The near point of an eye is 48.5 cm. A corrective lens is to be used to allow this eye to focus clearly on objects at the distan

ce of the healthy near point. What should be the focal length of this lens

Answer:

The focal length of the lens should be -51.5 cm (a concave lens).

Explanation:

The purpose of the lens is to make objects at 48.5 cm appear at the healthy near point. The healthy near point is 25.0 cm.

We use the lens formula

\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{u} + \dfrac{1}{v}

where <em>f</em> = focal length, <em>u</em> = object distance and <em>v</em> = image distance.

In this case, <em>u</em> = 48.5 cm and <em>v</em> = -25.0 cm.

<em>v</em> is negative because the image is virtual an not real. (Here, we are using the real-is-positive sign convention)

\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{48.5} + \dfrac{1}{-25.0} = -\dfrac{23.5}{1212.5}

f = -51.5

The negative sign indicates the lens is concave.

Why do we not consider the strong nuclear force when we describe the forces between atoms?
solong [7]

This is because, nuclear forces are short range forces.

The protons and neutrons are collectively called nucleons and they are found in the nucleus of an atom. These nucleons are held together by a strong attractive force called the nuclear force.

When atoms combine, they are held together by forces determined by electrons in the outermost shell. The influence of the nuclear force does not extend beyond the nucleus because they are short range forces.

Hence, we not consider the strong nuclear force when we describe the forces between atoms.

An electric motor rotates 60 times per second if the alternating current source is 60 Hz. How many times will an electric motor
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

180,000

Explanation:

Frequency is a quantity that is measured in Hertz [Hz] and it represents the number of rotations per second.

A motor with a frequency of 50 Hz will rotate 50 times per second.

Since we don't want to know how many times it rotates per second, but per hour. The first step is to find how many seconds there are in an hour and then multiply that amount by 50.

Seconds in an hour:

there are 60 seconds per minute, and 60 minutes per hour, thus there are

60*60 = <u>3,600 seconds in an hour</u>

We know that the motor will rotate 50 times per second so to find the number of rotations in 1 hour =  3,600 seconds we multiply:

50*3,600 = 180,000 rotations

The intensity of the Sun's light in the vicinity of the Earth is about 1000W/m^2. Imagine a spacecraft with a mirrored square sa
NeX [460]

Explanation:

Formula to represent thrust is as follows.

             F = \frac{dP}{dt}

                = \frac{2p}{dt}

or,           p = \frac{E}{c}

         \frac{p}{dt} = \frac{W}{c}

                  F = \frac{2IA}{c}

                     = \frac{2 (1000 W/m^{2})(5.5 \times 10^{3} m)^{2}}{3 \times 10^{8} m/s}

                     = 201.67 N

Thus, we can conclude that the thrust is 201.67 N.
