form.

Ex.2 Express each of the following rational numbers to thelowest form.

(i) 1612

(ii) 7260

Sol. (i) We have,12 = 2 × 2 × 3 and 16 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

HCF of 12 and 16 is 2 × 2 = 4.

So, 1612

is not in lowest form.

Dividing numerator and denominator by 4, we have

1612

= 416412

=

43

43

is the lowest form of 1612

.

(ii) We have60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 and 72 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3

HCF of 60 and 72 is 2 × 2 × 3 = 12

Dividing numerator and denominator of 7260

by 12.

We get 65

REPRESENTATION OF RATIONAL NUMBERS ON REALLINE :Draw any line. Take a point 0 on it. Call it 0 (zero). Setoff equal distances on the right as well as on the left of0. Such a distance is known as a unit length.Clearly, the points A, B, C, D, E represents the integers1, 2, 3, 4, 5 respectively and the points A', B', C', D', E',represents the integers � 1, � 2, � 3, � 4, � 5 respectively.

BA C D EOA'B'C'D'E'

-5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5

Thus, we may represent any integer by a point on thenumber line. Clearly, every positive integer lies to theright of 0 and every negative integer lies to the left of 0.Similarly we can represent rational numbers. Considerthe folllowing examples :

Ex.3 Represent 5

13and

513

on the number line.

Sol. Draw a line. Take a point O on it, Let it represent 0.

Now, 53

253

25

13 .

From 0, set off unit distances OA,AB and BC to the rightof O. Clearly, the points A, B and C represent theintegers 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Now, take 2 units OAand AB, and divide the third unit BC into 5 equal parts.Take 3 parts out of these 5 parts to reach at a point P.

Then the point P represents the rational number 5

13.

C' P' B' A' O A B P C

-13/5 -2 -1 0 1 2 313/5

Again, from O, set off unit distances to the left. Letthese segments be OA', A' B', B' C', etc. Then, clearlythe points A', B' and C' represent the integers �1, � 2,

� 3 respectively.

Now,

53

2513

Take 2 full unit lengths to the left of O. Divide the thirdunit B'C' into 5 equal parts.Take 3 parts out of these 5 parts to reach a point P'.

Then, the point P' represents the rational number .513

Thus, we can represent every rational number by apoint on the number line.

Some important notes :

(i) Every rational number represented by a point on thenumber line is greater than every rational numberrepresented by points on its left.

(ii) Every rational number represented by a point onthe number line is less than every rational numberrepresented by points on its right.

COMPARING TWO RATIONAL NUMBERS

Comparing two rational numbersIn order to compare any two rational numbers, we canuse the following steps :

Step I Obtain the given rational numbers.

Step II Write the given rational numbers so that theirdenominators are positive.

Step III Find the LCM of the positive denominators ofthe rational numbers obtained in step II.

Step IV Express each rational number (obtained instep II) with the LCM (obtained in step III) as commondenominator.

Step V Compare the numerators of rational numbersobtained in step IV. The number having greaternumerator is the greater rational number.

Ex.4 Which of the two rational numbers 53

and 32

is

greater ?

Sol. Clearly, 53

is a positive rational number and 32

is a

negative rational number. We know that every positive

rational number is greater than every negative rational

number.

53

> 32

.

Ex.5 Which of the two rational numbers 75

and 52

is greater ?

Sol. Clearly, denominators of the given rational numbers

are positive. The denominators are 7 and 5. The LCM

of 7 and 5 is 35. So, first express each rational number

with 35 as common denominator.

75

= 5755

=

3525

and 53

= 7573

Now, compare the numerators of these rational

numbers.

Ex.6 Which of the two rational numbers 94

and 125

is

greater ?

Sol. First write each one of the given rational numbers with

positive denominator.

Clearly, denominator of 94

is positive. The

denominator of 125

is negative.

So, express it with positive denominator as follows

125

= )1()12()1(5

Thus, the given rational numbers with positivedenominators are :

107

, 85

, 32

Now, LCM of the denominators 10, 8 and 3 is :2 × 2 × 5 × 2 × 3 = 120

Now write the numbers so that they have a commondenominator 120 as follows :

107

, 85

= 158155

Ex.8 A car is moving at an average speed of 3654

km/h.

How much distance will it cover in 721

hours ?

Sol. Distance covered by the car in 1 hour = 36 54

km

= 5

184km.

Distance covered by the car in 721

5184

km

= 276 km.

Hence, the required distance is 276 km.

Ex.9 The product of two rational numbers is 98�

Insertion of Rational Numbers Between Two GivenRational Numbers :Between any two rational numbers infinitely many

rational numbers can be inserted.

Ex.10 Find some rational numbers lying between two given

rational numbers, say between 52

and 53

.

Sol. The four rational numbers 51

and 52

lie

between 52

and 53

.

If required, we can insert more rational numbers

between 52

and 53

by the technique as discussed

below.

The rational numbers52

and 53

can also be written

as 5020

and 5030

respectively

Clearly, 5019

DEFINITIONS

Equation : A statement of equality involving one or more

variables (literals) is called an equation.

Linear equation in one variable : An equation involving

only one literal number (variable) with the highest

power one is called a linear equation in one variable.

Standard form of a linear equation in x is ax + b = 0,

where a, b R and a 0.

For example : 3x � 7 = 5, 4x

+ 5 = 3, 3x � 2y = 7

and 2x

+ 3x

= 4 are linear equations.

SOLVING AN EQUATION

Property - 1 : We can add the same number to both

sides of the equation;

Ex.1 Solve the equation x � 7 = � 2 and check the result.

Sol. We have, x � 7 = � 2.

In order to solve this equation, we have to get x by itself

on the L.H.S. to get x by itself on the L.H.S., We need to

shift � 7. This can be done by adding 7 to both sides of

the given equation. Thus,

x � 7 = � 2

x � 7 + 7 = � 2 + 7 [Adding 7 to both sides]

x + 0 = 5 [ � 7 + 7 = 0 and � 2 + 7 = 5]

x = 5

Thus, x = 5 is the solution of the given equation.

L.H.S. = 5 � 7 = � 2 and R.H.S. = � 2

Thus, when x = 5, we have L.H.S. = R.H.S.

Property - 2 : We can subtract the same number from

both sides of the equation.

Ex.2 Solve the equation x + 4 = � 2 and check the result.

Sol. In order to solve this equation, we have to obtain x by

itself on L.H.S. To get x by itself on L.H.S., we need to

shift 4. This can be done by subtracting 4 from both

sides of the given equation.

Thus, x + 4 = � 2

x + 4 � 4 = � 2 � 4 [Subtracting 4 from both sides]

x + 0 = � 6 [ 4 � 4 = 0 and � 2 � 4 = � 6]

x = � 6

Thus, x = � 6 is the solution of the given equation.

LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE

Property - 3 : We can multiply both sides of the equation

by the same non-zero number.

Ex.3 Solve the equation 12y

= 48 and check the result.

Sol. In order to solve this equation, we have to get y by itselfon L.H.S. To get y by itself on L.H.S., we have to remove12 from L.H.S. This can be done by multiplying bothsides of the equation by 12 thus, we have

12y

= 48

12y

× 12 = 48 × 12 [Multiplying both sides by 12]

y = 576

Check : Putting, y = 576 in the given equation, we get

L.H.S. = 12576

= 48 and R.H.S. = 48.

Thus, for y = 567, we have L.H.S. = R.H.S

(iv) We can divide both sides of the equation by thesame non-zero number.

Ex.4 Solve the equation 32

x = 18 and check the result.

