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.

How does the entropy of steam compare to the entropy of ice?
Dmitriy789 [7]

The answer is; The entropy of steam is larger than because it is more disordered than ice

Entropy is synonymous to the degree of disorder or randomness of molecules in a system. The molecules of steam are far apart from each other and move randomly in the system colliding with each other. Those of ice has less kinetic energy, vibrate more or less in a fixed position in the structiure, and are arranged in a orderd fashion
