Answer:  

<h2>E) 52.5 cm</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

period T= 3 milliseconds= 0.003

velocity v= 175m/s

wave lenght λ=?

Step two:

we know that f=1/T

the expression relating period and wave lenght is

v=λ/T

λ=v*T

λ=175*0.002

λ=0.525m

to cm= 0.525*100

=52.5cm

The wavelength of the wave is E) 52.5 cm

Assume that the physics instructor would like to have normal visual acuity from 21 cm out to infinity and that his bifocals rest
shutvik [7]

This is note the complete question, the complete question is:

One of the lousy things about getting old (prepare yourself!) is that you can be both near-sighted and farsighted at once. Some original defect in the lens of your eye may cause you to only be able to focus on some objects a limited distance away (near-sighted). At the same time, as you age, the lens of your eye becomes more rigid and less able to change its shape. This will stop you from being able to focus on objects that are too close to your eye (far-sighted). Correcting both of these problems at once can be done by using bi-focals, or by placing two lenses in the same set of frames. An old physicist instructor can only focus on objects that lie at distance between 0.47 meters and 5.4 meters.

Assume that the physics instructor would like to have normal visual acuity from 21 cm out to infinity and that his bifocals rest 2.0 cm from his eye. What is the refractive power of the portion of the lense that will correct the instructors nearsightedness?

Answer:  3.04 D

Explanation:

when an object is held 21 cm away from the instructor's eyes, the spectacle lens must produce 0.47m ( the near point) away.

An image of 0.47m from the eye will be ( 47 - 2 )

i.e 45 cm from the spectacle lens since the spectacle lens is 2cm away from the eye.

Also, the image distance will become negative

gap between lense and eye = 2cm

Therefore;

image distance d₁ = - 45cm = - 0.45m

object distance  d₀ = 21 - 2 = 19cm = 0.19m

P = 1/f = 1/ d = 1/d₀ + 1/d₁ = 1/0.19 + (-1/0.45)

P = 1/f =  5.26315789 - 2.22222222

P = 1/f = 3.04093567 ≈ 3.04 D

An air-filled parallel-plate capacitor has plates of area 2.90 cm2 separated by 2.50 mm. The capacitor is connected to a(n) 18.0
Murrr4er [49]

Complete question:

An air-filled parallel-plate capacitor has plates of area 2.90 cm2 separated by 2.50 mm. The capacitor is connected to a(n) 18.0 V battery. Find the value of its capacitance.

Answer:

The value of its capacitance is 1.027 x 10⁻¹² F

Explanation:

Given;

area of the plate, A = 2.9 cm² = 2.9 x 10⁻⁴ m²

separation distance of the plates, d = 2.5 mm = 2.5 x 10⁻³ m

voltage of the battery, V = 18 V

The value of its capacitance is calculated as;

C = \frac{k\epsilon_0A}{d} \\\\C = \frac{(1)(8.85\times 10^{-12})(2.9 \times 10^{-4})}{2.5 \times 10^{-3}} \\\\C = 1.027 \times 10^{-12} \ F

Therefore, the value of its capacitance is 1.027 x 10⁻¹² F