Sol. We have,

32

x = 18

Multiplying both sides by 23

= 18 ×23

32

× 23

× x = 27

x = 27Thus, x = 27 is the solution of the given equation.

Check Putting x = 27 in the given equation, we get

L.H.S. = 32

× 27 = 18 and R.H.S. = 18

Thus, for x = 27, we have L.H.S. = R.H.S.

Property - 4 : In an equation, we can drop a term fromone side and put it on the other side with the oppositesign. This process is known as transposition.

Ex.5 Solve : 3(x + 3) � 2 (x � 1) = 5 (x � 5).

Sol. We have,3(x + 3) � 2(x � 1) = 5(x � 5)

3x + 9 � 2x + 2 = 5x � 25

[Expanding brackets on both side] 3x � 2x + 9 + 2 = 5x � 25

x + 11 = 5x � 25

[Simplifying L.H.S. and R.H.S. separately] � 4x = � 36

x = 9

APPLICATIONS OF LINEAR EQUATIONS

Ex.6 If 7 is subtracted from five times a number, the result

is 63. Find the number.

Sol : Let the required number be x. Then,

Five times x = 5x

When 7 is subtracted from five times x, we get 5x � 7.

It is given that when 7 is subtracted from five times x,

the result is 63. So, we obtain the following equation :

5x � 7 = 63.

We have,

5x � 7 = 63

5x = 63 + 7 [On transposing � 7 to R.H.S.]

5x = 70

5x5

= 5

70[Dividing both sides by 5]

x = 14.

Hence, the required number is 14.

Ex.7 The sum of two consecutive numbers is 53. Find the

numbers.

Sol. Let one number be x. Then, the next consecutive number

is x + 1. It is given that the sum of two consecutive

numbers is 53. So, we obtain the following equation :

x + (x + 1) = 53

2x + 1 = 53

2x = 53 � 1 [On transposing 1 on R.H.S.]

2x = 52

2x2

= 2

52[Dividing both sides by 2]

x = 26

One number = 26

Another number = 26 + 1 = 27.

Ex.8 Solve : 4x � 3 = 2x + 5.

Sol. 4x � 3 = 2x + 5

4x � 2x = 5 + 3

2x = 8

x = 28

x = 4

Verification : Putting x = 4 in both sides, we get

L.H.S.

= 4x � 3

= 4 × 4 � 3

= 16 � 3 = 13

R.H.S.

= 2x + 5

= 2 × 4 + 5

= 8 + 5

= 13

Since R.H.S = L.H.S it shows that solution is correct.

Ex.9 Solve : 4

1x3 �

35x2

= 25� 2x.

Sol.4

1x3 �

35x2

= 25� 2x

9x � 3 � 8x � 20 = 30 � 24x

9x � 8x + 24x = 30 + 3 + 20

x = 2553

= 2253

Sol.1x25x3

=

5 (3x + 5) = 2 (2x � 1) [Cross multiplication] 15x + 25 = 4x � 2

x = 1127

x = � 2115

50x + 40x = 9 90x = 9

� First living cell was discovered by A.V. Leeuwenhoek.

� The term protoplasm was coined by Purkinje in 1839.

� Protoplasm was discovered by �Felix Dujardin� andnamed as sarcode.

� Protoplasm consistency differs under differentconditions .t exists in sol-gel states.

� Protoplasm is an aggregate of various chemicals suchas water, ions, salts and other organic molecules likeproteins, carbohydrates, fats, nucleic acids, vitaminsetc.

� Living beings are divided into two group on the basisof number of cells.

(i) Unicellular : Living organisms are composed ofsingle cell, e.g.Amoeba, Euglena, Chlamydomonas,Paramoecium.

CELL

(ii) Multicellular : Living organisms are composed ofmany cells, e.g. Hydra, human, plants.

Cell Theory

Two biologists, �Schleiden and Schwann�� gave the�Cell theory� which was later on expanded by �RudolfVirchow�. He said � all cells arise from pre-existingcells.�

� Viruses are the exceptions of cell theory.

Cell Size

Size of cell is variable depending upon the type oforganism. Some are microscopic while some arevisible with naked eyes. Their size may vary from 0.2m to 18 cm.

� The largest animal cell is ostrich egg (15 cm. in diawith shell & 8 cm. in dia without shell)

� The longest animal cell is nerve cell. (upto 1m. or more)

� Smallest cells so far known are PPLOs

� e.g. mycoplasma ( 0.1 m in dia.)

Cell Membrane

� Singer and Nicholson gave the fluid mosaic model ofplasma membrane according to him it consists of abilayer of lipid in which proteins are embedded

Fluid mosaic Model of Singer & Nicholson.� Functions : Plasma membrane helps in transportation

of molecules inside or outside the cell.

� Terms related with transportation of molecules :

� Osmosis : The movement of solvent or water from theirhigher concentration to lower concentration of solventthrough a semipermeable membrane is called as

osmosis. Osmosis can also be called as �diffusion ofsolvents�.

� Endosmosis : Movement of solvent into the cell is calledas Endosmosis.

� Exosmosis : Movement of solvent outside the cell iscalled as Exosmosis.

(i) Grana : t constitutes the lamellar system. Theseare found layered on top of each other, these stacksare called as Grana. Each granum of the chloroplastis formed by super imposed closed compartmentscalled Thylakoids.

� Functions : They are the sites of light reaction ofphotosynthesis as they contain photosynthetic pigmentchlorophyll. In each thylakoid Quantasomes arepresent which are called as Photosynthetic units. Eachquantasome possesses 230 chlorophyll molecules.

(ii) Stroma: It is a granular transparent substance alsocalled as matrix. Grana are embedded in it. Besidesgrana they also contain lipid droplets, starch grains,ribosomes etc.

Internal Structure of chloroplast

� Function : This is the site of dark reaction ofphotosynthesis. Also helps in protein synthesis due topresence of ribosomes.

� Chloroplasts are also known as �kitchen of the cell�.

� t was discovered by Porter, Claude and Fullam.

� These are present in all cells except prokaryotes andmammalian erythrocytes.

� They are made up of three components :

(i) Cisternae

(ii) Vesicles

(iii) Tubules

(ii) t helps in synthesis of fats, steroids, cholesterol etc.

(iii) t helps in transportation of molecules.

(iv) SER plays a crucial role in detoxification of drugsand poisonous by-products.

Golgi Apparatus

� Golgi apparatus consists of a system of membranebounded vesicles arranged parallel to each other instacks called cisternae along with some large andspherical vacuoles.

� It was discovered by Camilo Golgi.

� In plants golgi body is called as Dictyosomes.

� It is absent in prokaryotes, mammalian RBC�s & sievecells.

� Functions :

(i) t helps in formation of middle lamellae

(ii) t is secretory in nature.

(iii) t helps in melanin synthesis

(iv) Lipids and proteins synthesized in endoplasmicreticulum are packed at golgi complex. They providethe site for assembly of new membrane material.

(v) It helps in the formation of acrosome.

Vacuoles

� These are membrane bounded regions in thecytoplasm containing water and other substances.

� They are bounded by a single membrane calledTonoplast.

� n animal cells vacuoles are smaller in size andnumerous while in plant cells a single large vacuole isfound which occupies about 90% of the volume of cell.

� Functions :

� t helps in maintaining osmoregulation in a cell.

� t stores toxic metabolic products of plant cell.

� t contains various coloured pigments likeanthocyanins.

Lysosomes

(Discovery : Christian de Duve) (Lyso = digestive, soma= body)

� These are tiny sac like structure containing enzymesof intracellular digestion.

� They are bounded by a single membrane.

