MOTIONS OF THE EARTH – ROTATION AND REVOLUTION
Continued Students may visit https://youtu.be/taHTA7S_JGk
APPARENT MIGRATION OF THE SUN
We know that the sun does not move but the Earth revolve round the Sun. On the earth it
appears as if the Sun is changing its position day by day. This apparent migration or
movement of the Sun takes place between the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn. The
places located between the Tropics have the Sun overhead (making 90° angle) twice a year,
once between June and December and again between December and June. The places
located beyond the two Tropics never experience the overhead sun.
1. Northward apparent migration- the sun appears to be moving North word after
December 22nd till 21st of June. This northward movement for six months is also
known as uttarayan. The sun shines vertically on the Tropic of Cancer on 21st of
June.
2. Southward apparent migration- for the next six months the sun appears to be moving
southward after 21st June till 22Nd December. This Southward movement of the sun is
known as dakshinayan. The sun shines vertically on the Tropic of Capricorn on 22nd
of December.
The Changing Seasons
the apparent movement of the sun results in changes in the altitude of the midday Sun
at different times of the year so the seasonal changes are caused.latest study the cycle
of seasons according to the earth‟s position in its elliptical orbit.
I Summer Solstice 21st June
The word solstice means the sun standing still or reaching the highest point.
1.the north pole is tilted towards the sun so the rays of the sun fall vertically or
directly on the Tropic of Cancer 23 and half degree north
2. The altitude of the sun is 90 degree at 23 and half degree north.
3. it is summer season in the Northern hemisphere and it has the longest day and shortest
night on June 21st
4. the duration of day and night goes on increasing from 12 hours at the equator to 24
hours at the north pole.
5. Beyond after circle 66 and half degree north duration of day is 24 hours.
6. The northern hemispherefaces higher altitude of the midday Sun so it is summer in
the Northern hemisphere where days are longer and nights are shorter.
7. at the same time the South pole is inclined away from the sun to the sun rays do not
reach the South polar region beyond the Antarctic circle.
8. it is winter in the southern hemisphere and it has the shortest day and the longest night
on 21st of June.
9. The duration of daylight goes on decreasing from 12 hours at the equator to zero hour
( complete darkness) at the South pole.
10. Southern hemisphere faces lower altitude of the midday Sun so there is winter the
days are shorter and nights are longer.
On 21st of June sun is overhead on 23 and half degree north in the Northern sky. Show the
angle of inclination of the sun is higher in the Northern hemisphere than in the southern
hemisphere. To understand this fact that is find the angle of inclination of the sun at various
attitudes in both the hemispheres.
Angle of inclination= NH- latitude
=SH-latitude
On 21st of June NH= 90° + 23 ½°
= 90° - 23 ½°
the altitude of the sun is highest at the Tropic of Cancer on 21st of June. The sun appears to
be standing still at this position and then the southward movement of the sun towards the
equator starts after 21st of June
the word tropic means turning point the solstices are the turning points in the apparent
movement of the Sun.
II. Autumnal Equinox (23rd of September)
The word Equinox means “equal nights”, two equal days are also experienced.
1. on 23rd of September, the circle of illumination passes through both the poles making
12 hours day and 12 hours night at all places on the Earth.
2. The circle of illumination touches both the poles because at this position, the
inclination of the Earth's Axis does not have any effect on the duration of a day.
3. The sun's rays are overhead at the equator making 90° angle.
The altitude of the Sun's rays decrease as one goes away from the equator to the poles, e.g.,
the altitude of the Sun's rays at 60°N latitude would be 90° - 60°=30°. At the two poles, the
Sun appears at the horizon where the altitude of the Sun‟s rays=90°-90°=0°.
III. Winter Solstice (22nd of December)
1. The South pole is tilted towards the Sun, so the rays of the Sun fall vertically or
directly on the Tropic of Capricorn (23 ½ °S).
2. The altitude of the sun is 90° at 23 ½ °S.
3. It is summer season in the southern hemisphere and it has the longest day and the
shortest night on December 22nd.
4. The duration of day light goes on increasing from 12 hours at the equator to 24 hours
at the South Pole.
5. Beyond Antarctic circle (66 ½ °S) the duration of day is 24 hours.
6. The Southern Hemisphere faces higher altitude of the mid-day Sun so it is summer in
the Southern Hemisphere where days are longer and nights are shorter.
