After an eye examination, you put some eyedrops on your sensitive eyes. The cornea (the front part of the eye) has an index of r
mina [271]

Answer:

t = 103.45 n m

Explanation:

given,

refractive index of cornea = 1.38

refractive index of eye drop = 1.45

wavelength of refractive index = 600 nm

refractive index of eye drop is greater than refractive index of cornea and the air.

Formula used in this case

for constructive interference

2 n t = (m + \dfrac{1}{2})\lambda

At m = 0 for the minimum thickness, so

2\times 1.45 \times t = (0 + 0.5)\times 600

2.9 \times t =300

t =\dfrac{300}{2.9}

t = 103.45 n m

the minimum thickness of the film of eyedrops t = 103.45 n m

A car travels from Boston to Hartford in 4 hours. The two cities are 240 kilometers apart. What was the average speed of the car
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Average speed is 60 km/hour

Explanation:

When we need to calculate average speed, we use this equation:

V = \frac{x_{f} - x_{o}}{t_{f} - t_{o}}

Where:   x_{o} = 0 km   position at the beginning

              x_{f} = 240 km   at the end

              t_{o} = 0 hours

              t_{f} = 4 hours

Then:     V = \frac{240 km - 0 km}{4 hours - 0 hours}

              V = \frac{240 km}{4 hours}

Finally    V = 60 km/hour

An object weighing 49 N is pushed across a floor by a force of 12 N. What is the acceleration of the object?
NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of object  = 49N

Force applied = 12N

Unknown:

Acceleration of object  = ?

Solution:

The acceleration of the object is found by dividing the force by the weight;

 Acceleration  = \frac{12}{49}   = 0.25m/s²