� They occur in animal cells and a few in plant cells.

� They contain hydrolysing enzymes called acidhydrolases.

� Functions :

� They are kind of waste disposal system.

� They help in digesting foreign materials and worn outcells. So they are also called as �Suicidal Bags�.

Peroxisomes

� These structures were first described from liver andkidney cells by Rodhin (1954)

� In plant cells, they were first observed in germinatingseeds by Tolbert (1969)

� In green leaves of C3 plants, peroxisomes carry out

photorespiration.

� In animal cells they carry out lipid metabolism.

Glyoxysomes

� Beavers (1961) was the first person to discover theseorganelles and were described later by R.W.Briedenbach (1967).

� They are found in plant cells, particularly, in germinatingfatty seeds e.g. Ricinus (castor) and groundnut wherefat is being converted into carbohydrates by a processcalled glyoxylate cycle.

Ribosomes

� Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis.

� Ribosomes are made up of ribonucleoprotein & naked.

� Ribosomes are smallest cell organelle.

� Ribosome are two types(i) 70 S in prokaryotic cell.

(ii) 80 S in eukaryotic cell.(s = Svedberg units)

� Functions : Ribosomes help in protein synthesis.

Three principal types of protein fi laments aremicrofilaments, microtubules, and intermediatefilaments, constitute the cytoskeleton.

� Microfilaments are made up of actin-like protein. They

(i) help in maintaining cell shape

(ii) are involved along with microtubules in cellmovements.

(iii) participate in intracellular transport.

29PAGE # 29

(iv) play an important role in movement of organelles.

� The intermediate filaments have 8-10 nm diameter. Inmost animal cells, they form a basket around thenucleus and are present in cell-cell junction.

� It is found only in animal cell.

� It consists of two centrioles.

� It is membraneless structure.

� It is made up of microtubules.

� It helps in cell division and spindle formation.

(ii) Cilia and flagella : These are thread likeappendages used for locomotion and emerge frombasal body.

(iii) Chromosomes : These are thread like structurescontaining hereditary information in form of genes.

(iv) There are four different types of membranes on thebasis of permeability :

(A) Permeable : They allow diffusion of both solventand solute molecules or ions through them, e.g. Cellwall of plant cell.

(B) mpermeable: They prohibit the diffusion of bothsolvent and solute particles through them, e.g.Cutinized cell wall, Lignified cell wall.

(C) Semipermeable: Allows diffusion of solventmolecules but do not allow the passage of solutemolecules, e.g. Parchment paper, Kidney membrane.

(D) Differentially permeable: t allows some solutesto pass through them along with the solvent molecules.e.g. Plasmalemma, Tonoplast.

(v) Plasmodesmata : Connections through which cellscommunicate chemically with each other through theirthick walls are called as �Plasmodesmata�.

(vi) Protoplasm was called as �Physical Basis of Life�by Huxley.

Cell Division

Cell division was first observed by Nageli in plant cell(1842) and it was first studied by Prevost and Dumasin the fertilized egg of frog.

� Cell Cycle : It is a series of programmed cyclic changesby which the cell duplicates its contents and dividesinto two daughter cells. Cell cycle was discovered byHoward and Pelc.It is divided into two phases :

(i) Long non dividing (I � phase) or interphase.

(ii) Short dividing M � phase or mitotic phase

(i) Long non dividing (I � phase) or interphase orpreparatory phase : Interphase divided in the followingsteps.

Cell cycle

(ii) Short dividing M � phase : t is the phase of celldivision. It consists of karyokinesis (nuclear division)and cytokinesis (cytoplasmic division).It is of threetypes:

(a) Mitosis :

� Term mitosis was given by Flemming.

� It is also called as somatic division as it occurs duringformation of body cells.

� It is an equational division in which a parent cell dividesinto two identical daughter cells, each of them containsthe same number of chromosomes as are present inparent cell.

� It occurs in two steps :(i) Karyokinesis (ii) Cytokinesis

(i) Karyokinesis : Division of nucleus. It is divided infour steps :

(A) Prophase : Longest phase. In this chromatincondensed into chromosomes and nuclearmembrane disappears.

(B) Metaphase : Chromosomes are arranged at theequator & forming a metaphase plate. Chromosomesare shortest and thickest in this stage. This phase ismost suitable for study of chromosomes.

(C) Anaphase : Shortest phase of cell division.

Chromosomes are appeared in different shapes.

� V � Shaped (Metacentric)

� L � Shaped (Submetacentric)

� J � Shaped (Acrocentric)

� I � Shaped (Telocentric)

(D) Telophase : It is reverse of prophase

(ii) Cytokinesis : It is referred to the division of cytoplasm.In animals it occurs by formation of cleavage furrow inthe middle by constriction in plasma membrane. Inplants it occurs by cell plate formation.

� Note : Colchicine is a mitotic poison. It blocks thecompletion of metaphase.

(b) Meiosis :

� It occurs only once in the life cycle of organism.

� It is a double division in which a diploid cell dividestwice to form four haploid cells.

� It can be studied in anthers of unopened flowers inplants and in testis of grasshopper in animals.Itconsists of two phases :

(i) Interphase : Size of nucleus increases to threetimes. It also involves G

1 � S � phase in meiosis-I and

G1 � G

2 in meiosis-II.

(ii) M � phase : It occurs in two steps

(A) Meiosis � I,

(B) Meiosis � II

(A) Meiosis � I : Also called as reduction division.Diploid stage changes to haploid stage. It occurs infour steps.

� Prophase � I : It is the longest phase of meiosis. It hasfollowing stages :

31PAGE # 31

� Diplotene : Synaptinemal complex is dissolved, tetradsare cleared. At some places nonsister chromatids oftwo homologous chromosomes remain attached toform a chiasmata.

� Diakinesis : Terminalization

� Metaphase � I

� Anaphase � I

� Telophase � I

(B) Meiosis � II : It is also called as equational divisionand maintains the haploid number of chromosomes.No replication of DNA occurs in this stage (It is similarto mitosis)

� Prophase � II

� Metaphase � II

� Anaphase � II

� Telophase � II

Differences between mitotic and meiotic cell division

Mitosis MeiosisIt occurs in all somatic cells. It occurs in reproductive cells (germ cells)

In the resultant daughter cells, the number of chromosomes remains the same (i.e., diploid), hence, called equational division.

In resultant daughter cells, the number of chromosomes reduces to half (i.e., haploid), hence, called reductional division.

By mitosis two daughter cells are produced By meiosis four daughter cells are produced.

During mitosis no crossing over takes place During meiosis crossing over takes place.

Daughter cells have identical chromosomes which are also identical to that of parent cell (i.e. remains constant)

Chromosomes of the daughter cells are with combined components (genes) of both parents (i.e., genetic variability occurs)

� Significance of mitosis : It is essential for growth,repair, differentiation, maintenance of chromosomenumber etc.

� Significance of meiosis : It produces variations andessential for sexual reproduction. It maintains thechromosome number in each generation of livingorganisms.

(c) Amitosis :

It was discovered by Remak. In this division cells aredivided in to two into cells without any particular pattern.e.g. prokaryotic cells.

THE MUGHAL EMPIRE

INTRODUCTION

(a) The Great Mughals

(i) Ruling as large a territory as the Indiansubcontinent with such a diversity of people andcultures was an extremely difficult task for any rulerto accomplish in the Middle Ages. Quite in contrastto their predecessors, the Mughals created anempire and accomplished what had hithertoseemed possible for only short periods of time.

(ii) From the latter half of the sixteenth century theyexpanded their kingdom from Agra and Delhi, untilin the seventeenth century they controlled nearlyall of the subcontinent.

