Let’s determine what lens is needed to correct the vision of a myopic eye. Assume that the far point of the myopic eye is 50 cmc

m in front of the eye. What lens should be used to focus sharply on an object at infinity? (Assume that the distance from the lens to the eye is negligible.)

Answer:

Explanation:

Person suffering from myopia is unable to see objects beyond 50 cm  because far point of his vision is 50 cm . He requires a concave lens

( diverging lens ) to correct his vision .

After using the lens ,

ray of light coming from far off place will appear to be coming from 50 cm after refraction through lens so it will be focused on retina .

object distance u = ∝

image distance v =  - 50 cm

focal length f = ?

1 / v - 1 / u = 1 /f

- 1 / 50 - 1 / ∝ = 1 / f

- 1 / 50  = 1 / f

f = - 50 cm

focal length is negative so len is concave.

He requires  concave lens of focal length 50 cm .

Answer:

Từ ánh sáng từ mặt trời đến nhiệt liên tục phát ra từ cơ thể chúng ta, có nhiều dạng bức xạ khác nhau. Tuy nhiên, khi nói đến bức xạ và nguy cơ ung thư, hầu hết mọi người đều nghĩ đến tia X và tia gamma.

Các nguồn tự nhiên của tia X và tia gamma bao gồm khí radon, chất phóng xạ trong lòng đất và các tia vũ trụ tấn công hành tinh từ không gian. Tuy nhiên, loại bức xạ này cũng có thể do con người gây ra. Tia X và tia gamma được sản xuất trong các nhà máy điện hạt nhân để sử dụng trong các xét nghiệm hình ảnh y tế, điều trị ung thư, chiếu xạ thực phẩm và máy quét an ninh sân bay với liều lượng nhỏ.

English:

From light from the sun to the heat that is continuously emitted from our bodies, there are many different forms of radiation. However, when it comes to radiation and cancer risk, most people think of X-rays and gamma rays.

Natural sources of X-rays and gamma rays include radon gas, underground radioactive material, and cosmic rays that strike the planet from space. However, this type of radiation can also be caused by humans. X-rays and gamma rays are produced in nuclear power plants for use in medical imaging tests, cancer treatments, food irradiation and airport security scanners in small doses.

Name three ways that scientists can ensure their results are reliable.
liberstina [14]

Observations and Data are FACTS. Scientists use observations and data to draw a conclusion. Observations lead to the recording of data. Scientists ask questions about their observations and then collect data to answer their questions, then they have their evidence. Opinions are not facts, they are simply beliefs or value judgements. Then the scientist should repeat the experiment the results from different scientists should be similar- if the results are not similar and consistent then the experiment must be done again. <span>

Two straight wires are in parallel and carry electrical currents in opposite directions with the same magnitude of LaTeX: 2.02.0
koban [17]

Answer:

2.4\times 10^{-5} N

Explanation:

We are given that

I_1=I_2=2.0 A

Distance between the wires,d=5.0 mm=5\times 10^{-3} m

1mm=10^{-3} m

Length of other wire,l=0.3 m

Length of one wire is infinite.

We have to find the magnitude of force between the two wires.

We know that magnetic force

F=\frac{2\mu_0 I_1I_2 l}{4\pi d}

Where \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}=10^{-7}

F=\frac{2\times 10^{-7}\times 2\times 2\times 0.3}{5\times 10^{-3}}

F=2.4\times 10^{-5} N

When the wires carrying equal current in opposite direction then the force between two wires repel to each other.

What fraction of the space within the atom is occupied by the nucleus?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Approximately 6.8 x 10⁻¹⁵

Explanation:

To be able to get this fraction, there are some things we need to know.

1. The radius of nucleus = 1.0 x 10⁻¹³ cm

2. The radius of hydrogen atom = 52.9 pm

3. Volume of sphere = V1/V2 = (R1/R2)^3

4. 1 picometer (pm) = 10^-10 cm

The velocity of an object is the _____ of the object
katovenus [111]
