Bill is farsighted and has a near point located 121 cm from his eyes. Anne is also farsighted, but her near point is 74.0 cm fro
Arada [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The lens equation is

1 / f = 1 / di + 1 / do

Where

f is focal length

di is the image distance

do is the object distance

Both Annie and Billy use a glass whose near point is 25cm

Then, the object distance is

do = 25 - 2 = 23cm

The have the same object distance.

Let find the vocal length of bills eye

Given that,

Bill near point is 121cm and distance of the glass from the eye is 2cm

Then,

Image distance of bill is

di_B = -(121-2) = -119cm

object distance do = 23cm

Then,

1 / f_B = 1 / di_B + 1 / do

1 / f_B = -1 / 119 + 1 / 23

1 / f_B = -119^-1 + 23^-1

1 / f_B = 0.0351

Then, f_B = 28.51 cm

Also, let find Annie focal length

Given that,

Annie near point is 74 cm and distance of the glass from the eye is 2cm

Then,

Image distance of Annie is

di_A = -(74-2) = -72cm

object distance do = 23cm

Then,

1 / f_A = 1 / di_A + 1 / do

1 / f_A = -1 / 72 + 1 / 23

1 / f_A = -72^-1 + 23^-1

1 / f_A = 0.02959

Then, f_A = 33.8 cm

Distance of object from the lens when Annie uses Billy glass

Then,

1 / f_B = 1 / di_A + 1 / do

1 / 28.51 = -1 / 72 + 1 / do

28.51^-1 = -72^-1 + do^-1

do^-1 = 28.51^-1 + 72^-1

do^-1 = 0.048964

do = 20.42 cm

Then, the object location from the eye will be, the eye is 2cm from the glass. Then,

do_A = 20.42 + 2 = 22.42cm

do_A = 22.42 cm

Distance of object from the lens when Billy uses Annie glass

Then,

1 / f_A = 1 / di_B + 1 / do

1 / 33.8 = -1 / 119 + 1 / do

33.8^-1 = -119^-1 + do^-1

do^-1 = 33.8^-1 + 119^-1

do^-1 = 0.03799

do = 26.32 cm

Then, the object location from the eye will be, the eye is 2cm from the glass. Then,

do_B = 26.32 + 2 = 28.32 cm

do_B = 28.32 cm

Emmett is lifting a box vertically. Which forces are necessary for calculating the total force?
GrogVix [38]

When Emmett is lifting a box vertically, the forces that must be added to calculate the total force are: the gravitational force, tension force(the force exerted by Emmett to the box and the force exerted by the box to Emmett), and air resistance force.

Plane polarized light with intensity I0 is incident on a polarizer. What angle should the principle axis make with respenct to t
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

 Q = 47.06 degrees

Explanation:

Given:

- The transmitted intensity I = 0.464 I_o

- Incident Intensity I = I_o

Find:

What angle should the principle axis make with respect to the incident polarization

Solution:

- The relation of transmitted Intensity I to to the incident intensity I_o on a plane paper with its principle axis is given by:

                                     I = I_o * cos^2 (Q)

- Where Q is the angle between the Incident polarized Light and its angle with the principle axis. Hence, Using the relation given above:

                                     Q = cos ^-1 (sqrt (I / I_o))

- Plug the values in:

                                     Q = cos^-1 ( sqrt (0.464))

                                     Q = cos^-1 (0.6811754546)

                                     Q = 47.06 degrees