(iii) They imposed structures of administration andideas of governance that outlasted their rule,leaving a political legacy that succeeding rulers ofthe subcontinent could not ignore.

(iv) Today the Prime Minister of India addresses thenation on Independence Day from the ramparts ofthe Red Fort in Delhi, the residence of the Mughalemperors.

THE MUGHALS

(a) Who Were the Mughals

(i) The Mughals were descendants of two greatlineages of rulers. From their mother's side theywere descendents of Genghis Khan (died 1227),ruler of the Mongol tribes, China and Central Asia.From their father's side they were the successorsof Timur (died 1404), the ruler of Iran, Iraq andmodern-day Turkey. However, the Mughals did notlike to be called Mughals or Mongol. This wasbecause Genghis Khan's memory wasassociated with the massacre of innumerablepeople. It was also linked with the Uzbegs, theirMongol competitors.

(ii) On the other hand, the Mughals were proud oftheir Timurid ancestry, not least of all because theirgreat ancestor had captured Delhi in 1398.

(iii) They celebrated their genealogy prictorially, eachruler getting a picture made of Timur and himself.

(b) Mughal Military Campaigns

(i) Babar, the first Mughal emperor (1526-1530),succeeded to the throne of Ferghana in 1494when he was only 12 years old. He was forced toleave his ancestral throne due to the invasion ofanother Mongol group, the Uzbegs. After years ofwandering he seized Kabul in 1504. In 1526 hedefeated the Sultan of Delhi, Ibrahim Lodi, atPanipat and captured Delhi and Agra. Table 1charts some of the major campaigns of theMughals.

BABUR ·1526-1530

1526 - defeated Ibrahim Lodi and his Afghan supportersat Panipat.

1527 - defeated Rana Sanga. Rajput rulers and allies atKhanua.

1528 - defeated the Rajputs at Chanderi;

Established 'control over Agra and Delhi before his death.

HUMAYUN 1530-1540, 1555-1556

(1) Humayun divided his inheritance according to thewill of his father: His brothers were each given aprovince.

The ambitions of his brother Mirza Kamranweakened Humayun's cause against Afghancompetitors. Sher Khan defeated Humayun atChausa (1539) and Kanauj (1540), forcing him toflee to Iran.

(2) In Iran Humayun received help from the SafavidShah. He recaptured Delht in 1555 but died thenext year after an accident in this building.

AKBAR 1556-1605

Akbar was 13 years old when he became emperor.

His reign can be divided into three periods.

(1) 1556-1570 - Akbar became independent of the

regent Bairam Khan and other members of his

domestic staff. Military campaigns 'were launched

against the Suris and other Afghans, against the

neighbouring kingdoms of , Malwa and

Gondwana, and to suppress the revolt of his half-

brother Mirza Hakim and the Uzbegs. In 1568 the

Sisodiya capital of Chittor was seized and in 1569

Ranthambhor.

(2) 1570-1585 - military campaigns in Gujarat were

followed by campaigns in the east in Bihar, Bengal

and Orissa. These campaigns were complicated

by the 1579-1580 revolt in support of Mirza Hakim.

(3) 1585-1605 - expansion of Akbar's empire.

Campaigns were launched in the north-west.

Qandahar was seized from the Safavids, Kashmir

was annexed, as also Kabul, after the death of

Mirza Hakim. Campaigns in the Deccan started

and Berar, Khandesh and parts of Ahmadnagar

were annexed. In the last years of his reign Akbar

was distracted by the rebellion of Prince Salim,

the future Emperor Jahangir.

Jahangir 1605-1627

Military campaigns started by Akbar continued. The

Sisodiya ruler of Mewar, Amar Singh, accepted MughaI

service. Less successful campaigns against the Sikhs,

the Ahoms and Ahmadnagar followed. Prince Khurram,

the future Emperor Shah Jahan, rebelled in the last

years of his reign, The efforts of Nur Jaha, Jahangir's

wife, to marginalise him were unsuccessful.

Shah Jahan 1627-1658

Mughal campaigns continued in the Deccan under

Shan Jahan. The Afghan noble Khan jahan Lodi

rebelled and was defeated. Campaigns were

launched against Ahmadnagar; the Bundelas were

defeated and Orchha seized. In the north-west, the

campaign to seize Balkh from the Uzbegs was

unsuccessful and Qandahar was lost to the Safavids.

In 1632 Ahmadnagar was finally annexed and the

Bijapur forces sued for peace. In 1657-1658, there was

conflict over succession amongst Shah Jahan's sons.

Aurangzeb was victorious and his three brothers,

including Dara Shukoh. were killed. Shah Jahan was

imprisoned for the rest of his life in Agra.

PAGE # 36

Aurangzeb-1658-1707

(1) In the north-east, the Ahoms were defeated in1663, but rebelled again in the 1680s. Campaignsin the north-west against the Yusufzai and theSikhs were temporarily successful. Mughalintervention in the succession and intemal politicsof the Rathor Rajputs of Marwar led to theirrebell ion. Campaigns against the Marathachieftain Shivaji were initially successful. Buturangzeb insulted Shivaji who escaped from Agra,

declared himself an independent king andresumed his campaigns against the Mughals.Prince Akbar rebelled against Aurangzeb andreceived support from the Marathas arid theDeccan Sultanate. He finally fled to Safavid Iran.

(2) After Akbar's rebellion Aurangzeb sent armiesagainst the Deccan Sultanates. Bijapur wasarnnexed in 1685 and Golconda in 1687. From1698 Aurangzeb personally managed campaignsin the Deccan against the Marathas who startedguerrilla warfare. Aurangzeb also had to face therebellion in north India of the sikhs, Jats andSatnamis, in the north-east of the Ahoms and inthe Deccan of the Marathas. His death wasfollowed by a succession conflict amongst hissons.

Akbar ordered one of his close-friends andcourtiers, Abul Fazl, to write a history of his reign.Abul Fazl wrote a three-volume history of Akbar'sreign, titled Akbar Nama. The first volume dealtwith Akbar's ancestors and the second volumerecorded the events of Akbar's reign. The thirdvolume is the Ain-i Akbari. It deals with Akbar'sadministration, household, army the revenues andthe geography of his empire. It also provides richdetails about the traditions and culture of thepeople living' in India. The most interesting aspectabout the Ain-i Akbar is its rich statistical detailsabout things as diverse as crops, yields, prices,wages and revenues.

India during the emergence of Mughals

(c) Mughal Traditions of Succession

The Mughals did not believe in the rule ofprimogeniture, where the eldest son inherited hisfather's estate.

Instead they followed the Mughal and Timuridcustom of coparcenary inheritance, or a divisionof the amongst all the sons.

PAGE # 37

(d) Mughal Relations With Other Rulers

(i) The Mughal rulers campaigned constantly againstrulers who refused to accept their authority. But asthe Mughals became powerful many other rulersalso joined them voluntarily. The Rajputs are agood example of this. Many of them married theirdaughters into Mughal families and received highpositions. But many resisted as well.

(ii) The Sisodiya Rajputs refused to accept Mughalauthority for a long time. Once defeated, however,they were honourably treated by the Mughals,given their lands (watan) back as assignments(watan jagir). The careful balance betweendefeating but not humiliating their opponentsenabled the Mughals to extend their influence overmany kings and chieftains. But it was difficult tokeep this balance all the time.

(iii) For example Aurangzeb insulted Shivaji when hecame to accept Mughal authority.

