Flasher units are being discussed. Technician A says that only a DOT-approved flasher unit should be used for turn signals. Tech
zmey [24]

Answer: C

Both Technicians A and B

Explanation:

Only a DOT-approved flasher unit should be used for turn signals. And a parallel (variable-load) flasher will function for turn signal usage, although it will not warn the driver if a bulb burns out.

Where is the near point of an normal eye when accidentally wear a contact lens with a power of +2.0 diopters?
Lerok [7]

Answer:

The near point of an eye with power of +2 dopters, u' = - 50 cm

Given:

Power of a contact lens, P = +2.0 diopters

Solution:

To calculate the near point, we need to find the focal length of the lens which is given by:

Power, P = \frac{1}{f}

where

f = focal length

Thus

f = \frac{1}{P}

f = \frac{1}{2} = + 0.5 m

The near point of the eye is the point distant such that the image formed at this point can be seen clearly by the eye.

Now, by using lens maker formula:

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{u'}

where

u = object distance = 25 cm = 0.25 m = near point of a normal eye

u' = image distance

Now,

\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}

\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{0.5} - \frac{1}{0.25}

\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}

Solving the above eqn, we get:

u' = - 0.5 m = - 50 cm

assume the suns total energy output is 4.0 * 10^26 watts, and 1 watt is 1 joule/second. assume 4.3 * 10^-12 J is released from e
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

9.3\cdot 10^{37}

Explanation:

Power is defined as the energy produced (E) per unit of time (t):

P= \frac{E}{t}

This means that the energy produced in the Sun each second (1 s), given the power P=4.0\cdot 10^{26}W, is

E=Pt=(4.0\cdot 10^{26}W)(1s )=4.0\cdot 10^{26} J

Each p-p chain reaction produces an amount of energy of

E_1 = 4.3\cdot 10^{-12} J

in order to get the total number of p-p chain reactions per second, we need to divide the total energy produced per second by the energy produced by each reaction:

n=\frac{E}{E_1}=\frac{4.0\cdot 10^{26} J}{4.3\cdot 10^{-12} J}=9.3\cdot 10^{37}
