Answer:

d. 10.3 m

Explanation:

For a nearsighted person,

1/f = (1/v)+(1/u).................... Equation 1

f = focal, v = image distance, u = object distance.

f = vu/(v+u)................. Equation 2

Given: v = -10 m, u = 300 m

Substitute into equation 2

f = (-10×300)/(-10+300)

f = -3000/290

f = -10.34 m

therefore a concave lens of focal length 10.34 m is  required.

The right option is d. 10.3 m

Answer:

d.-10.3m

Explanation:

Note for short sightedness the focal length is negative

Let do be object distance=10m

And di= image distance=-300m

Using lens formula

F=do*di/do-di= 10*300/10-300=-10.3m

6. Two light bulbs are designed for use at 120 V and are rated at 75 W and 150 W. Which light bulb has the greater filament resi
Nonamiya [84]

\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

  • P is power
  • R is resistance

\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}

Hence

\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R\propto V

\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R\propto \dfrac{1}{P}

  • Therefore if power is low then resistance will be high.

The first bulb has less power hence it has greater filament resistance.
