Air around Us, NCERT NOTES, Class 6

 

Air around Us
Clouds

The vast white fluffy clouds seen in the blue sky is actually millions of tiny water droplets held up by air.

The water vapour that evaporates from seas, rivers and other water bodies travels up into the sky to form clouds.

Air is everywhere

  • We cannot see air, but we can feel its presence in so many ways.
  • The leaves of the trees rustle or the clothes hanging on a clothesline sway because of the presence of air.
  • Pages of an open book begin fluttering when the fan is switched on.
  • Our earth is surrounded by a thin layer of air.
  • This layer extends up to many kilometres above the surface of the earth and is called atmosphere.

Colour of air

Air has no colour and one can see through it. It is transparent.

Moving air

Moving air can be termed as wind.

We can feel the wind as it sways leaves on a tree or during storms the wind blows at a very high speed even uprooting trees in their way.
Wind

Atmosphere

The layer of air that covers the Earth extends upto some kilometres in space, this is the atmosphere.

Air as a Mixture

Air is a mixture of different gases and particles; oxygen, water vapour, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, dust and smoke.

Main components of Air

The main constituents of air are nitrogen and oxygen. Air is 78 percent nitrogen, just under 21 percent oxygen, and the rest is water vapor, carbon dioxide and small concentrations of other gases.

Water vapour

Water vapour is present in the air as a gaseous form of water and is responsible for humidity.

Dust and smoke

The minor particles that are present in air. High amount of these particles in air can cause pollution.

Breathing in animals

Animals take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide during respiration.
Breathing in humans

Breathing in plants

Plants respire through the process of photosynthesis. In this process, they take in carbon dioxide and give out oxygen as a waste which we breathe in.

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a biological process used by plants to prepare their food with the help of sunlight and energy. Carbon dioxide is taken in and oxygen is given out as a waste product in this process.
Photosynthesis

Breathing in fish

Oxygen dissolved in water is used by fishes to breathe.

Symbiotic cycle

  • Organisms usually come together where each benefits from the other.
  • We get oxygen and other products from plants and they get not only carbon dioxide but other advantages from us.
  • This is in the form of a cycle. Respiration and photosynthesis lead to recycling of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the environment.

Fire

Fire requires oxygen for sustenance.

ALL ABOUT PINHOLE CAMERA, NCERT NOTES, CLASS 6

  PINHOLE CAMERA The pinhole camera is based on the principle that light travels in a straight line. Construction of a Pinhole Camera- To construct a pinhole camera follow the steps described below - Take a small box like a shoebox. Paint the box entirely in black to light-proof it Appropriately determine the distance between the film of plastic or ground glass and light source and make a circular pinhole on the bottom of the box Make a shutter by cutting a piece of thick black chart paper. Use sturdy duct tape to hold the shutter in place Use a light adhesive to control the shutter flap and light entering the box Make a viewfinder out of cardboard. Pinhole Camera Image Characteristics- A real image is obtained as the image is obtained on the screen. The size of the image obtained is comparatively smaller than the actual object. The image is inverted on the x-axis as well as on the y-axis. The image can be used in the analysis of the rectilinear propagation of the light. Uses of...

How do vaccines work?

  How do vaccines work? The immune system These viruses go on to infect other cells. This causes havoc and this is where our immune system comes to our rescue. The immune system has a whole army of microscopic assassins that prevent these viruses from turning our body into a virus manufacturing unit factory. Now the immune system responds in two ways to protect us. One is the innate or non-specific immunity and another is the adaptive or specific immunity. Innate Immunity As the name suggests, this kind of immunity is there from birth and is non-specific which means that it responds to all kinds of pathogens in the same way. Its ultimate job is to kill the pathogen. The need here is to actually get into action very very quickly. In fact, as soon as the pathogens are detected. We can think about this type of immunity as more bran and less brain. The cells of the innate immunity go berserk as soon as they know that there are pathogens around. They are like the mad assassins trying to...

What is mucilage, how does it emerge?

  What is mucilage, how does it emerge ? Mucilage or "sea snot" is the result of the overgrowth of microscopic algae called "Phytoplankton", which constitutes the first step of biological production in the sea. The thick, mucus-like slimy layer contains a variety of microorganisms.  Mucilage formation, which is a secretion released into seawater in response to changes and anomalies in sea conditions, requires a stagnant sea as well as a high amount of nitrogen and phosphorus contents.  Mucilage, which is a part of a natural process under normal conditions, can expand excessively when the weather gets warmer in the spring months and it finds the right temperature and light.  However, as in the case of the Sea of Marmara, experts say the structure of the sea, as well as intense pollution and waste, and global climate change, are the main reasons beyond such intense mucilage formation.