7. At the same time, the North Pole is inclined away from the Sun, so the Sun‟s rays do not reach the North Polar region beyond The Arctic circle.
8. It is winter in the Northern Hemisphere and it has the shortest day and the longest
night on 22nd of December.
9. The duration of daylight goes on decreasing from 12 hours at the equator to zero hour
(complete darkness) at the North Pole.
10. The Northern Hemisphere faces lower altitude of the mid-day Sun, so there is winter
where days are shorter and nights are longer.
On 22nd of December, Sun is overhead on 23 ½ °S in the Southern sky. So, the angle of
inclination of the Sun is higher in the Southern Hemisphere than in the Northern
Hemisphere. To understand this fact let us find the angle of inclination of the Sun at
various latitudes in both the Hemispheres.
Angle of Inclination = NH – latitude
= SH – latitude
On 22nd of December, SH = 90°+23 ½ °
NH = 90°-23 ½
The altitude of the Sun is highest at the Tropic of Capricorn on 22nd of December. The
Sun appears to be standing still at this position and then the northward movement of the
Sun towards the equator starts after 22nd of December.
IV. Spring or Vernal Equinox (21st of March)
1. On 21st of March the circle of illumination again passes through both the poles
making 12 hours day and 12 hours night at all places of the Earth.
2. The circle of illumination touches both the poles because at this position, the
inclination of the Earth's axis does not have any effect on the duration of the day.
3. The Sun‟s rays are overhead at the equator making 90° angle. 4. The altitude of the Sun‟s rays decrease as one goes away from the equator to the
poles. For example, the altitude of Sun's rays at 60° S latitude would be. 90° -60°
= 30°. At the two poles, the Sun appears at the horizon where the altitude of the
Sun's rays = 90° - 90° = 0°.
THE MIDNIGHT SUN
It is observed that the seasonal variation in the duration of the day and night is
minimum at the equator. As one moves away from the equator, the seasonal variation
in the duration of daylight increases and it is maximum at the polar region.
Duration of day and night varies according to the season experience in a particular
hemisphere. During summer solstice (21st of June), the North Pole is inclined
towards the Sun so the region beyond the Arctic Circle experiences 24 hours
continuous daylight. The areas located in the frigid zone of the Northern Hemisphere,
especially Norway, is known as the land of “Midnight Sun” because there the Sun does not set or rise on the 21st of June.
This place has continuous daylight from mid of May to mid of July. The Sun does not
sink below the horizon and this causes the phenomenon of “Midnight Sun” which can be observed at any point between the Arctic Circle and the North Pole. The North
Cape near Hammerfest in Norway is a place of tourist attraction. Many tourist go to
observe the phenomenon of the “Midnight Sun”. The North Pole experiences six months daylight where the Sun is above the horizon at the low angle.
Either of two hemispheres which is inclined towards the Sun will have summer season and
the frigid zone of that particular hemisphere will have six months continuous day light. On
the other hand, the hemisphere that is tilted away from the Sun will have winter season and
the frigid zone of that particular hemisphere will have continuous nights for six months.
TWILIGHT-DAWN AND DUSK
We do not see the abrupt change from day to night or from night to day. There is
always a transition period between day and night as well as night and day. This
transition period of faint light starts when the Sun is up to 18° below the horizon
before the Sunrise or after Sunset. There is a period of diffused light known as
twilight that is produced by scattering of air molecules, minute particles of dust
and water vapour which reflect the Sun‟s rays back to the Earth‟s surface. DAWN starts from the time the Sun is 18° below the horizon and last till the Sun
rises above the horizon, while DUSK is the period of diffused light after Sunset
and it continues as long as the Sun is up to 18° below the horizon.
The duration of twilight or dawn and dusk varies with latitudes and seasons. It
increases from the equator towards the poles. It depends on the path of the Sun in
the sky. The Sun‟s path is always vertical at low latitudes (near the equator) so the period of dawn and dusk is short because the Sun rises or sinks below the horizon
rapidly. On the other hand at middle or high latitude, due to the inclined axis and
curvature of the Earth‟s surface, the Sun has an inclined path at the low angle so the duration of twilight or dawn and dusk is long which lasts for many days.
Seasons have great impact on our life. Variation in seasons is necessary for the
growing and repairing of crops. Different crops have different growing seasons.
