What causes short sightedness ?how is it corrected

Physics
1 answer:

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 bus slams on its breaks and goes from 30 km/hr to 15km/hr in 4 seconds. What is its acceleration?
PolarNik [594]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change).

Change in speed = (15 - 30) = -15 km/hr
Time for the change = 4 sec

Acceleration = (-15 km/hr) / (4 sec) = -3.75 km/hr per second .

Is that a lot ?  Not much ?

Let's convert it to a unit that we can think about:

     (-15 km/hr) x (1,000 m/km) x (1 hr / 3,600 sec) =

           (-15 x 1,000) / (3,600)  =  -(4 and 1/6) m/sec .

So the acceleration of the bus is    -(4 and 1/6) m/sec² .

The negative sign means that it slowed down.

(4 and 1/6) m/sec²  is about  42%  of the acceleration of gravity ...
the acceleration the bus would have if it drove off of a cliff.

When the car or the bus you're riding in slows down at that rate,
you feel  42%  of your weight pulling you forward against your
seat belt.  That's quite a drastic acceleration !

An AC generator consists of 6 turns of wire. Each turn has an area of 0.040 m2. The loop rotates in a uniform field (B = 0.20 T)
Alja [10]

Answer:

The maximum induced emf is 15.08 V

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of the generator, N = 6 turns

area of the loop, A = 0.04 m

magnetic field of the loop, B = 0.2 T

frequency of loop, f = 50 Hz

The  maximum induced emf is given by;

E = NBAω

Where;

ω is the angular speed = 2πf

E = NBA(2πf)

E = 6 x 0.2 x 0.04 x (2 x 3.142 x 50)

E = 15.08 V

Therefore, the maximum induced emf is 15.08 V

From a cliff 37.6 m high. At the level of the sea, a rock sticks out a horizontal distance of 12.12 m. The acceleration of gravi
Aleks [24]

Answer:

4.3 m/sec

Explanation:

Here height of cliff = y = 37.6 m

Gravitational acceleration = g = 9.8 m/sec2

vi = 0 m/s

Let's find the time which the diver will take if jumps from there!

Using formula

y = vit+1/2gt2

==> 37.6= 0 + 0.5 ×9.8×t^{2}

==>t^{2}= \frac{37.6}{4.9}

==> t = 2.8 sec

In this time the diver has to cover a horizontal distance of 12.12 m

If x = 12.12 m is the horizontal distance to be covered then using

x= Vx × t

==> Vx = x/t

==> Vx= 12.12/2.8 = 4.3 m/s
