A woman wears bifocal glasses with the lenses 2.0 cm in front of her eyes. The upper half of each lens has power-0.500 diopter a

nd corrects her far vision so that she can focus clearly on distant when looking through that half. The lower half of each lens has power +2.00 diopters and corrects her near vision when she looks through that half What are the far point and near point of her eyes?

Answer:

q = -2 m  and  q = -0.5 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the equation of the optical constructor

        1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p and q are the distance to the object and the image, respectively

Let's start with the far vision point, in this case the power of the lens is

        P = -0.5D

power is defined as the inverse of the focal length in meter

      f = 1 / D

      f = -1 / 0.5

      f = - 2m

the object for the far vision point is at infinity p = infinity

     1 / f = 1 / p + i / q

      1 / q = 1 / f - 1 / p

      1 / q = -1/2 - 1 / ∞

       q = -2 m

The sign indicates that the image is on the same side as the object

Now let's lock the near view point

D = +2.00 D

f = 1 / D

f = 0.5m

the near mink point is p = 25 cm = 0.25 m

        1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

        1 / q = 1 / f - 1 / p

        1 / q = 1 / 0.5 - 1 / 0.25

        1 / q = -2

        q = -0.5 m

the sign indicates that the image is on the same side as the object in front of the lens

A positively charged particle moves through an electric field. As part of a complicated trajectory, the particle passes through
kow [346]

Answer:

(B) The speed is larger at A than at B.

Explanation:

Point B, the final point of the trajectory, has higher electric potential than point A, the initial point of the trajectory, so the electric potential energy of the charged particle increases, which means that its kinetic energy must be decreasing, thus the speed at B must be lower than the speed at A.

. An object whose mass is 375 lb falls freely under the influence of gravity from an initial elevation of 253 ft above the surfa
lozanna [386]

Answer:

(a) Vf = 128 ft/s

(b) K.E = 122.8 Btu

Explanation:

(a)

In order to find the velocity of the object just before striking the surface of earth or the final velocity, we use 3rd equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = 32.2 ft/s²

h = height = 253 ft

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 10 ft/s

Therefore,

(2)(32.2 ft/s²)(253 ft) = Vf² - (10 ft/s)²

16293.2 ft²/s² + 100 ft²/s² = Vf²

Vf = √(16393.2 ft²/s²)

<u>Vf = 128 ft/s</u>

<u></u>

(b)

The kinetic energy of the object before it hits the surface of earth is given by:

K.E = (0.5)(m)(Vf)²

where,

m = mass of object = 375 lb

K.E = Kinetic energy of object before it strikes the surface of earth = ?

Therefore,

K.E = (0.5)(375 lb)(128 ft/s)²

K.E = 3073725 lb.ft²/s²

Now, converting this to Btu:

K.E = (3073725 lb.ft²/s²)(1 Btu/25037 lb.ft²/s²)

<u>K.E = 122.8 Btu</u>

Describe and explain how the movement and arrangement of the particles in a block of ice change as the ice melts to form liquid
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Ice is water in solid phase, in this phase, the particles are very close together and relatively in fixed positions.

As the temperature starts to increase (thermal energy), also does the kinetic energy of the particles (so we have a change from thermal energy to kinetic energy), so they start to move "more", and the position of the particles starts to be less "fixed". There is a point where the particles have enough energy, and this point is where the phase of the water changes from solid to liquid phase (the fusion point). After this point the water can not hold his shape, and takes the shape of the container where it is.