Seasonal changes affect the behaviour of all living things. Plants have their season
for shedding their leaves or bearing fruits and flowers. Animals, birds and fish also
have their particular season for breeding or migrating.
Now answer the following questions based upon your reading
Explain summer solstice in brief
Explain winter solstice in brief
What do Twilight or dawn and dusk mean. How do they occur?

Answers of Geography Worksheet - 4
1. Rotation is the spinning of the earth around its own axis from west to east.
2. A)When the north pole is tilted towards the sun it is summer in the Northern
hemisphere why southern hemisphere experience winter at the same time.
B) Due to the inclination of the earth‟s Axis the length of day and night different from place to place.
3. (I) The apparent movement of the Sun, The moon, the stars and other planets from
east to west across the sky is due to the rotation of the earth from west to east.
That is why the sun appears to rise in the east and set in the West everyday.
(II )The coriolis force is caused by the rotation of the Earth which is responsible for the
deflects the winds and ocean currents.
(III) The tides occur twice a day and their westward progress is due to the rotation
of the earth from west to east.
(IV) Occurrence of day and night-eastern parts experience the new day earlier
than the Western parts.
4. (A)Circle of illumination is defined as an imaginary line demarcating day and
night.as the Earth rotates from west to east every part on its faces the sun at least
once a day the eastern parts experience a new day earlier than the Western parts.
(B)Leap year-the earth completes its one Revolution around the sun
approximately 365 days and 6 hours. To accommodate the additional 6 hours or
one fourth of a day each year every fourth year (divisible by number 4) is taken as
a leap year. In a leap year there are 366 days instead of 365 days an extra day is
added to the month of February having 29 days.
(C)Parallelism- the earth's axis is inclined by 23 ½° from the vertical plane or it
makes an angle of 66 ½° with the plane of its orbit.it never changes its direction
as it always points the Polaris or the pole star throughout the earth's Revolution
around the sun. This is known as parallelism of the earth's axis.
(D)Orbit is the path along which the Earth revolves around the sun in an
anticlockwise direction.
(E)Axis
The axis of the Earth is an imaginary line passing through the centre of the
Earth on which it rotates
The Earth takes 24 hours to complete one rotation on its own axis
The to poles namely the north pole and the South Pole make two ends or
limits of the Axis.
The axis is not vertical but it makes an angle of 23 ½° with the vertical or
66 ½° with the plane of the earth‟s orbit that is known as tilt of the earth‟s axis.

BALANCING EQUATIONS CONTINUED….
Consider:
This example illustrates the fundamental aspects of any chemical equation:
1. The substances undergoing reaction are called reactants, and their formulas are
placed on the left side of the equation.
2. The substances generated by the reaction are called products, and their formulas
are placed on the right sight of the equation.
3. Plus signs (+) separate individual reactant and product formulas, and an arrow (→)
separates the reactant and product (left and right) sides of the equation.
4. The relative numbers of reactant and product species are represented
by coefficients (numbers placed immediately to the left of each formula). A
coefficient of 1 is typically omitted.
5. It is common practice to use the smallest possible whole-number coefficients in a
chemical equation.
EXAMPLE 1:
(UNBALANCED)
Comparing the number of H and O atoms on either side of this equation confirms
its imbalance:
Element Reactants Products Balanced?
H 1 × 2 = 2 1 × 2 = 2 2 = 2, yes
O 1 × 1 = 1 1 × 2 = 2 1 ≠ 2, no
The numbers of H atoms on the reactant and product sides of the equation are
equal, but the numbers of O atoms are not.
To achieve balance, the coefficients of the equation may be changed as needed.
Keep in mind, of course, that the formula subscripts cannot be changed because
that will change the identity of the substance.
(BALANCED)
EXAMPLE 2:
First, write the unbalanced equation:
N2+O2→N2O5(unbalanced)
Next, count the number of each type of atom present in the unbalanced equation.
Element Reactants Products Balanced?
N 1 × 2 = 2 1 × 2 = 2 2 = 2, yes
O 1 × 2 = 2 1 × 5 = 5 2 ≠ 5, no
Though nitrogen is balanced, changes in coefficients are needed to balance the
number of oxygen atoms.
To balance the number of oxygen atoms, a reasonable first attempt would be to
change the coefficients for the O2 and N2O5 to integers that will yield 10 O atoms
(the least common multiple for the O atom subscripts in these two formulas
(UNBALANCED)
Element Reactants Products Balanced?
