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.

A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff above the ground level with initial velocity of at an angle with the horizontal. (
Xelga [282]

Answer:

t = √2y/g

Explanation:

This is a projectile launch exercise

a) The vertical velocity in the initial instants (v_{oy} = 0) zero, so let's use the equation

     y =v_{oy} t -1/2 g t²

     y= - ½ g t²

     t = √2y/g

b) Let's use this time and the horizontal displacement equation, because the constant horizontal velocity

     x = vox t

     x = v₀ₓ √2y/g

c) Speeds before touching the ground

     vₓ = vox = constant

     v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

     v_{y} = 0 - g √2y/g

    v_{y}  = - √2gy

    tan θ = Vy / vx

    θ = tan⁻¹ (vy / vx)

    θ = tan⁻¹ (√2gy / vox)

d) The projectile is higher than the cliff because it is a horizontal launch

Intro to Springs and Hooke’s law
wel
A spring is an object that can be deformed by a force and then return to its original shape after the force is removed.
Springs come in a huge variety of different forms, but the simple metal coil spring is probably the most familiar. Springs are an essential part of almost all moderately complex mechanical devices; from ball-point pens to racing car engines.
There is nothing particularly magical about the shape of a coil spring that makes it behave like a spring. The 'springiness', or more correctly, the elasticity is a fundamental property of the wire that the spring is made from. A long straight metal wire also has the ability to ‘spring back’ following a stretching or twisting action. Winding the wire into a spring just allows us to exploit the properties of a long piece of wire in a small space. This is much more convenient for building mechanical devices.

A 2.00 kg box slides on a rough, horizontal surface, hits a spring with a speed of 1.90 m/s and compresses it a distance of 10.0
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of box m=2\ kg

speed of box v=1.9\ m/s

distance moved by the box x=10\ cm

coefficient of kinetic friction \mu _k=0.66

Friction  force f_r=\mu_kN

f_r=0.66\times mg

f_r=0.66\times 2\times 9.8=12.936 \N

Kinetic Energy of box will be utilize to overcome friction and rest is stored in spring in the form of elastic potential energy

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=f_r\cdot x+\frac{1}{2}kx^2

\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 1.9^2=12.936\times 0.1+\frac{1}{2}\times k\times (0.1)^2

3.61-1.2936=0.005\times k

k=463.28\ N/m