THE MUGHAL ADMINISTRATION

(a) Mansabdars and Jagirdars

(i) As the empire expanded to encompass differentregions the Mughals recruited diverse bodies ofpeople. From a small nucleus of Turkish nobles(Turanis) they expanded to include Iranians,Indian, Muslims, Afghans, Rajputs, Marathas andother groups. Those who joined Mughal servicewere enrolled as mansabdars.

(ii) The term mansabdar refers to an individual whoholds a mansab, meaning a position or rank. Itwas a grading system used by the Mughals to fix(1) rank, (2) salary and (3) military responsibilities.Rank and salary were determined by a numericalvalue called zat. the higher the zat, the moreprestigious was the noble's position in court andthe larger his salary.

(iii) The mansabdar's military responsibility requiredhim to maintain a specified number of sawar orcavalary men. The mansabdar brought hiscavalyrmen for review, got them registered, theirhorses branded and then received money to paythem as salary.

(iv) Mansabdars received their salaries as revenueassignments called jagirs which were somewhatlike iqtas. But unlike muqtis, most mansabdarsdid not actually reside in or administer their jagirs.They only had rights to the revenue of theirassignments which was collected for them by theirservants while the mansabdars themselvesserved in some other part of the countary.

(v) Nobles with a zat of 5,000 were ranked higherthan those of 1,000. In Akbar's reign there were 29mansabdars with a rank of 5,000 zat; byAurangzeb's reign the number of mansabdars hadincreased to 79.

(vi) In Akbar's reign these jagirs were carefullyassessed so that their revenues were roughlyequal to the salary of the mansabdar. ByAurangzeb's reign this was no longer the caseand the actual revenue collected was often lessthan the granted sum.

(vii) There was also a huge increase in the number ofmansabdars, which meant a long wait before theyreceived a jagir. These and other factors created ashortage in the number of jagirs. As a result manyjagirdars tried to extract as much revenue aspossible while they had a jagir. Aurangzeb wasunable to control these developments in the lastyears of his reign and the peasantry thereforesuffered tremendously.

(b) Zabt and Zamindars

(i) The main source of income available to Mughalrulers was tax on the produce of the peasantry. Inmost places, peasants paid taxes through the ruralelites, that is, the headman or the local chieftain.The Mughals used one term- zamindars - todescribe all intermediaries, whether they werelocal headmen of villages or powerful chieftains.

(ii) Akbar's revenue minister, Todar Mal, carried out acareful survey of crop yields, prices and areascultivated for a 10-year period, 1570-1580. On thebasis of this data, tax was fixed on each crop incash. Each province was divided into revenuecircles with its own schedule of revenue rates forindividual crops. This revenue system was knownas zabt. It was prevalent in those areas whereMughal administrators could survey the land andkeep very careful accounts. This was not possiblein provinces such as Gujarat and Bengal.

(iii) In some areas the zamindars exercised a greatdeal of power. The exploitation by Mughaladministrators could drive them to rebellion.Sometimes zamindars and preasants of thesame caste allied in rebelling against Mughalauthority. These peasant revolts challenged thestability of the Mughal Empire from the end of theseventeenth century.

(iv) Akbar ordered one of his close friends andcourteirs, Abul Fazl, to write a history of his reign.Abul Fazl wrote a three-volume history of Akbar'sreign, titled Akbar Nama. The first volume dealtwith Akbar's ancestors and the second volumerecorded the events of Akbar's reign. The thirdvolume is the Ain-i Akbari. It deals with Akbar'sadministration, household, army, the revenuesand the geography of his empire. It also providesrich details about the traditions and culture of thepeople living in India. The most interesting aspectabout the Ain-i-Akbari is its rich statistical detailsabout things as diverse as crops, vields, prices,wages and revenues.

A CLOSER LOOK

(a) Akbars Policies

(i) The broad features of administration were laiddown by Akbar and were elaborately discussed byAbul Fazl in his book, the Akbar Nama, in particularin its last volume, the Ain-i- Akbari.

(ii) Abul Fazl explained that the empire was dividedinto provinces called subas, governed by a subadarwho carried out both political and military functions.Each province also had a financial officer or diwan.For the maintenance of peace and order in hisprovince, the subadar was supported by otherofficers such as the military paymaster (bakhshi),the minister in charge of religious and charitablepatronage (sadr), military commanders (faujdars)and town police commander (Kotwal).

(iii) Akbar's nobles commanded large armies and hadaccess to large amounts of revenue. While theywere loyal the empire functioned efficiently but bythe end of the seventeenth century many nobleshad built independent networks of their own. Theirloyalties to the empire were weakened by theirown self-interest.

(iv) While Akbar was at Fatehpur Sikri during the 1570she started discussions on religion with the ulama,Brahmanas, Jesuit priests who were RomanCatholics, and Zoroastrians. These discussionstook place in the Ibadat khana. He was interestedin the religion and social customs of differentpeople.

(v) Akbar's interaction with people of different faithsmade him realise that religious scholars whoemphasised ritual and dogma were often bigots.Their teachings created divisions and disharmonyamongst his subjects. This eventually led Akbarto the idea of sulh-i kul or "universal peace". Thisidea of tolerance did not discriminate betweenpeople of different religions in his realm. Insteadit focused on a system of ethics - honesty, justice,peace - that was universally applicable.

(vi) Abul Fazl helped Akbar in framing a vision ofgovernance around this idea of sulh-i-kul. Thisprinciple of governance was followed by Jahangirand Shah Jahan as well.

THE MUGHAL EMPIRE

(a) Impact of The Mughal Empire in The

Seventeenth Century and After

(i) The administrative and military efficiency of the

Mughal Empire led to great economic and

commercial prosperity. International travellers

described it as the fabled land of wealth. But these

same visitors were also appalled at the state of

poverty that existed side by side with the greatest

opulence.

(ii) The inequalities were glaring. Documents from

the twentieth year of Shah Jahan's reign inform us

that the highest-ranking mansabdars were only

445 in number out of a total of 8,000. This small

number a mere 5.6 per cent of the total number of

mansabdars - received 61.5 percent of the total

estimated revenue of the empire as salaries for

themselves and their troopers.

(iii) The Mughal emperors and their mansabdars

spent a great deal of their income on salaries and

goods. This expenditure benefited the artisans and

peasantry who supplied them with goods and

produce. But the scale of revenue collection left

very little for investment in the hands of the primary

producers - the peasant and the artisan.

(iv) The poorest amongst them lived from hand to

mouth and they could hardly consider investing in

additional resources - tools and supplies - to

increase productivity. The wealthier peasantry and

artisanal groups, the merchants and bankers

profited in this economic world.

(v) The enormous wealth and resources

commanded by the Mughal elite made them an

extremely powerful group of people in the late

seventeenth century. As the authority of the Mughal

emperor slowly declined, his servants emerged

as powerful centres of power in the regions.

(vi) They constitued new dynasties and held

command of provinces like Hyderabad and Awadh.

Although they continued to recongnise the Mughal

emperor in Delhi as their master, by the eighteenth

century the provinces of the empire had

consolidated their independent political identities.

Key words :

1. Dogma : A statement or an interpretation declared as

authoritative with the expectation that it would be

followed without question.

2. Bigot : An individual who is intolerant of another person's

religious belief's or culture.

3. Zat Ranking : Nobles with a gat of 5,000 were ranked

higher than those of 1,000.

In Akbar's reign there were 29 mansabdars with a rank

of 5000 zat, by Aurangzeb's reign the number of

mansabdars had increased to 79.

INSIDE OUR EARTH

INTRODUCTION

The earth, our homeland is a dynamic planet. It isconstantly undergoing changes inside and outside.