N 1 × 2 = 2 2 × 2 = 4 2 ≠ 4, no
O 5 × 2 = 10 2 × 5 = 10 10 = 10, yes
The N atom balance has been upset by this change; it is restored by changing the
coefficient for the reactant N2 to 2.
(BALANCED)
Element Reactants Products Balanced?
N 2 × 2 = 4 2 × 2 = 4 4 = 4, yes
O 5 × 2 = 10 2 × 5 = 10 10 = 10, yes
The numbers of N and O atoms on either side of the equation are now equal, and
so the equation is balanced.
Balance the following equations:
1. PCl5(s)+H2O(l)→POCl3(l)+HCl(aq)
2. Cu(s)+HNO3(aq)→Cu(NO3)2(aq)+H2O(l)+NO
3. H2(g)+I2(s)→HI(s)
4. Fe(s)+O2(g)→Fe2O3(s)Fe(s)+O2(g)→Fe2O3(s)
5. Na(s)+H2O(l)→NaOH(aq)+H2(g)
6. (NH4)2Cr2O7(s)→Cr2O3(s)+N2(g)+H2O(g)
7. P4(s)+Cl2(g)→PCl3(l)
8. PtCl4(s)→Pt(s)+Cl2(g)

CHAPTER-SEEDS-STRUCTURE and GERMINATION (PART-2)
GERMINATION-It is the process of formation of a seedling developed from the
embryo of the seed.
CONDITIONS NECESARRY FOR GERMINATION ARE AS FOLLOWS:
1. WATER-The seed obtains water from the soil and the water is mainly absorbed
through the micropyle.
2. Suitable Temperature- A moderately warm temperature (25deg C. to 35deg C.) is
usually favorable for germination called optimum temperature. A very low
temperature inhibits the growth of the embryo and a very high temperature
destroys its delicate tissues.
3. Oxygen-Seeds only do respiration for which they need supply of oxygen.
SOME EXPERIMENTS ON GERMINATION
1. Experiment to prove that water is necessary for germination
Take two beakers and mark them A and B. In beaker a place some pea seeds on
wet cotton wool and place some seeds on dry cotton wool. Keep both beakers in
an ordinary room. In a day or two, the seeds in beaker A will germinate but seeds
in beaker B will not germinate.
2. Experiment to prove suitable temperature is necessary for germination.
Keep beaker A containing pea seeds on wet cotton wool in an ordinary room and
beaker B containing pea seeds on wet cotton wool in a refrigerator.
The seeds in beaker B may not show signs of germination but seed in beaker A
will germinate.
3. Experiment to prove that oxygen is necessary for germination.
4. Three bean seed experiment
The experimental setup is place in a warm place for few days and the result
is as follows:
The top seed does germinate at all as it
gets only oxygen but no water.
The bottom seed does not germinate or
stops germinating after emergence of
radicle. It gets water but very little oxygen.
The middle seed germinates as it gets
both oxygen and water.
TYPES OF GERMINATION The region of axis between the point of attachment of cotyledons and the plumule is
called epicotyl.
The region of the axis below the cotelydons is called Hypocotyl.
There are two types of germination
Hypogeal germination(Pea,Gram,Maize)
Epigeal Germination(Bean,Castor)
VIVIPAROUS GERMINATION-

PROFIT AND NON PROFIT ORGANISATIONS
MEANING OF PROFIT SEEKING ORGANISATIONS
Organisations which are established and operated primarily with the motive of earning
profits may be described as profit seeking organisations. Profit seeking organisations are
basically business organisations. No business organisation can survive for long without
earning some profit.
A profit seeking organisation is engaged in the production/purchase and sale of goods
and services on regular basis with the object of earning profit by satisfying human wants.
It undertakes economic activities. A grocery shop, a sugar mill, an automobile repair
workshop, a truck company are examples of profit seeking organisations.
MEANING AND TYPES OF NON-PROFIT ORGANISATIONS
Non-profit organisations are those organisations which are set up and run not to earn profits
but to serve the society. Some examples of non-profit organisations are given below:
1. Charitable organisations: These organisations exist to provide financial assistance
(donations, etc.) for various social causes. For example, Tatas and many other industrial
houses have established charitable trusts which provide scholarships for higher education to
young persons, mainly from poor families, e.g. Ratan Tata Trust.
