A light wave travels through air at a speed of 3.0x108 m/s. Green light has a wavelength of about 5.76x1014Hz. What is the wavel
solong [7]

Answer:

521 nm

Explanation:

Given the values and units we are given, I'm assuming  5.76*10^14 Hz is frequency.

The formula to use here is λ * υ = c, where λ is wavelength, υ is frequency, and c is the speed of light.

λ = \frac{3*10^8\frac{m}{s} }{5.76*10^{14}Hz} = {5.20833*10^{-7} m}\approx{521 *10^{-9}m}={521 nm}

The closest distance a book can be read from a pair of reading eyeglasses (Power = 1.55 dp) is 26.0 cm. What is the near distanc
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The image distance is 20.0 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power = 1.55 dp

Distance between book to eye = 26.0+3.00=29.0 cm

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of focal length

f = \dfrac{1}{P}

Put the value into the formula

f=\dfrac{1}{1.55}

f=0.645\ m

f=64.5\ cm

We need to calculate the image distance

Using lens formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{-u}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{64.5}-\dfrac{1}{-29}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{187}{3741}

v=20.0\ cm

Hence, The image distance is 20.0 cm.

Which of the following is the equation for calculating daily caloric needs? A. BMR calories + Digestion calories B. BMR calories
labwork [276]

Explanation:

To determine your total daily calorie needs, multiply your BMR by the appropriate activity factor, as follows: If you are sedentary (little or no exercise) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.2. If you are lightly active (light exercise/sports 1-3 days/week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.375.