STRUCTURE OF THE EARTH

(a) Interior of The Earth

(i) Crust(Sial) :- Just like an onion, the earth is madeup of several concentric layers with one insideanother. The uppermost layer over the earth'ssurface is called the crust. It is about 35 k.m. Onthe continental masses and only 5 k.m. on theocean floors.

(ii) The main mineral constituents of the continentalmass are silica and alumina. It is thus called sial(si-silica and al-alumina). The oceanic crust mainlyconsists of silica and magnesium : it is thereforecalled sima (si-silica and ma-magnesium).

(iii) Mantle(Sima) :- Just beneath the crust is themantle which extends up to a depth of 2900 k.m..below the crust.

(iv) Core(Nife):- The innermost layer is the core with aradius of about 3500 k.m.. It is mainly made up ofnickel and iron and is called nife (ni-nickel and fe-ferrous i.e iron). The central core has very hightemperature and pressure.

(v) The crust forms only 0.5 per cent of the volume ofthe earth, 16 percent consists of the mantle and83 per cent makes the core.

(vi) The radius of the earth is 6371 k.m..

Fig. : Structure of the Earth

ROCKS AND MINERALS

(a) Meaning of Rocks

The earth's crust is made up of various types of rocks.

Any natural mass of mineral matter that makes up the

earth's crust is called a rock . Rocks can be of different

colour, size and texture.

(b) Table of Rock Types

Igneous(LatinWord- Ignis)

Sedimentary(Latin Word- Sedimentum)

Metamorphic(Greek Word- Metamorphose)(e.g., marble)

Extrusive[volcanic](e.g., Basalt)

Intrusive[plutonic](e.g., Granite)

Formed Mechanically(e.g., shaleclay, sandstonerocksalt)

Formed Chemically(e.g., gypsum)

FormedOrganically(e.g., chalk ,Dolomitelime stone )

Rocks Types

There are three major types of rocks : igneous rocks,sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks .

Igneous Rocks :

(i) When the molten magma cools, it becomes solid.Rocks thus formed are called igneous rocks. Theyare also called primary rocks. There are two typesof igneous rocks: intrusive rocks and extrusiverocks.

(ii) Lava coming out from the volcanoes is actuallyfiery red molten magma coming out from theinterior of the earth on its surface.

(iii) When this molten lava comes on the earth's

surface, it rapidly cools down and becomes solid.

(iv) Rocks formed in such a way on the crust are called

extrusive igneous rocks.

(v) They have a very fine grained structure. For

example, basalt.

(vi) The Deccan plateau is made up of basalt rocks.

Sometimes the molten magma cools down deep

inside the earth's crust.

PAGE # 41

(vii) Solid rocks so formed are called intrusive igneous

rocks. Since they cool down slowly they form large

grains.

(viii) Granite is an example of such a rock. grinding

stones used to prepare paste/ powder of spices

and grain are made of granite.

Sedimentary Rocks :

(i) Rocks roll down, crack and hit each other and are

broken down into small fragments. These smaller

particle are called sediments. These sediments

are transported and deposited by wind, water, etc.

These loose sediments are compressed and

hardened to form layers of rocks.

(ii) These types of rocks are called sedimentary

rocks. For example, sandstone is made from

grains of sand. These rocks may also contain

fossils of plants, animals and other micro-

organisms that once lived on them.

(iii) Igneous and sedimentary rocks can change into

metamorphic rocks under great heat and

pressure. For example, clay changes into slate

and limestone into marble.

(iv) Rocks are very useful to us. The hard rocks are

used for making roads, houses and buildings.

Metamorphic Rocks

(i) The term 'metamorphic' is derived from the word

'metamorphosis'; which means 'change of form.

(ii) When igneous or sendimentary rocks are

subjected to extreme heat and pressure they

undergo a complete change in their form and

characteristics. Such rocks are called

metamorphic rocks.

(iii) The change may occur as a result of volcanic

activity, movements in the earth's crust or simply

due to heat and pressure deep inside the earth.

Marble, Slate, Gneiss and Quartzite are some

examples of metamorphic rocks.

(iv) They have been formed from limestone, shale,

granite and sandstone respectively.

ROCKS AND MINERALS

(a) Rock Cycle

(i) One type of rock changes to another type under

certain conditions in a cyclic manner.

(ii) This process of transformation of the rock from

one to another is known as the rock cycle. When

the molten magma cools; it solidifies to become

igneous rock.

(iii) These igneous rocks are broken down into small

particles that are transported and deposited to form

sedimentary rocks.

(iv) When the igneous and sedimentary rocks are

subjected to heat and pressure they change into

metamorphic rocks.

(v) The metamorphic rocks which are still under great

heat and pressure melt down to form molten

magma.

(vi) This molten magma again can cool down and

solidify into igneous rocks.

(b) Uses of Rocks and Minerals

(i) Rocks are made up of different minerals. Minerals

are naturally, occurring substances which have

certain physical properties and definite chemical

composition.

(ii) Minerals are very important to humankind. Some

are used as fuels. For example, coal, natural gas

and petroleum.

(iii) They are also used in industries - iron, aluminium,

gold, uranium, in medicine, in fertilisers, etc.

(c) Rock Distribution in India

(i) Granite is found in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh,

Chota Nagpur Plateau, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu,

Andhra Pradesh and the Deccan trap region

(Maharashtra).

(ii) Sandstone occurs in Vindhyachal and Aravali

ranges. Limestone occurs widely in peninsular

India. Coal mines occur in the basins of rivers

Godavari, Mahanadi and Damodar, Marble is

found in Rajasthan. The Indo-Ganetic plain is of

sedimentary accumulation.

(iii) Rocks have great economic value. The cotton soil

found in the Deccan trap is a product of extrusive

igneous rocks. Other soils like alluvium are also

result of disintegrated rocks. Stones used in

construction of houses and roads, dams. etc. are

all rock products. Rocks are source of precious

and useful metals. Iron ore, bauxite, copper, lead,

zinc and gold are found in igneous rocks. Non-

metallic minerals include sulphur which is used

for medicinal purposes. Coal and Petroleum are

important sources of energy.

STATE GOVERNMENT AND ITS ROLE IN HEALTH

Part - I

INTRODUCTION

(a) The State Government

(i) There are governments at three levels in India -local, state and national Governments found ineach state are known as state governments. Thepowers of a state government extend only withinthe boundaries of a state. The extent to which thestate government can exercise its powers ismentioned in the Constitution of India. Carrying

out administration is a major task, which involvesmany institutions. These institutions act and reactto many situations and take decisions for thewelfare of the people of that state.

(ii) The State Government has more or less the samestructure as that of the Central Government. It hasthree organs - the State Legislature, the StateExecutive, and the State Judiciary (or the HighCourt). Each of these organs perform a certainfunction which is clearly defined.

(iii) At present India is divided into 28 states and 7union territories as shown in the map below.

PAGE # 45

COMPOSITION OF STATE GOVERNMENT

(a) Who is an MLA

(i) Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) areelected by the people. They then becomemembers of the legislative assembly and alsoform the government. In this way we say that theMLAs represent people. The example below willhelp us to understand this better.

(ii) Every state in India has a Legislative Assembly.Each state is divided into different areas orconstituencies. For example, the state of HimachalPradesh is divided into 68 assemblyconstituencies. From each constituency, thepeople elect one representative who thenbecomes a Member of the Legislative Assembly(MLA). You would have noticed that people standfor elections in the name of different parties. TheseMLAs therefore, belong to different political parties.

