Answer:

Explanation: the explanation goes as follow;

  • If an equation is dimensionally correct, does this mean that the equation must be true?

answer: A dimensionally correct equation deosn't make the equation true. It is always possible to construct an arbitrary meaningless equation that satisfies the dimensional analysis. we can observe this in different physical quantities that have the same dimensional formula, by inserting a wrong physical parameter into an equation, it may turn out as dimensionally correct, but it wont have any physical meaning.

  • If an equation is not dimensionally correct, does this mean that the equation cannot be true?

answer:  A dimensionally incorrect equation necessarily implies that the equation is wrong.

  • How is dimension analysis used as a check on the plausibiity of derived equations and computations?

answer: dimensional analysis is a very strong tool that is used to check the trustworthiness of  a derived equation. It helps to compare the dimensions of the output variable from an equation against the true dimensions of the output variable. If both of them are not same, the equation/computation/derivation is incorrect.

  • How does this knowledge help you to understand and characterize particular phenomenon?

answer:  the knowledge of dimensional analysis helps in understanding which variables are necessary for defining a process.

Martin has severe myopia, with a far point on only 17 cm. He wants to get glasses that he'll wear while using his computer whose
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

Far point = 17 cm . That means he can not see beyond this distance .

He wants to see at an object at 65 cm away . That means object placed at 65 has image at 17 cm by concave lens . Using lens formula

1 / v - 1 / u = 1 / f

1 / - 17 - 1 / - 65 = 1 / f

= 1 / 65 - 1 / 17

= -  .0434 = 1 / f

power = - 100 / f

= - 100 x .0434

= - 4.34 D .

A ball is dropped from the top of the building.it initially moves at 4.0 m/s after 0.5 seconds it moves at 3.8m/s what force is
Ivahew [28]

The correct answer is

Air resistance

In fact, when a ball is in free fall, there are two forces acting on it:

- its weight (force of gravity), acting downward

- the air resistance, acting upward

The effect of the weight is to accelerate the ball, because its direction is the same as the direction of motion of the ball, while the effect of the air resistance is to slow down the ball, because its direction is opposite to that of the motion.
