Q 1: Write True or False for the give statements, also correct the false statements.  (1 mark per question x 10 = 10 marks)

i. In ancient times, measurement of time was done by watches –
ii. A day has 8,640 seconds –
iii. The body moving in a curved line is said to have curvilatory motion –
iv. The time taken for one oscillation is called time gap –
v. Time = (Speed) / (Distance) -
vi. The basic unit of speed is km./min. –
vii. The time period of a pendulum is constant –
viii. The symbols of all the units of distance and time etc. is written in plural –
ix. By only knowing the distance covered by two bodies, it can be found which is faster –
x. If the distance-time graph of an object is a horizontal line parallel to the time axis, then the object is moving at constant speed -
