Plastics are resistant to many chemicals, water and air. Plastics are polymers that are inexpensive and quite
strong. Some plastics which soften and get deformed on heating are called thermoplastics. They can be
remolded as many times as desired. PVC is one such plastic. It is good for making coverings around electrical
wires & electrical tapes. It is also used for making raincoats, floor tiles and waterproof coatings of folders and
bags. Polystyrene can also be remoulded easily and used to make insulating packaging material and hot drink
cups etc. On the other hand, there are certain plastics which do not get deformed on heating, instead harden.
Once set these plastics cannot be reshaped even on heating. Such plastics are called thermosetting plastics.
Bakelite cannot be remoulded and therefore used in making electrical plugs and switches. Melamine does not
get deformed on heating and is used for making crockery. These are very light and durable.

COMPUTER SCIENCE
Read the following passage and answer the questions accordingly:
The First Computer Programmer ---- Ada Lovelace was the daughter of the poet Lord Byron. She was
taught by Mary Somerville, a well-known researcher and scientific author, who introduced her to
Charles Babbage in June 1833. Babbage was an English mathematician, who first had the idea for a
programmable computer.
In 1842 and 1843, Ada translated the work of an Italian Mathematician, Luigi Menabrea, on Babbage's
Analytical Engine. Though mechanical, this machine was an important step in the history of computers;
it was the design of a mechanical general-purpose computer. Babbage worked on it for many years until
his death in 1871. However, because of financial, political, and legal issues, the engine was never built.
The design of the machine was very modern; it anticipated the first completed general-purpose
computers by about 100 years.
When Ada translated the article, she added a set of notes which specified in complete detail a method for
calculating certain numbers with the Analytical Engine, which have since been recognized by historians
as the world's first computer program. She also saw possibilities in it that Babbage hadn't: she realized
that the machine could compose pieces of music. The computer programming language 'Ada', used in
some aviation and military programs, is named after her.
