 Important Terms


Adulteration: It is the practice of mixing bad substances in a good substance which is sold in the market.


Agmark: It is implemented under the “Agricultural Produce Act 1937". It was amended in the year 1986 and it covers products like Honey, species, etc.


Market Place: It is a place where buyers and sellers come together to exchange goods and services.


COPRA: Consumer Protection Act, 1986.

.

Consumer: The person who uses goods and services for his self-consumption


Customer: The person who buys goods and avails services from the market is called customer.


Consumer Awareness: Consumer's consciousness towards their rights and the social and legal obligations of the business and the government towards consumers is known as consumer's awareness.


► Points to Remember


Consumer protection means protection of consumers against wrong practices of sellers in the market.


The rights which help the consumer in protecting himself from being exploited are known as consumer rights.


World consumer day is observed every year on 15th march of every year.


Right to information act 2005 is the act gives rights to the citizen of the country to have information about the government departments ,their policies, practices and procedures.


Ralph nadar was the father of the consumer movement.


Maximum retail price (MRP) is a maximum retail price printed on packaged goods. The seller cannot charge a price more than MRP.


Public distribution system is also known as ration shop. The aim of PDS is to prevent hoarding, black marketing etc.

Consumer courts are the courts dealing in consumers cases only.


The enactment of COPRA has led to the setting up of separate departments of consumer affairs in central and state governments. Due to the enactment of COPRA consumer awareness is spreading but slowly.

Work, Energy, and Power – Class 11 Physics NCERT | Formulas, Derivations & Examples

⚡ Work, Energy, and Power – Class 11 Physics (NCERT) This chapter from Class 11 Physics NCERT explains the basic concepts of Work , different forms of Energy , and the concept of Power . These are foundational ideas used in all branches of physics. 🧱 What is Work? Work is said to be done when a force is applied on a body and there is displacement in the direction of the force. Work (W) = F × d × cosθ F = Force d = Displacement θ = Angle between force and displacement ✅ Types of Work Positive Work → θ < 90° Negative Work → θ > 90° Zero Work → θ = 90° (e.g., circular motion) SI Unit: Joule (J) 🔋 What is Energy? Energy is the capacity to do work. It exists in various forms: mechanical, thermal, chemical, electrical, etc. 🔹 Kinetic Energy (K.E.) Energy possessed by a body due to motion. K.E. = ½mv² 🔹 Potential Energy (P.E.) Energy possessed due to position or configuration. P.E. = mgh Total Mecha...

Questions from potentiometer

  Potentiometer Questions from potentiometer Q1. Why is a potentiometer preferred over a voltmeter for measuring the emf of a cell? Ans. Potentiometer work on null method, It does not draw any current from the cell thus there there is no potential drop due to the internal resistance of the cell. It measures the potential difference in an open circuit which is equal to the actual EMF of the cell. It is very accurate device. On the other hand, voltmeter draw small current from the cell for its operation. So it measures terminal potential difference in a closed circuit which is less than EMF of the cell Q2. The sensitivity of a potentiometer increases with increase in length of its wire. Explain why? Ans. When the length of the wire increases the fall of potential per unit length of the wire become smaller (i.e potential gradient K= V/L ). Hence even a small potential difference can be measured. Q3. Sometime the balance point in the potentiometer may not be obtained on the wire ...
