Example: What power of spectacle lens is needed to correct the vision of a nearsighted person
Aleksandr [31]
<h3>Concave or diverging lens is needed correct the vision of a nearsighted person  whose far point is 30.0 cm</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Nearsighted person will not be able to see the distant objects clearly

Now, we want the near sighted person to see the distant objects clearly

<em><u>The lens equation is given as:</u></em>

P = \frac{1}{d_o} + \frac{1}{d_i}

For distant vision, d_0 = \infty

d_i = image\ distance\\\\d_0 = lens\ to\ retina\ distance

The image of 30 cm from eye will be 28.5 cm to left of spectacle lens

Therefore,

d_i = -28.5\ cm = 0.285\ meter

From lens equation,

P = \frac{1}{ \infty } + \frac{1}{-0.285\ meter}\\\\P = 0 - 3.51 \\\\P = -3.51\ diopter

The negative power -3.51 D denotes that a concave or diverging lens is needed

2. A 2.5 meter-long wave travels at 1 m/s towards a fixed boundary. After 2 seconds, how does the wave appear?
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Since incident wave and its reflected part in opposite phase superimpose on each other

So correct answer will be

Option B

Explanation:

Here we know that the wave reflection is done by rigid boundary

So when wave is reflected by the boundary then its phase is reversed by 180 degree

so the reflected wave is in reverse phase from the boundary

so we can superimpose the reflected part with incident wave to dine the resultant wave

So the phenomenon is given as follow

How do you know the earth is rotating on its axis
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Read below!

Explanation:

You can watch the sun wheel across the sky during the day, and the stars at night. Focus a telescope on any star besides the north star--especially southern stars--and you can watch them drift across your field of view.  

An alternative explanation is that all the stars are painted on (or holes in) some canopy that rotates around the earth. This explanation does not account for the motion of the "wanderers," or planets, as the Greeks called them, or for the path of the moon among the stars.  

As we know the stars are massive bodies of significant and varying distance to the earth, the notion they all swing around us in unison seems highly implausible

3. The velocity of sound is 332 m/s. Answer the following questions:
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

20 Hz, 20000 Hz

0.0166 m, 16.6 m

Explanation:

The minimum frequency that a human ear can hear is 20 Hz

The maximum frequency that a human ear can hear is 20000 Hz.

v = Velocity of sound = 332 m/s

Wavelength is given by

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{332}{20}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=16.6\ \text{m}

The longest wavelength that can be heard by the human ear is 16.6 m

\lambda=\dfrac{332}{20000}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=0.0166\ \text{m}

The shortest wavelength that can be heard by the human ear is 0.0166 m.
