Answer:

The focal length of the appropriate corrective lens is 35.71 cm.

The power of the appropriate corrective lens is 0.028 D.

Explanation:

The expression for the lens formula is as follows;

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}

Here, f is the focal length, u is the object distance and v is the image distance.

It is given in the problem that the given lens is corrective lens. Then, it will form an upright and virtual image at the near point of person's eye. The near point of a person's eye is 71.4 cm. To see objects clearly at a distance of 24.0 cm, the corrective lens is used.

Put v= -71.4 cm and u= 24.0 cm in the above expression.

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{24}+\frac{1}{-71.4}

\frac{1}{f}=0.028

f= 35.71 cm

Therefore, the focal length of the corrective lens is 35.71 cm.

The expression for the power of the lens is as follows;

p=\frac{1}{f}

Here, p is the power of the lens.

Put f= 35.71 cm.

p=\frac{1}{35.71}

p=0.028 D

Therefore, the power of the corrective lens is 0.028 D.

A skier moving at 4.75 m/s encounters a long, rough, horizontal patch of snow having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.220
disa [49]
First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force, \mu m g. For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:
ma=-\mu m g
Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:
a=-(0.220)(9.81 m/s^2)=-2.16 m/s^2

Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:
2aS=v_f^2-v_i^2
where v_f=0 is the final speed of the skier and v_i=4.75 m/s is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
S=- \frac{v_i^2}{2a}=- \frac{(4.75 m/s)^2}{2(-2.16 m/s^2)}=5.23 m

Below are the choices that can be found elsewhere:

A. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · tan(30°) 
<span>B. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · sin(30°) </span>
<span>C. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · cos(30°) </span>
<span>D. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · arctan(30°) </span>
<span>E. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · arccos(30°)
</span>
<span>Force is proportional to the angle made by the velocity with respect to the magnetic field. It is maximum when velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field and minimum when the velocity is parallel to the magnetic field. It is proportional to sin of the angle. In this problem it will be proportional to sin(30)</span>
