Answer:

The Mass of a person is calculated to be 28.6kg .

Explanation:

This is based on Kinetic energy and we know, that Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by body by virtue of its motion .

It can be calculated by expression :

K.E=1/2mv²

Velocity of a person = 11.2m/sec

Kinetic energy = 1800J

Mass of person = ?

We know ,

K.E=1/2mv²

so, putting values we have :

1800=1/2 x m x (11.2)²

That is ,

m=1800 x 2 /11.2 x 11.2

or

m=3600/125.44

m = 28.6 kg

Optics of the eye: the closest object that a typical young person with normal vision can focus on clearly is closest to:______.
Natali [406]

The human eye is one of the most valuable sense organ. The closest object that a typical young person with normal vision can focus closest to is 25 cm

The lens in the eye forms the image on the retina. The image formed is real and inverted. The retina is a very delicate membrane containing numerous light sensitive cells.

This light sensitive cells gets activated when light falls on it and generates electric signals. These electric signals are sent to the brain via the optic nerves present in the eye. The brain finally processes these signals and thus we see the object clearly.

The ability of the lens of the eye to adjust its focal length accordingly is called the power of accommodation,

The minimum distance, at which the object can be seen clearly without any strain is called the least distance of distinct vision.

To see an object clearly without any strain is when we place it at about 25 cm from the eye.

• How were historical solar system models different from our current model?
horrorfan [7]
One of the most famous historical model was the geocentric model thought of by plato. This model says that the earth is in the center of the universe and that each of the planets follow complicated paths that go backwards sometimes. This model was used until a new one was accepted. This model is the one we have today called the heliocentric model. It was bought of by Copernicus. Hope that answers your question!

an object starts at rest and accelerates until it is moving at 247 km/h. if it takes 1.7minutes for this change to occur what is
d1i1m1o1n [39]

The average acceleration in 0.67 m/s^2.

The average acceleration is calculated as change in velocity/time

a=(247*5/18)/(1.7*60)

=68.61/102=0.67 m/s^2

Therefor the average acceleration of the object is 0.67 m/s^2

What are the causes of mesosphere?
Rudiy27
Meteors are burning up in the mesosphere. The meteors make it through the exosphere and thermosphere without much trouble because those layers don't have much air. But when they hit the mesosphere, there are enough gases to cause friction and create heat.
