Answer:

17.4 cm

Explanation:

Power of lens = +1.75 diopters

Focal length of lens

f=\frac{100}{1.75}=\frac{400}{7}

This is a convex lens as focal the diopter given is positive which makes the focal length positive. Image distance will be negative.

v = -25

\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{-25}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{\frac{400}{7}}\\\Rightarrow -\frac{1}{u}=\frac{7}{400}+\frac{1}{25}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{u}=-\frac{7}{400}-\frac{1}{25}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{u}=-0.0575\\\Rightarrow u=-17.4\ cm

∴ The new near point is 17.4 cm

which of the following values can you find by calculating the slope of a graph of velocity versus time position . displacement .
statuscvo [17]
The correct answer is: acceleration.

In fact, the slope of the graph of velocity versus time corresponds to the ratio between the variation of v and the variation of t:
\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}
But this is exactly the definition of acceleration: a= \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}, so acceleration is the correct answer.

What is the fundamental frequency on a 8 m rope that is tied at both ends if the speed of the waves is 16 m/s?
lana [24]

Answer:

1 Hz

Explanation:

For rope fixed on both ends the length corresponds to λ/2  (λ is wavelength)\

 Thus L =  λ/2

=> λ = 16 m

We know that frequency and wavelength are related as

 f x λ = v   where f is frequency and v is speed of the wave

thus f = v/λ

        f = 16/16 =1 Hz

Rainfall in tropical rainforests amounts to about 10 to 14 feet per year.
Savatey [412]

<u>Answer:</u>

The statement is true statement

<u>Explanation:</u>

Tropical rainforests are dry and green throughout the year. Even between the day and the night, temperatures don't change much. in tropical rainforests The average temperature varies from 70 to 85 °F (21 to 30 °C) .

Throughout tropical rainforests, the climate is quite wet, maintaining a humidity level of 77% to 88% year around which is a high value. The annual rainfall is between 80 and 400 inches (200 and 1000 cm), that is 6-33 feets, and it can rain heavily. It can drain as much as 5 cm (2 inches) in an hour.

A batter hits two baseballs with the same force.One hits the ground near third base.The other is a home run out of the park.Wher
andrezito [222]

The formula for work is:

W = F * d  Where W is work, F is Force, and d is distance.

Without doing any math, it can be seen from the equation that work is directly proportional to the force applied and the distance it travels.  The homerun hit both traveled more distance and had a grater force applied to it in order to achieve this distance (assuming both baseballs weighed the same).  Based on this reasoning, it is valid to conclude that the baseball which was a homerun was the hit that accomplished more work.
