Answer:

4.022 seconds and 4.99 seconds

Explanation:

Hello!

The free fall of the stone corresponds to a uniformly varied rectilinear movement

d=V_0*t+1/2*g*t^2

Being a free fall the initial speed is zero.

The distance is positive when considered in the same direction and direction as acceleration and speed.

256 feet stone

79.25 m=0 m⁄s*t+1/2*9,8 m⁄s^2 *t^2

t = 4.022 seconds

400 feet stone

121.92m=0 m⁄s*t+1/2*9,8 m⁄s^2 *t^2

t= 4,99 seconds

You see lightning and 30 seconds later you hear thunder. how far away is the thunderstorm? take the speed of sound to be 339 m/s
Jobisdone [24]
Let the observer be 'd' distance away from the thunderstorm and let light take 't' time to reach the observer
Since the speed of sound and light remains constant in a particular medium, we can use
      Speed = Distance/Time

For light,
   3 x 10^8 = d/t
                t = d/(3 x 10^8)   -1 

For sound,
           339 = d/(t + 30)       -2

Putting value from 1 in 2.
               d = 10^4 m(approx)

The near point of a farsighted person's uncorrected eyes is 80 cm. what power contact lens should be used to move the near point
makvit [3.9K]
To solve this problem, we will get f and then we will use it to calculate the power.

So, for this farsighted person,
do = 25 cm and di = -80
Therefore:
1/f = (1/25) + (1/-80) = 0.00275 = 0.275 m

Power = 1/f = 1/0.275 = +3.6363 Diopeters.
This means that the lens is converging.
