Answer:

0.22mm

Explanation:

A far sighted person is a person suffering from long sightedness i.e such individual can only see far distant object clearly but not near distant object. The defect is corrected using convex lens.

Since convex lens is used, the focal (f) length of the lens is positive and the image distance (v) is also positive.

Using the lens formula,

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

Where u is the object distance = 0.35mm

v = 0.6mm

1/f = 1/0.35+1/0.6

1/f = 2.86 + 1.67

1/f = 4.53

f = 1/4.53

f = 0.22mm

The focal length of the contact lenses will be 0.22mm

An initially stationary object experiences an acceleration of 6 m/s2 for a time of 15 s. How far will it travel during that time
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The object will travel 675 m during that time.

Explanation:

A body moves with constant acceleration motion or uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion (u.a.r.m) when the path is a straight line, but the velocity is not necessarily constant because there is an acceleration.

In other words, a body performs a u.a.r.m when its path is a straight line and its acceleration is constant. This implies that the speed increases or decreases uniformly.

In this case, the position is calculated using the expression:

x = xo + vo*t + ½*a*t²

where:

  • x0 is the initial position.
  • v0 is the initial velocity.
  • a is the acceleration.
  • t is the time interval in which the motion is studied.

In this case:

  • x0= 0
  • v0= 0  because the object is initially stationary
  • a= 6 \frac{m}{s^{2} }
  • t= 15 s

Replacing:

x= 0 + 0*15 s + ½*6 \frac{m}{s^{2} }*(15s)²

Solving:

x=½*6 \frac{m}{s^{2} }*(15s)²

x=½*6 \frac{m}{s^{2} }*225 s²

x= 675 m

<u><em> The object will travel 675 m during that time.</em></u>

Fl-19 in florida, if your pwc is equipped with an engine cut-off lanyard, what must you do with it?
melamori03 [73]

Answer: Attach it to clothing, personal flotation device or the person's person.

Explanation:

This particular Question or problem has to do with the rules and regulations or laws governing the use of Personal Watercraft(PWC) in the state of Florida in the United States of America. Hence, one of the rules that is applicable to the use of boats and waterways or the use of personal watercraft in Florida is that in florida, if ones pwc is equipped with an engine cut-off lanyard the person operating it must ATTACH IT TO THE CLOTHING, PERSONAL FLOATATION DEVICE IR THE OPERATORS' PERSON.

Another rule band the use of flammable personal flotation device with Personal Watercraft(PWC) in the state of Florida. All this rules and guildlines are made to limit or minimize hazards.

Describe the Compton Effect​
Nana76 [90]
<h3>Compton scattering, discovered by Arthur Holly Compton, is the scattering of a photon after an interaction with a charged particle, usually an electron. If it results in a decrease in energy of the photon, it is called the Compton effect. Part of the energy of the photon is transferred to the recoiling electron.</h3>

The mass of a planet is 3.7 x 1024 kg. If the planet has a radius of 9.2 x 106 m what is the acceleration of gravity for a perso
nalin [4]

Explanation:

It s given that,

Mass of a planet, M=3.7\times 10^{24}\ kg

Radius of a planet, R=9.2\times 10^{6}\ m

(1) We need to find the acceleration due to gravity for a person on the surface of the planet. Its formula is given by :

g=\dfrac{GM}{R^2}

g=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\ Nm^2/kg^2\times 3.7\times 10^{24}\ kg}{(9.2\times 10^{6}\ m)^2}

g=2.91\ m/s^2

(2) The escape velocity is given by :

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{R}}

v=\sqrt{{\dfrac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\ Nm^2/kg^2\times 3.7\times 10^{24}\ kg}{9.2\times 10^{6}\ m}}

v = 7324.61 m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.