2. Educational organisations: Business houses have also set up schools and colleges which
offer educational facilities to public at nominal cost. Central and State Governments have set
up schools, colleges, universities, IITs, IIMs, libraries and other educational institutions for
the development of human resources in the country. These are different from private
educational institutions which have been set up to earn money, e.g. Council for Indian
School Certificate Examination.
3. Religious organisations: Temples, Churches, Gurudwaras, Masjids, etc. exist to provide
facilities to people for their religious activities, e.g. Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee.
4. Public health organisations: Public hospitals and dispensaries are set up to provide free
medical facilities to public in general. In a poor country like India, these organisations play a
vital role in the promotion of public health, e.g. Sulabh International.
5. Municipal organisations: Municipal authorities in every state and union territory provide
sewage disposal, water, electricity, sanitation and other essential services to people, e.g. New
Delhi Municipal Corporation..
6.Political organisations: Political parties exist to protect and promote the political interests
of their members. They sponsor and support candidates during elections and carry out
various political functions, e.g. Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP).
7. Mutual benefit organisations: These are voluntary associations set up for the benefit of
their members and the public. Clubs and trade unions are examples of such organisations,
e.g. Hind Mazdoor Sabha (HMS).
8. Common Weal Organisation : These organisations are established for the benefit of the
public at large or the whole society. Army, police, fire-service, etc. are examples of common
weal organisations. For instance, an army defends the whole country and not part of it from
foreign aggression.
COMPARISON BETWEEN PROFIT AND NON-PROFIT ORGANISATIONS
CHARITABLE ORGANISATIONS
Our society is divided into rich and poor people. Rich people have the means to meet all their
requirements. They lead a luxurious life. But poor people find it difficult to meet their
essential needs of food, clothing and shelter. In India, most of the people are poor. A part of
the population lives even below the poverty line. In such a situation, Government, rich
people and voluntary agencies can help the poor in various ways. They can set up trusts and
other organisations to offer financial assistance in cash and kind for the welfare of poor and
downtrodden. These organisations are called charitable organisations. Some examples of
these organisations are as follows:
1. Educational Trusts: These trusts run schools and colleges to provide free education to
poor people. They also offer scholarships and loans to bright children from poor families.
Some of them run free libraries.
2.Clubs: Clubs such as Lions and Rotary, organise blood donation camps. These
organisations also provide help to the victims of natural calamities such as flood, fire,
earthquake, etc.
3.Voluntary associations: Many organisations have set up Dharmshalas, night-shelters, etc.
to provide accommodation to the people who have no place to stay. Many charitable bodies
donate money to the National Defence Fund, Prime Minister‟s Relief Fund, etc.
ORGANISATION OF NON-PROFIT ORGANISATIONS
There exist a wide variety of non-profit organisations. Some of them are member-serving
while others are community serving. Mutual societies, cooperatives, trade unions, credit
unions, industry, associations, sports clubs and senior citizens‟ clubs serve their members. Red cross, Child Relief and You (CRY), Help Age, are examples of community serving
organisations. Although, non-profit organisations generate surplus revenues but the surplus is
not distributed. Non-profit organisations are usually organised as societies, trusts and non-
profit companies.
1. Societies: A society is a group of ten or more persons who associate voluntarily and
register it under the Cooperative Societies Act 1912 to protect and promote their common
interests. Every member has one vote and the society is managed by an executive committee
elected by the members. The executive committee elects President, Vice President, Secretary
and Joint Secretary. Kaira District Cooperative Society (producer of AMUL brand, milk
products) is an example.
2. Trusts: Trusts are set up to further social causes such as public health and education.
Trusts are exempted from income-tax. A trust is formed when a rich person or entity
transfers property in cash or kind and a trust agreement is executed. The trust is registered
under the Indian Trusts Act. The trust is managed by a group of trustees for the beneficiaries.
In India, trusts run temples, educational institutions, medical institutes, etc. Sir Dorabji Tata
Trust offers scholarships to students belonging to weaker sections of the society for pursuing
higher education.
3. Non-Profit Companies: A non-profit company is a company that is registered under the
Companies Act, 2013 for purposes other than earning profits and distributing them to its
members. It is managed by a Board of Directors. The directors are elected by the members of
the company. Sulabh International is a non-profit company.
Q1. Define non-profit organisations.
