The screwdriver used by an electrician has a plastic or rubber covers on them why

Physics

Nikitich [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Plastic or rubber are regarded as an insulator, and an insulator does not allow the flow of electric current through them, so the handles of screwdrivers as well as pliers that electricians use in repairing is been covered with plastic or rubber so that electric current is prevented to pass through it to the body of electricians to avoid been electrocuted as well as shock.

Reading glasses with a power of 1.50 diopters make reading a book comfortable for you when you wear them 1.8 cmcm from your eye.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The near point is  n =44.8 \ cm

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The power is  P  = 1.50

   The  distance from the eye is  k  =  1.8 \ cm

    The distance of the book from the eye is z =  -28 \ cm

Generally the focal length of the glasses is  

       f =  \frac{1}{P}

=>   f =  \frac{1}{1.50 }

=>   f =  0.667 \ m

=>   f =  66.7 \ cm

The object distance is evaluated as

     u  =  z + k

=>   u  =  -28 + 1.8

=>  u  =  -26.2 \ cm

The image distance is evaluated from lens formula as

       \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{f} + \frac{1}{u}

=>   \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{66.7} + \frac{1}{-26.2}

=>   v=- \frac{1}{0.0232}

=>    v=- 43 \ cm

The  near point is evaluated as

      n = -v +  k

=>    n =-(-43) +  1.8

=>    n =44.8 \ cm

Two pipes of equal length are each open at one end. Each has a fundamental frequency of 470 Hz at 310 K. In one pipe the air tem
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Given:

Fundamental frequency: 470Hz

T1:310k,T2:315k

Calculating velocity

Recall v=(331m/s)✓[T1/273k)

V=331✓(310/273)

V1=331*(1.0656)=352.72m/s

V2=331✓(315/273)=355.5m/s

Fundamental frequency=4L

F2=F1(V2/V1)

F2=470(355.5/352.72)=474.4Hz

Beat=[F2-F1]=474.4-470=4.4Hz