(iii) How do people who are MLAs become ministersor chief minister ? A political party whose MLAshave won more than half the number ofconstituencies in a state can be said to be in amajority. The political party that has the majority iscalled the ruling party and all other members arecalled the opposition. For example, the LegislativeAssembly of the state of Himachal Pradesh has68 MLA constituencies.

(iv) Candidates from various political parties won the2003 assembly elections and became MLAs.Since the total number of MLAs in the LegislativeAssembly is 68, a political party would have neededto have more National Congress with 43 MLAshad the majority and it became the ruling party. Allother MLAs became the opposition. In this case,Bharatiya Janata Party was the major oppositionparty, since it had the largest number of MLAs afterthe Indian National Congress. Among theopposition were other parties, including those whohad been elected as independent candidates.

(v) After the elections, the MLAs belonging to the rulingparty will elect their leader who will become thechief minister. In this case, the Congress PartyMLAs chose Shri Virbhadra Singh as their leaderand he became the chief minister. The chiefminister the selects other people as ministers.After the elections, it is the Governor of the statewho appoints the chief minister and otherministers.

(vi) The Head of the State is the Governor. She/He isappointed by the Central Government to ensurethat the State Government works within the rulesand regulations of the Constitution.

(vii) The chief minister and other ministers have theresponsibility of running various governmentdepartments or ministries. They have separateoffices. A Legislative Assembly is a place where

all the MLAs, whether from the ruling party or fromthe opposition meet to discuss various things.Hence, some MLAs have dual responsibities : oneas an MLA and the other as a minister.

(b) The Government

(i) The word 'government' refers to governmentdepartments and various ministers who headthem. The overall head is the chief minister.

(ii) More correctly, this is called the executive part ofthe government. All the MLAs who gather together(assemble) in the legislative assembly are calledthe Legislature.

(iii) They are the ones who authorise and supervisetheir work.

(iv) It is from among them that the head of theexecutive or the chief minister is formed.

(c) Working of the Government

(i) The Legislative Assembly is not the place whereopinions are expressed about the work of thegovernment and action is demanded.

(ii) Newspapers, TV channels and other organisatiionregularly talk about the government policies. Indemocracy, there are various ways through whichpeople express their views and also take action.

(iii) The people in power like the chief minister andthe minister have to take action. They do so throughvarious departments like the Public WorksDepartment, the Agriculture Department, theHealth Department, the Education Departmentand so on. They also have to answer questionsthat are asked in the Legislative Assembly andconvince people asking the questions that propersteps are being taken.

(iv) At the same time, newspapers and the mediawidely discuss the issue and the government hasto respond, for example, by holding the pressconferences.

(v) The government can also decide to make newlaws for the state regarding sanitation and healthfacilities. For example, it may make it compulsoryfor municipal corporations to ensure that there areadequate toilets in every urban area. It may alsoensure that a health worker is appointed in everyvillage.

(vi) This act of making laws on certain issues is donein the Legislative Assembly of each state. Thevarious government departments then implementthese laws. Laws for the entire country are madein the Parliament.

(vii) In a democracy, it is the people who elect therepresentatives as Members of the LegislativeAssembly (MLAs) and, thus, it is the people whohave the main authority. The ruling party membersthe form the government and some members areappointed ministers.

PAGE # 46

(viii) These ministers are in charge of variousdepartments of the government such as health.

(ix) Whatever work is done by these departments hasto be approved by the members of the legislativeassembly.

Part - II

THE ROLE OF THE GOVERNMENT IN HEALTH

(a) Introduction

In a democracy people expect the government to workfor their welfare. This could be through the provision ofeducation, health, employment, housing or thedevelopment of roads, electricity etc.

(b) Meaning of Health

(i) We can think of health in many ways. Healthmeans our ability to remain free of illness andinjuries. But health isn't only about disease.

(ii) Apart from disease, we need to think of otherfactors that affect our health. For example, if peopleget clean drinking water or a pollution freeenvironment they are likely to be healthy. On theother hand, if people do not get adequate food toeat or have to live in cramped conditions, they willbe prone to illness.

(iii) All of us would like to be active and in good spiritsin whatever we may be doing. It isn't healthy to bedull, in active, anxious or scared for long stretchesof time. We all need to be without mental strain.

(iv) All of these various aspects of our lives are a partof health.

(c) Healthcare in India

(i) India has the largest number of medical collegesin the world and is among the largest producersof doctors. Approximately 15,000 new doctorsqualify every year.

(ii) Healthcare facilities have grown substantially overthe years. In 1950, there were only 2,717 hospitalsin India. In 1991, there were 11,174 hospitals. In2000, the number grew to 18,218.

(iii) India gets a large number of medical tourists frommany countries. They come for treatment in someof the hospitals in India that compare with the bestin the world.

(iv) India is the fourth largest producer of medicinesin the world and is also a large exporter ofmedicines.

(v) Most doctors settle in urban areas. People in ruralareas have to travel long distances to reach adoctor. The number of doctors with respect to thepopulation is much less in rural areas.

(vi) About five lakh people die from tuberculosis everyyear. This number is almost unchanged sinceIndependence ! Almost two million cases ofmalaria are reported every year and this numberisn't decreasing.

(vii) We are not able to provide clean drinking water toall. 21 per cent of all communicable diseases arewater borne. For example, diarrhoea, worms,hepatitis, etc.

(viii) Half of all children in India do not get adequatefood to eat and are undernourished.

(ix) In order to prevent and treat illnesses we needappropriate healthcare facilities such as healthcentres, hospitals, laboratories for testingambulance services, blood banks, etc., that canprovide the required care and services that patientneed. In order to run such facilities we need healthworkers, nurses, qualified doctors and other healthprofessionals who can advice, diagnose and treatillnesses.We also need the medicines andequipment that are necessary for treating patients.These facilities are required to take care of us.

(x) India has a large number of doctors, clinics andhospitals. The country also has considerableexperience and knowledge in running a publichealthcare system. This is a system of hospitalsand heatlh centres run by the government. It hasthe ability to look after the health of a large sectionof its population scattered over hundreds ofthousands of villages.

(xi) Moreover, there has been a phenomenaladvancement in medical sciences whereby manynew technologies and treatment procedures areavailable in the country.

(xii) With all the above positive developments we arenot able to provide proper healthcare facilities topeople. This is the paradox - something that iscontrary to what we would expect. Our country hasthe money, knowledge and people with experiencebut cannot make the necessary healthcareavailable to all

HEALTHCARE SERVICES

(a) Public Health Services

(i) The public health services is a chain of healthcentres and hospitals run by the government. Theyare linked together so that they cover both ruraland urban areas and can also provide treatmentto all kinds of problems - from common illnessesto special services. At the village level there arehealth centres where there is usually a nurse anda village health worker.

(ii) They are trained in dealing with common illnessand work under the supervision of doctors at thePrimary Health Centre (PHC). Such a centre coversmany villages in a rural area. At the district level

PAGE # 47

the District Hospital that also supervises all thehealth centres. Large cities have manygovernment hospitals.

(iii) The health service is called 'public' for manyreasons. In order to fulfil its commitment ofproviding healthcare to all cit izens, thegovernement has established these hospitalsand health centres. Also the resources needed torun these services are obtained from the moneythat we , the public, pay the government as taxes.Hence, such facilities are meant for everyone.

(iv) One of the most important aspects of the publichealth system is that it is meant to provide qualityhealthcare services either free at a low cost, sothat even the poor can seek treatment.

(v) Another important function of public health is totake action to prevent the spread diseases suchas TB, malaria, jaundice, cholera, diarrhoea,chikungunya, etc.

