Answer:

the closest distance that she can see an object clearly when she wears her contacts is 22.2 cm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question,

near point = 20 cm

far point = 2 m = 200 cm

Now, for an object that is infinitely far away, the image is at is its far point.

so using the following expression, we can determine the focal length

1/f = 1/i + 1/o

where f is the focal length, i is the image distance and o is the object distance.

here, far point i = 2 m = 200 cm  and v is ∞

so we substitute

1/f = 1/(-200 cm)  +  1/∞

f = -200 cm

Also, for object at its closest point, the image appear at near point,

so

1/f = 1/i + 1/o

we make o the subject of formula

o = ( i × f ) / ( i - f )

given that near point i = 20 cm

we substitute

o = ( -20 × -200 ) / ( -20 - (-200) )

o = 4000 / 180

o = 22.2 cm

Therefore, the closest distance that she can see an object clearly when she wears her contacts is 22.2 cm

A water tower is a familiar sight in many towns. The purpose of such a tower is to provide storage capacity and to provide suffi
Mademuasel [1]

The image of the water tower and the houses is in the attachment.

Answer: (a) P = 245kPa;

(b) P = 173.5 kPa

Explanation: <u>Gauge</u> <u>pressure</u> is the pressure relative to the atmospheric pressure and it is only dependent of the height of the liquid in the container.

The pressure is calculated as: P = hρg

where

ρ is the density of the liquid, in this case, water, which is ρ = 1000kg/m³;

When it is full the reservoir contains 5.25×10⁵ kg. So, knowing the density, you know the volume:

ρ = \frac{m}{V}

V = ρ/m

V = \frac{5.25.10^{5}}{10^{3}}

V = 525 m³

To know the height of the spherical reservoir, its diameter is needed and to determine it, find the radius:

V = \frac{4}{3}.\pi.r^{3}

r = \sqrt[3]{ \frac{3}{4\pi } .V}

r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{525.3}{4\pi } }

r = 5.005 m

diameter = 2*r = 10.01m

(a) Height for House A:

h = 15 + 10.01

h = 25.01

P = hρg

P = 25.01.10³.9.8

P = 245.10³ Pa or 245kPa

(b) h = 25 - 7.3

h = 17.71

P = hρg

P = 17.71.1000.9.8

P = 173.5.10³ Pa or 173.5 kPa

How is it possible for a person watching a baseball game on TV to hear sounds before someone who is actually watching the same g
Andreyy89

Answer:

It is possible because, the TV broadcast audio and video signals in radio frequency which travels at the speed of light while the audio signals travel to those present in the stadium at the speed of sound which is over eight hundred thousand times slower than the speed of light

Explanation:

It is possible because of the following;

1. TV signals from the camera (including the captured sound) very close to the field of play are transmitted through the radio frequency bands and as such are a form of electromagnetic radiation that travels at the speed of light which is about 300,000 km/second

It will therefore, take 1 second for a sound of the game to reach someone located at 300,000,000 meters watching a live televised game

2. The speed of sound is about 343 m/second and it therefore takes up to 2 seconds for a sound to reach someone 686 meters away from the ball in the stadium.

( Just answer 1 &amp; 2) Please help! This is the last thing I have to do. I will mark brainliest asap!!
natima [27]

Answer:

1. Formula = distance/time

D= 112.0 meters, time =4 secs

Speed = d/t =112.0/4

= 28m/s

2.Formula = distance/time

D= 1/4 x 16093.44 m

= 402.35m

Time = 15secs

Speed= d/t

= 402.35/15

=26m/s

The ability of a singer to shatter glass is due to: <br> bending of a wave around an obstacle
Rzqust [24]
The ability of singers to shatter glass is due to the control of frequency in their voices. The sound waves will vibrate the air particles that surround the glass at its resonant frequency. The glass will break if a singer sings too loudly.
