Answer:

(a). The eye's near point is 68.98 cm from the eye.

(b). The eye's far point is 33.33 cm from the eye.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power = 2.55 D

Object distance = 25 cm for near point

Object distance = ∞ for far point

Suppose where is the far point of an eye for which a contact lens with a power of -3.00 D  is prescribed for distant vision?

(a) We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of power

f =\dfrac{1}{P}

Put the value into the formula

f=\dfrac{100}{2.55}

f=39.21\ cm

We need to calculate the image distance

Using formula of lens

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{39.21}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{-25}

\dfrac{1}{39.21}-\dfrac{1}{25}=\dfrac{1}{v}

\dfrac{1}{v}=-\dfrac{1421}{98025}

v=-68.98\ cm

The eye's near point is 68.98 cm from the eye.

(b). We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of power

f =\dfrac{1}{P}

Put the value into the formula

f=-\dfrac{100}{3.00}

f=-33.33\ cm

We need to calculate the image distance

Using formula of lens

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{-33.33}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{\infty}

-\dfrac{1}{33.33}+\dfrac{1}{\infty}=\dfrac{1}{v}

\dfrac{1}{v}=-\dfrac{1}{33.33}

v=-33.33\ cm

The eye's far point is 33.33 cm from the eye.

Hence, (a). The eye's near point is 68.98 cm from the eye.

(b). The eye's far point is 33.33 cm from the eye.

Salt is now added to the water in the bucket, increasing the density of the liquid. what happens to the tension in the string ?
AlexFokin [52]

The question involves a ping-pong ball that is held submerged in a bucket by a string attached to the bottom of the bucket.

The answer is the tension of the string will increase. This is because making the water salty increases its density, and consequently, increases its buoyancy. This is why sea water is more buoyant than fresh water. Therefore the ping pong is pushed more upwards by the water when salt is added than initially. This gives the string more tension.

9. Consider the elbow to be flexed at 90 degrees with the forearm parallel to the ground and the upper arm perpendicular to the
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Moment about SHOULDER  ∑ τ = 3.17 N / m,

Moment respect to ELBOW   Στ= 2.80 N m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Newton's second law relationships for rotational motion

         ∑ τ = I α

   

The moment is requested on the elbow and shoulder at the initial instant, just when the movement begins.

They indicate the angular acceleration, for which we must look for the moments of inertia of the elements involved

The mass of the forearm with the included weight is approximately 2.3 kg, with a length of about 50cm

Moment about SHOULDER

          ∑ τ = I α

           I = I_forearm + I_sphere

the forearm can be approximated as a fixed bar at one end

            I_forearm = ⅓ m L²

the moment of inertia of the mass in the hand, let's approach as punctual

            I_mass = m L²

we substitute

           ∑ τ = (⅓ m L² + M L²) α

let's calculate

          ∑ τ = (⅓ 2.3 0.5² + 0.5 0.5²) 10

           ∑ τ = 3.17 N / m

Moment with respect to ELBOW

In this case, the arm exerts an upward force (muscle) that is about 3 cm from the elbow

         Στ = I α

         I = I_ forearm + I_mass

         I = ⅓ m (L-0.03)² + M (L-0.03)²

         

let's calculate

        i = ⅓ 2.3 0.47² + 0.5 0.47²

        I = 0.2798 Kg m²

        Στ = 0.2798 10

        Στ= 2.80 N m

Except for the nodes on a standing wave, what is the frequency f of the points executing simple harmonic motion?
Katen [24]

Take into account that in a standing wave, the frequency f of the points executing simple harmonic motion, is simply a multiple of the fundamental harmonic fo, that is:

f = n·fo

where n is an integer and fo is the first harmonic or fundamental.

fo is given by the length L of a string, in the following way:

fo = v/λ = v/(L/2) = 2v/L

becasue in the fundamental harmonic, the length of th string coincides with one hal of the wavelength of the wave.
