What causes short sightedness ?how is it corrected

Physics
1 answer:
7nadin3 [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Short sight occurs when the eyeball is too long or the lens is too thick, or both. As a result, light rays from distant objects are focused in front of the retina (because the light rays are highly converged). The image formed on the retina is therefore out of focus.

Short sight can be corrected by wearing glasses with concave lenses. Light rays from distant objects are diverged by concave lenses before entering the eyes, so that light can be focused on the retina to form a sharp image.

A boy in a wheelchair (total mass 54.5 kg) has speed 1.40 m/s at the crest of a slope 2.10 m high and 12.4 m long. At the bottom
babymother [125]

Answer:

630.75 j

Explanation:

from the question we have the following

total mass (m) = 54.5 kg

initial speed (Vi) = 1.4 m/s

final speed (Vf) = 6.6 m/s

frictional force (FF) = 41 N

height of slope (h) = 2.1 m

length of slope (d) = 12.4 m

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^2

work done (wd) = ?

  • we can calculate the work done by the boy in pushing the chair using the law of law of conservation of energy

wd + mgh = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x  d)

wd = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x  d) - (mgh)

where wd = work done

m = mass

h = height

g = acceleration due to gravity

FF = frictional force

d = distance

Vf and Vi = final and initial velocity

wd =  (0.5 x 54.5 x 6.9^2) - (0.5 x 54.5 x 1.4^2) + (41 x 12.4) - (54.5 X 9.8 X 2.1)            

wd = 630.75 j

Urgent! Based on the diagram below, what color will each pigmented paper appear to be to an observer?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Example A will appear green, while Example B will appear greenish-blue.

Explanation:

The color of an object depend on which part of the visible light it reflects towards the observer. Visible light is made up of seven colors: Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, and Red (VIBGYOR). If all the colors will be reflected object will appear white. If all the colors are absorbed the object appears black. In example A, only green color is being reflected so it will appear <em>Green</em>.

In example B, green and blue are being reflected so the object will appear a mix of green and blue. This color is cyan (greenish blue).

One litre of crude oil weighs 9.6N. Calculate its specific weight, density and specific gravity.​
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{9600 \frac{N}{m^3}, 978.59 \frac{kg}{m^3}, and \ 0.978}"

Explanation:

Given:

\to v=1\ liter= 10^{-3} \ m^3\\\\\to  w= 9.6 \ N\\

calculation:

Specific \ weight =\frac{w}{v}=\frac{9.6}{10^{-3}}=9600 \frac{N}{m^3} \\\\w=mg\\\\m= \frac{w}{g}=\frac{9.6}{9.81}=0.9785\ kg\\\\\rho\ (density)=\frac{m}{v}=\frac{0.9785}{10^{-3}}=978.59 \frac{kg}{m^3}\\\\specific \ gravity = \frac{\prho \ obj}{\rho w}=\frac{978.54}{1000}=0.978
