Carol is farsighted ( presbyopia) and cannot see objects clearly that are closer to her eyes than about meter. She sees objects
clearly with a relaxed eye when they are distant. What is the refractive power of reading glasses that would allow her to read a book 50 cm away with a relaxed eye

Answer:
1.0 dioptres
Explanation:
Farsightedness is an eye defect in which a person can see far objects clearly but not near objects. That implies that the patients' near point is farther than 25cm which is the normal least distance of distinct vision.
Farsightedness results from the eyeball being too long or the crystalline lens not being sufficiently converging.
Carol is farsighted with a near point of about a meter (100cm). We desire to make a lens to enable her near point be reduced to about 50cm. The focal length and power of this lens is calculated in the image attached.
The power of a lens is the inverse of its focal length in meters hence the 100 in the formula for power of the lens.

Answer:
a) - 72.5°c
b) pressure = 3625.13 Pa
c) density = 0.063 kg/m^3
d) it is a subsonic aircraft
Explanation:
a) Determine Temperature
Temperature at 19.5 km ( 19500 m )
T = -131 + ( 0.003 * altitude in meters )
= -131 + ( 0.003 * 19500 ) = - 72.5°c
b) Determine pressure and density at 19.5 km altitude
Given :
Po (atmospheric pressure at sea level ) = 101kpa
R ( gas constant of air ) = 0.287 KJ/Kgk
T = -72.5°c ≈ 200.5 k
pressure = 3625.13 Pa
hence density = 0.063 kg/m^3
attached below is the remaining part of the solution
C) determine if the aircraft is subsonic or super sonic
Velocity ( v ) = =
= 283.8 m/s
hence it is a subsonic aircraft