Q2. Discuss any three types of non-profit organisations.
Q3. Define Trusts.
Q4. Differentiate between profit and non-profit organisations.
Q5. What is common weal organisation?
Answer key of Commercial Studies Worksheet-3
Ans:1 Commerce is concerned with the buying, selling and distribution of commodities.
Commerce consists of all those activities which are essential for maintaining a free flow of
goods and services from producers to consumers. In other words, commerce comprises trade
and various auxiliaries to trade.
Ans:2 Trade means buying and selling of goods. It involves the exchange of commodities for
money or money‟s worth.Traders serve as the link between producers and consumers. Trade
is the nucleus of commerce. Other parts of commerce such as transport, insurance,
warehousing, banking and advertising revolve around trade.
Ans:3 Wholesale trade: Wholesale trade is concerned with buying goods from
manufacturers or dealers or producers in large quantities and selling them in smaller
quantities to others who may be retailers or even consumers. The persons engaged in
wholesale trade are called „wholesalers‟. They serve as a link between producers and
retailers.
Retail trade: Retail trade refers to buying of goods from wholesalers and manufacturers and
selling them in small quantity directly to the ultimate consumers. Persons engaged in retail
trade are called „retailers‟. They serve as a link between wholesaler and final consumer.
Ans:4 Foreign Trade refers to buying and selling of goods and services between different
countries. In this trade, the seller and buyer belongs to different countries. It is also known as
International Trade or External Trade. It may further be divided as follows:
(a) Import Trade: It means purchasing goods and services from other countries. For
example, India imports petroleum products from Iran and Iraq.
(b) Export Trade: It involves selling goods and services to other countries. For example,
India exports tea to USA and UK.
(c ) Entrepot Trade: It means importing goods from one or more countries with the purpose
of exporting them to some other country or countries. For example, India may export some
oil imported from Iraq to Bangladesh.
Ans:5 Aids to trade refer to those activities which facilitate buying and selling of goods and
services. The main aids to trade are as follows:
1. Transportation: Transportation refers to the conveyance of goods and passengers
from one place to another. It helps trade by assembling and distributing goods. It
overcomes the barrier of distance and creates place utility. For example, tea is grown
in Assam and Darjeeling and is used throughout the country.
2. Warehousing: Nowadays goods are produced in the anticipation of demand. It is,
therefore, necessary to store goods until they are sold. Many products such as wheat,
sugar, rice, etc, are produced in a particular season but they are needed throughout the
year. Warehousing removes the hindrance of time and thereby creates time utility.
3. Banking: There is usually a time gap between production, purchase and sale of
goods. During this period businessmen need funds to carry on their business. Banks
provide credit to businessmen in various forms. They help business activity by
providing safe and quick means for the transfer of money. Banking removes the
hindrance of raising finance and credit on one‟s own. 4. Insurance: Business involves several types of risk. Insurance removes the hindrance
of risk. With the help of insurance, a businessman can protect himself from several
types of risks. There are various types of insurance, fire insurance, marine insurance,
workmen‟s compensation insurance, life insurance, etc.

Class 9 Economics Worksheet-4
CHAPTER-2 (BASIC CONCEPTS OF ECONOMICS)
NOTE: In Economics, we make use of certain concepts and terms. This knowledge
becomes essential in study of economics. There is a lot of difference in the meaning of
these terms as used in ordinary life and in economics. So some basic concepts used
frequently in economics will be explained to you now.
1. (HUMAN WANTS)
Want: “means desire for a thing which is supported by an effort to acquire the same”
By wants we mean the desires of human beings for goods and services. Goods
possessing utility can satisfy human wants. Thus a want is a desire to acquire
something and the willingness to put in an effort to acquire it. To a layman the words
'want' and 'desire' have the same meaning. but in economics these two are different.
'Desire' is the wish to have something. But 'want' is an effective desire for a particular
thing, which can be satisfied by making an effort to acquire it. Example you may
desire to have a bike, but it would become your want only if you are ready to make an
effort , like earning an income, to acquire it.
What are human wants in economics?
All the desires and aspirations and motives of humans are known as human wants in
economics. And the wants that can be satisfied with goods and services of any kind
are economic wants for example food, shelter, clothing, etc are economic human wants.
What are needs and wants in economics?
