Answer: a. 53cm b. Diverging c. 0.02dioptres
Explanation:
Since the person in question cannot see far object clearly, it shows that the individual is suffering from myopia (short sightedness).
If the object distance (u) is 53cm. for the person to be able to see far way, it means the image must be at infinity. This shows image distance v is infinity. Using the lens formula
1/f = 1/u+1/v
1/f = 1/53 + 1/Infinity
1/f = 1/53 + 0
f=53cm
b) The lens used is concave lens (diverging lens) to diverge all rays outwards
c) Power of a lens P will be 1/53.
P = 0.02dioptres
If you clap your hands, the shock causes the air around your hands to begin vibrating. When air particles vibrate, they bump into other particles near them. Then these particles begin to vibrate and bump into even more air particles. When the air particles begin vibrating the air inside your ear, you hear a sound.
