Answer:

Final velocity v = 8.944 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given distance S = 40 meters

Time t = 10 sec

As it starts from rest so initial velocity u = 0

From second equation of motion $s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$40=0\times 10+\frac{1}{2}a10^2$

$a=0.8944m/sec^2$

Now from first equation of motion $v=u+at$ , here v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time

So $v=u+at=0+0.8944\times 10=8.944m/sec$

Both the lens and the cornea of the eye have a primary function of

Answer: B. bending light

Explanation:

The phenomenom of vision in human eye is thanks to refraction (when light changes its direction as it passes through one medium to another), and this is what the cornea and the lens do.

When the ray of light encounters the eye, the first thing it finds is the cornea, which bends this ray and begins to form an image, then light passes through the pupil, which is in charge of regulating the amount of light that enters in the eye.

After light travels through pupil it passes through the lens, where the rays of light change the direction again in order to focus the formed image on the retina.

At this point it is important to note the formed image is downward, then the retina transforms light into electrical impulses that are sent to the brain through the optic nerve and finally the brain interprets these messages, and forms a right upward image.

In the image attached these parts can be seen.

An electric vehicle starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.4 m/s2 in a straight line until it reaches a speed of 27 m/s

DENIUS [597]

A) use v=u+at for both

First section, v=27, u=0, a=2.4. You should get 11seconds.
Second section, v=0, u=27, a=-1.3. You should get 21seconds.
This means that the total time is 22seconds.

b) You can either use s=ut+0.5at^2 or v^2=u^2+2as. Personally, I would use the second one as you are not relying on your previous answer.

First section, v=27, u=0, a=2.4. You should get 152m.
Second section, v=0, u=27, a=-1.3. You should get 280m.
This makes your overall displacement 432m.

Two technicians are explaining the information on a repair order. Technician A says that the cause written on the repair order i

bezimeni [28]

Technician A and B are correct . Because according to technician A, the cause written on the repair order is a diagnosis. Here, by diagnosis, he means that the problem is identified after examining the device and hence the judgement is made.
And according to B, you have to write the cause of the problems in the device that have been identified and the concern measures, which is also kind of diagnosis.

So, option D is correct.