Needs are something that you must have, in order to live. On the contrary, wants are
something that you wish to have, so as to add comforts in your life. Needs represents
the necessities while wants indicate desires. Needs are important for the human being to
survive.
What are the types of wants?
Human wants can be classified into three categories necessaries, comforts and luxuries.
Check this link: https://youtu.be/JF7M-WYiCxc
Necessaries: refer to the basic or primary wants for food, clothing, shelter, medical
care, education etc.
Necessaries are those goods and services the consumption of which is considered
indispensable. They are of three types:
(a) Necessaries of life or existence - which are necessary for survival or existence. The
wants for food, cloth, shelter fall under this category
(b) Necessaries of efficiency - which increase our efficiency, energy and ability to
work. Goods like milk, fruits, vegetables etc. are included in this category.
(c) Conventional necessaries - which have to be satisfied to maintain the conventions
prevailing in a society. Many wants are satisfied due to the force of social customs and
conventions. They cannot be avoided. For example, expenditure on marriage
ceremonies, religious functions, funeral ceremonies etc.
Comforts: Comforts refer to the goods and services which make life easier and
comfortable. Example: Furniture, electric fan, washing machine.
Luxuries: Wants for luxuries refer to those goods, which are used for leading a
luxurious life. These include costly cars, expensive clothes, gold ornaments etc. Some
luxuries are harmless like air conditions, costly cars, expensive clothes etc, but some
luxuries are harmful like wine, gambling etc.
What are examples of economic wants? The wants that can be satisfied with goods and
services of any kind are economic wants for example food, shelter, clothing, etc
are economic human wants. And those which cannot be bought are non-economic
wants like peace, love, affection, etc. All human wants to have some basic common
characteristics.
Characteristics of Human Wants: Human wants have certain characteristics or
features, which can be explained as below.
1. Wants are Unlimited: Man is a bundle of wants and his wants are numerous. Man
remains busy throughout his life in order to satisfy these wants. When one want is
satisfied, another want crops up. In this way, wants arise one after another. Thus wants
are unlimited.
2. Each Particular Want can be satisfied: We cannot satisfy all our wants because
the means to satisfy them are limited. But a person can satisfy a particular want.
For example, hunger can be satisfied by taking food. He may take one, two, three or
more pieces of bread. Ultimately, he will say that he does not want more bread.
3. Wants are Competitive: We can satisfy only a few wants and not all wants
because our means are limited. Therefore, we always have to make a relative
comparison of the intensity of our different wants. Only that want is satisfied first
which is the most urgent.
Example: A student has Rs. 20 with him. With this amount he can purchase either a
copy or see a picture. Now there will arise a competition between his want for a
copy and for a picture. If his intensity for the copy is more intense, he will purchase
the copy, instead of seeing the picture. In this way, there is always a competition
among our various wants
4. Wants are Complementary: Wants are competitive but a few wants are
complementary to each other. To satisfy one want for a good, we have to arrange
for another good also. For example, the want for a car can be satisfied only when
we fulfill the want for petrol also. Such wants are called complementary.
5. Wants are Alternative: Some wants are alternative. We can satisfy our hunger
either with rice, bread, vegetables, fruit, meat, eggs, milk, etc.
ANSWER THE FOLLOWING:
Q1. Define the term Want?
Q2. Mention two characteristics of wants?
Q3. Show classification of wants through a diagram?
Answer key of Economics Worksheet-3
1. Name the main sectors of Indian economy.
ANS: There are three sectors in the Indian economy, they are Primary economy,
Secondary economy, and Tertiary economy.
2. What is a Primary sector? Give examples of primary sector.
ANS: The primary sector consists of agriculture, animal husbandry, dairying, poultry,
forestry and fisheries. In this sector of the economy, goods are produced by exploiting
economy's natural resources. For example, nature has a great hand in the production of
agricultural commodities.
Likewise, nature cooperates with man in producing wood or timber, in raising cattle or in
catching fish. Goods produced by this sector are known as primary goods. Primary sector
largely consists of the agricultural sector.
3 . What is a Secondary sector? Give examples of secondary sector.
ANS: The secondary sector of the Indian economy includes activities relating to
manufacturing and construction. Under manufacturing all types of industries - small-scale
and large-scale industries are included. At present, handloom cloth, matches, toys, pottery,
etc., are produced by our small-scale industries. Large- scale industries, on the other hand,
produce goods in large quantities which are sold all over the country and also exported to
other countries. Secondary sector also includes all kinds of construction activities.