(vi) This has to be organised by the government withthe participation of people otherwise it is noteffective. For example, when taking up a campaignto see that mosquitoes do not breed in water -coolers, roof tops, etc., this has to be done for allhouses in the area.

(vii) According to our Constitution, it is the primary dutyof the government to ensure the welfare of thepeople and provide health care facilities to all.

(viii) The government must safeguard the Right to Lifeof every person. If a hospital cannot provide timelymedical treatment to a person, it means that thisprotection of life is not being given.

(b) Private health facilities

(i) There is a wide range of private health facilitiesthat exist in our country. A large number of doctorsrun their own private clinics. In the rural areas,one finds Registered Medical Practitioners(RMPs). Urban areas have large number ofdoctors, many of them providing specialisedservices.

(ii) There are hospitals and nursing homes that areprivately owned. There are many laboratories thatdo tests and offer special facilities such as X - ray,ultrasound, etc. There are also shops from wherewe buy medicines.

(iii) As the name suggests, private health facilities arenot owned or controlled by the government. Unlikethe public health services, in private facilities,patients have to pay a lot of money for every servicethat they use.

(iv) Today the presence of private facilities can be seenall around. In fact now there are large companiesthat run hospitals and some are engaged inmanufacturing and selling medicines. Medicalshops are found in every corner of the country.

(c) Healthcare and Equality (i) In India, we face a situation whereprivate services are increasing butpublic services are not. What is thenavailable to people are mainly privateservices. These are concentrated inurban areas. As these services are runfor profit, the cost of these sercices israther high. Medicines are expensive.Many people cannot afford them or haveto borrow money when there is anillness in the family.

(ii) In order to earn more money, theseprivate services encourage practicesthat are incorrect. At times cheapermethods, though available, are notused. For example, it is common to finddoctors prescribing unnecessarymedicines, injections or saline bottleswhen tablets or simple medicines cansuffice.

(iii) In fact, barely 20 per cent of the population canafford all the medicines that they require duringan illness. Hence, even for those whom one mightnot think as being poor, medical expenses causehardship. It was reported in a study that 40 percent of people who are admitted to a hospital forsome illness or injury have to borrow money orsell some of their possessions to pay for theexpenses.

(iv) For those who are poor, every illness in the familyis a cause of great anxiety and distress. What isworse is that this situation tends to happen againand again. Those who are poor are in the firstplace undernourished. These families are noteating as much as they should. They are notprovided basic necessities like drinking water,adequate housing, clean surroundings, etc., andtherefore, are more lik ely to fall ill. The expenseson illness make their situation even worse.

PAGE # 48

(v) Sometimes it is not only the lack of money thatprevents people from getting proper medicaltreatment. Women, for example, are not taken to adoctor in a prompt manner. Women's healthconcerns are considered to be less important thanthe health of men in the family. Many tribal areashave few health centres and they do not runproperly. Even private health services are notavailable.

(d) Remedies

(i) There is little doubt that the health situation of mostpeople in our country is not good. It is theresponsibility of the government to provide qualityhealthcare services to all its citizens, especiallythe poor and the disadvantaged. However, healthis as much dependent on basic amenities andsocial conditions of the people, as it is onhealthcare services. Hence, it is important to workon both in order to improve the health situation ofour people , as it is on healthcare services. Henceit is important to work on both in order to improvethe health situation of our people. And this can bedone.

(ii) Look at the following example -

(iii) The Kerala experience : In 1996, the Keralagovernment made some major changes in thestate. Forty per cent of the entire state budget wasgiven to panchayats. They could plan and providefor their requirements. This made possible for avillage to make sure that proper planning was donefor water, food, women's development andeducation. This meant that water supply schemeswere checked, the working of schools andanganwadis was ensured and specific problemsof the village were taken up. Health centres werealso improved. All of this helped to improve thesituation. Despite these efforts, however, someproblems - such as shortage of medicines,insufficient hospital beds, not enough doctors -remained, and these needed to be addressed.

Let us look at an example of another country andits approach to issues of health.

(iv) The Costa Rican approach : Costa Rica isconsidered to be one of the healthiest countriesin South America. The main reason for this can befound in the Costa Rican Constitution. Severalyears ago, Costa Rica took a very importantdecision and decided not to have an army. Thishelped the Costa Rican government to spend themoney that the army would have used, on healtheducation and other basic needs of the people.The Costa Rican government believes that acountry has to be healthy for its development andpays a lot of attention to the health of its people.The Costa Rican government provides basicservices and amenities to all Costa Ricans. Forexample, it provides safe drinking water, sanitation,nutrition and housing. Health education is alsoconsidered very important and knowledge abouthealth is an essential part of education at all levels.

CODING-DECODING

CODING-DECODING

A code is �a system of signals�. Coding is,therefore, a method of transmitting a messagebetween sender and receiver which cannot beunderstood or comprehended by a third person.The coding decoding test is set up to judge thecandidate�s ability to decipher a particular word/message and break the code to decipher themessage. In coding, actual alphabets/words/terms/numbers are replaced by certain otheralphabets/words/terms/symbols etc. according toa specific rule. To solve these type of questions wehave to detect the rule and then answer thequestions.Decoding : It is a method to find the meaning ofsomething that has written in code.

LETTER-LETTER CODING

In these type of questions, the letters in a word arereplaced by certain other letters according to aspecific rule to form its code. The candidate isrequired to detect the coding pattern / rule andanswer the questions accordingly.

SUBSTITUTION CODING

In these types of questions, some particular objects

are assigned code names. Then a question is

asked that is to be answered in the code language.

Ex 9. If paper is called eraser, eraser is called bag, bag

then what is the colour of blood ?

(A) red (B) darkness

(C) white (D) yellow

Sol. (C) Colour of blood is �red� and red is called white

hence, the answer is �white�.

PUZZLE BASED CODING

In this type of questions, some messages are given

in the coded language and the code for a particular

word or message is asked. To analyses such

codes, any two messages bearing a common word

are picked up. The common code word will thus

represent that word. Proceeding similarly by picking

up all possible combinations of two, the entire

message can be decoded and the order for

individual words found.

Ex 12. In a certain code language 389 means run very

fast, 964 means come back fast and 487 means

run and come. Which digit in the language means

come ?

(A) 7 (B) 9

(C) 4 (D) 8

Sol. (C) In the second and third sentences, common

number is 4 and common code is �come�. Hence,

number 4 stands for �come�.

Ex 13. In a certain code language, ken poti means good

morning, hu shang means come on, and

hu ken sue means come for good. Which word in

that language does mean for ?

(A) shang (B) ken

(C) sue (D) hu

Sol. (C) In the second and third statements, the

common code word is �come� and the common

word is �hu�. So, �come� means �hu�. In the first and

third statements, the common code word is �good�

and the common word is �ken�. So, �good� means

�ken�. Thus, in third and above statements �for�

means �sue�.

PAGE # 54

Ex 14. In a certain code, 256 means you are good, 637

means we are bad and 358 means good and bad.

Which of the following does represent and in that

code ?

(A) 2 (B) 5

(C) 8 (D) 3

Sol. (C) In the first and third statements, the common

code digit is �5� and the common word is �good�.

So, �5� means �good�. In the second and third

statements, the common code digit is �3� and the

common word is �bad�. So, �3� means �bad�. Thus,

in third statement �8� means �and�.

Ex 15. In a certain code language, lim suk ta means boys

are clever and pu ne ta means boys and girls.

Which word in that language means boys ?

(A) lim (B) suk

(C) ta (D) pu

Sol. (C) In the first and second sentences, common

word is ta and common code is �boys�. Hence,
