Answer:

so that it can diverge the light to make sure that it focused on the ratina and the image is formed.

Explanation:

nearsightedness is when the light is focused in front of the ratina and for an image to be formed in the eye, the light must be focused on the ratina so to correct that we use the diverging lenses so that it will diverge the light and allow the cornea and the lens to converge it so it is focused on the ratina.

An object with an initial velocity of 10 m/s accelerates at a rate of 3.5 m/s2 for 8 seconds. How far will it have traveled duri
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Distance, d = 192 meters

Explanation:

We have,

Initial velocity of an object is 10 m/s

Acceleration of the object is 3.5 m/s²

Time, t = 8 s

We need to find the distance travelled by the object during that time. Second equation of motion gives the distance travelled by the object. It is given by :

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

d=10\times 8+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3.5\times 8^2\\\\d=192\ m

So, the distance travelled by the object is 192 meters.

A 3,000-N force gives an object an acceleration of 15 m/s^2. The mass of the object is
Bingel [31]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Hello, </em>

<h3><u>QUESTION)</u></h3>

According to the second Newton's Law,

<em>✔ We have : F = m x a ⇔ m = F/a </em>

  • m = 3000/15
  • m = 200 kg

The mass of the object is therefore 200 kg.

A cylinder which is in a horizontal position contains an unknown noble gas at 4.63 × 104 Pa and is sealed with a massless piston
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The change in internal energy of the system is -17746.78 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure P=4.63\times10^{4}\ Pa

Remove heat \Delta U= -1.95\times10^{4}\ J

Radius = 0.272 m

Distance d = 0.163 m

We need to calculate the internal energy

Using thermodynamics first equation

dU=Q-W...(I)

Where, dU = internal energy

Q = heat

W = work done

Put the value of W in equation (I)

dU=Q-PdV

Where, W = PdV

Put the value in the equation

dU=-1.95\times10^{4}-(4.63\times10^{4}\times3.14\times(0.272)^2\times(-0.163))

dU=-17746.78\ J

Hence, The change in internal energy of the system is -17746.78 J