4. What is a Tertiary sector? Give Examples of a tertiary sector.
ANS: Tertiary means third in order. It does not produce goods but produces services.
That is why it is known as the service sector. Services like transport, banking, insurance,
communication, etc. are produced by this sector. Service sector also includes trade
(domestic or international trade commonly called exports and imports). There are some
people who provide professional services such as teachers, doctors, engineers, chartered
accountants, barbers etc. They also form part of this sector, services provided by the
government constitutes an important component of the service sector.
5. Distinguish between the three sectors of Indian Economy.
ANS: Distinction shown in the table below:

Computing and Ethics
12.6.1 Cyber Law
Cyber law is the area of law that deals with legal issues related to the use of the Internet.
With the increase in the number of crimes related to the Internet, there was an urgent
need to introduce an act of law against such crimes. With this view in mind, the Indian
Government introduced the Information Technology Act 2000 also known as ITA-2000
or IT Act on October 17, 2000. Further amendments were made to this act under ITAA-
2008 to include additional cybercrimes like:
Sending offensive messages through electronic communication and causing
annoyance.
Misleading or deceiving the recipient about the origin of messages.
Dishonestly receiving stolen computer resources or communication devices.
Electronic signature or other identity theft like using others password or electronic
signature.
Cheating by personation using a computer or a communication device.
publishing or transmitting private information about any person without his or her
consent.
Cyber terrorism - intent to threaten the unity, integrity, security or sovereignty of
the nation.
Child pornography - depicting children engaged in a sexual activity, creating text
or digital images or advertising or promoting such material.
12.2.1 Reporting a cybercrime
In case you face any cybercrime, follow these guidelines:
You should immediately report the matter to parents or school authorities.
Parents can visit a nearby police station and can lodge a complaint.
The Information Technology Act has a global jurisdiction. It means that you can lodge a
complaint against the crime from any state or city.
To register a complaint or know more about the cyber law, you can visit the website:

12.7 Hacking
Hacking refers to an illegal intrusion into a computer system or network. This leads to
breaking passwords, stealing valuable data, installing viruses, encrypting computer hard
disks and demanding ransom money. The people involved in these activities are called
Hackers. Hackers are highly technical people who write or use ready-made computer
programs to attack the target computer. They not only steal important data but also hack
applications and websites to change program's logic.
Some of the motives behind hacking include:
Greed
Power
Publicity
Revenge
Adventure and thrill
Destructive mindset
A desire to access forbidden information
Although hacking is done without any consent from the user, yet it is not always
destructive. Hacking that is done for a good cause, such as national security or to stop
crimes and fraud, is known as Ethical hacking.
12.8 Malicious Intent and Malicious Code
Malicious code is harmful computer code or web script designed to exploit system
vulnerabilities. The malicious code on activating itself creates backdoor entries. This
leads to security breaches, information and data theft and other potential damages to
computer systems. Malicious code is propagated with a malicious intent. Malicious intent
refers to the intent Computing and Ethics to commit a wrongful act without any reason
that will harm other person's computer or an organization.
Various ways that can lead to malicious code to get into your system are:
Visiting infected websites.
Clicking dubious email links or attachments.
Downloading pirated files/software.
Not all kind of antivirus software protect from the infections caused by the malicious
code. Usually, the victims of the malicious code attack remain ignorant until it is too late
to do anything. Once inside the system, malicious code can enter network drives and
propagate. It can steal passwords, data, delete emails or documents and even format hard
drives.
Let's Know More
Hacking a web server or taking control of another person's website is called Web Hijacking.
Know the Fact
Ankit Fadia is a well-known ethical hacker in India.
Let’s Know More A backdoor entry is a secret method of bypassing normal authentication or encryption in a computer system.
12.2.2 Protection against Malicious Intent and Malicious Code
The following precautions are your best defense against the malicious code:
Use robust antivirus software with features like automatic updates, malware
removal capabilities, and web browsing security.
Regularly scan your hard disk for any viruses, spyware, and malware.
Avoid using the pen/USB drives from other persons on your computer as they may
be infected.
If you sense an email from a dubious source, delete it and inform the school
authorities.
Don't download pirated/counterfeit software including music and videos on your
computer.
Don't install unnecessary or unsolicited web browser plug-ins.
