What is Inertia? 

CBSE Class 9 - Force and Laws of Motion 

Let's move the rock!

Inertia
It is inherent property of all bodies, by virtue of which it resists or opposes any change to it's present state of rest or of uniform motion. It varies directly as mass of the body.

Inertia of a body is of three types:

① Inertia of rest

It is in ability of a body to change by itself or if state of rest. This means a body at rest remains at rest and cannot start moving on its own.

Know Your Plastic Bottle

Class 8 - Science - Synthetic Fibres

Resin Coding System (Image Credits: Openclipart)

In 1988, the Plastic Industry Association developed the Resin Identification Codes (1-7), a set of symbols appearing on plastic products that identify the plastic resin out of which the product is made. This help the workers to sort out various plastic bottles in order to recyle or reuse them or not.

Here is a table of resin codes that are used to get information about the application of plastic, its safety and re-usability.

♳ PET/PETE
Polymer: Polythene Terephtalate
Common Applications: Soft Drink, Water and Salad Dressing bottles, peanut butter and jam jars.
Safe for Alimentary Use: Safe One Type Use.
Reusable: No

CBSE Class 8/10 - Metals vs Non-Metals (Comparison) (#cbseNotes)

Metals vs Non-Metals

Physical Properties Comparison

Property	Metals	Non Metals
Physical State	Most metals are solids at room temperature except mercury which is a liquid. Gallium and Cesium also changes into liquid at slightly above room temperature.	Non Metals exist in all states. Eleven are gases, bromine is liquid while others are solids.
Melting and Boiling Point	Generally have high melting and boiling points. (Exceptions are Gallium, Mercury, Sodium and Potassium.)	Generally they have low melting and boiling points. Exceptions are: Carbon, Boron and Silicon.
Density	They have high density except Sodium and potassium.	Low denisty (Diamond is an exception.)
Lusture	Metals shine and are lustrous.	Non-metalls appear dull. (Exceptions are Diamond, graphite and iodine.)

Cell Organelles, Location and Functions

Organelles	Present In	Description	Function
Cell Wall	Plants only	Outer most covering, stiff shape, made of cellulose	Protects the cell from temperature variation, inside water pressure and moisture, procvides structural strength
Cell Membrane	Both plants and animals	Plants inside the cell wall. Animal: thin outermost selectively permeable	Allows exchange of selected substance, supports the cell, separates the cell from its environment.
Nucleus	Both plants and animals	Oval shaped body	Control cell activities, transmits genetics characteristics
Cytoplasm	Both plants and animals	Thick jelly like fluid containing other cell organelles	Site of all life (metabolic) processes, protects cell organelles
Mitochondria	Both plants and animals	Rod shaped body	Site of respiration, releases energy form sugar, called power house of the cell
Golgi body	Both plants and animals	Parallel stacked vesicles	packaging and dispatch of proteins and lipids, helps in lysosomes formation
Endoplasmic reticulum	Both plants and animals	Networks of tubes and membrane	Transportation of materials.
Ribosomes	Both plants and animals	Small bodies, sometimes attached to endoplasmic reticulum	protein synthesis
Vacuole	Plant: single and large. Animal: very small or absent	Sac-like structure in cytoplasm	Stores food and water (cell sap)
Plastids	Only Plants	Small colored bodies in cytoplasm	Impart color to leaf, flower and fruit
Lysosomes	Generally animals	Membrane bound sac in cytoplasm filled with digestive enzymes	Eats up(digests) damaged cells and unwanted cell products
