The eyes of many older people have lost the ability to accommodate, and so an older person’s near point may be more than 25 cm f

rom the eye. Does the older person’s eye have a larger or smaller refractive power than a normal eye, when focused on an object at the near point? Explain.

Answer:

Smaller refractive power

Explanation:

The refractive power of an eye is the extent to which it can converge or diverge the light rays.

Near point is the the closest point for an eye such that when an object is placed at that point the image it forms is sharp and clearly visible to the eye.

A the person ages, the ciliary muscles of the eyes weakens and as a result the lens contracts and the formation of the image takes place behind the retina instead of forming at the retina.

Thus the near point also increases and the refractive power becomes smaller.

What is the connection between electrons and protons
TEA [102]

Answer:

Electrons and protons are connected with one another in term of charge and size.

Explanation:

  • The size of electron and proton is always same in any atom but they possess opposite charge.
  • Electron in any atom carries negative charge where as proton carries the positive charge.
  • In any neutral atom the charge between electron and proton is balanced along with the size.
  • The nucleus of any atom bounds only proton and neutron but the electron is present revolving around the nucleus.

What is the magnitude of the electric field at a point midway between a −5.0μC and a +5.8μC charge 8.4cm apart? Assume no other
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Electric Field = E = 36.848 N/C

Explanation:

In accordance with Columb's law

E = k Q1 Q2 / r.r = 8.99 x 10^9 x 5.0 x 10^-6 x 5.8 x 10^-6 / 0.084 x 0.084

= 36948.6961 x 10^-3 = 36.848 N/C

A potential difference of 24 V is applied to a 150-ohm resistor. How much current flows through the resistor?​
Lady_Fox [76]

Given :- A resistor of 150 ohm, hence Resistance (R) = 150 ohm

Potential Difference (v) = 24 V

Current (I) = ?

V = IR

24 = I × 150

I = 24/150

I = 0.16 ampere

hope it helps!
