Myopia is a condition of the eye where the crystalline lens focuses the light rays to a position between the lens and the retina

. To correct for this condition, a thin lens is placed in front of the eye that will help to focus light on the retina. The type of lens required is__________.
A) cylindrical.
B) Converging
C) Diverging
D) Spherical.

Answer:

C) Diverging

Explanation:

In case of eye defect-myopia, the image does not form on retina and person is not able to see far away objects. It is also known as near-sightedness. So, a concave lens that is a diverging lens is used to correct it. A concave lens is thicker at the edges and thinner at the center. With the help of diverging lens, the image is brought back on to the retina.

Thus, option C is correct.

Answer:

option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

In case of myopia, the image of an object is formed before the retina. It means the rays of light are converge before the retina so the rays of light should be diverge to form the image at retina. So, to cure the myopia, we use the diverging lens of suitable focal length.

Option (c)

A particle undergoes two displacements. The first has a
Novay_Z [31]
First you need to draw the picture of the problem to better understand it. Like the one bellow. 

In this task you have 2 sides of triangle and we can calculate angle between them. Angle between them is 120 - 35 = 85 degrees.

Once you have those 3 variables you can calculate third side of triangle using cosine law.
a - second displacement
b - first displacement
c- resultant displacement.

a^{2} =  b^{2}+ c^{2}-2*b*c*cos85
now we just need to calculate this.
a^{2} = 38439.458
a = 196

now, we use cosine law again to find the angle between second and first displacement.
\alpha = 45.36 degrees

The angle marked with "?" in the graph is our direction angle. We will call it \beta

\beta =90-30-45.36 = 14.64

Second displacement has magnitude of 196 and a direction of -14.64 with positive x axis

object of mass m=2.6 kg is dropped from rest at a height of h above a massless spring with spring constant k=494.3 N/m that is i
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

3.56 m

Explanation:

As the object falls from height h, and then compresses the spring a distance of 0.66m, its initial potential energy is converted into elastics energy of the spring.  

Let g = 9.81m/s2. Knowing that the total change in potential height is h + d, we have the following equation

E_p = E_s

mg(h + d) = kd^2/2

2.6*9.81(h + 0.66) = 494.3*0.66^2/2

h + 0.66 = 4.22

h = 4.22 - 0.66 = 3.56 m
