Answer:

The change in potential energy is  \Delta  PE =  -  3.8*10^{-16} \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  magnitude of the uniform electric field  is  E =  950 \ N/C

      The  distance traveled by the electron is  x =  2.50 \ m

Generally the force on this electron is  mathematically represented as

     F =  qE

Where F is the force and  q is the charge on the electron which is  a constant value of  q =  1.60*10^{-19} \ C

    Thus  

      F  =  950  * 1.60 **10^{-19}

      F  = 1.52 *10^{-16} \ N

Generally the work energy theorem can be mathematically represented as

          W =  \Delta  KE

Where W is the workdone on the electron by the  Electric field and  \Delta  KE  is the change in kinetic energy

Also  workdone on the electron can also  be represented as

        W =  F* x  *cos(  \theta )

Where  \theta  =  0 ^o considering that the movement of the electron is along the x-axis  

        So

             \Delta  KE  =  F  * x  cos  (0)

substituting values

         \Delta  KE  =  1.52 *10^{-16}  * 2.50   cos  (0)

          \Delta  KE   =  3.8*10^{-16} J

Now From the law of energy conservation

       \Delta PE  =  -  \Delta  KE

Where \Delta  PE is the change  in  potential energy  

Thus  

        \Delta  PE =  -  3.8*10^{-16} \ J

The near point of an eye is 56.0 cm. A corrective lens is to be used to allow this eye to focus clearly on objects at the distan
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

Near point = 56 cm .

near point of healthy person = 25 cm

person suffers from long sightedness

convex lens will be required .

object distance u  = 25 cm

image distance   v = 56 cm

both will be negative as both are in front of the lens.

lens formula

I/v - 1 / u = 1/f

- 1/56 +1/25 = 1/f

- .01785 + .04 = 1/f

1/f  = .02215

f = 45.15 cm .
