Carol is farsighted ( presbyopia) and cannot see objects clearly that are closer to her eyes than about meter. She sees objects
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

1.0 dioptres

Explanation:

Farsightedness is an eye defect in which a person can see far objects clearly but not near objects. That implies that the patients' near point is farther than 25cm which is the normal least distance of distinct vision.

Farsightedness results from the eyeball being too long or the crystalline lens not being sufficiently converging.

Carol is farsighted with a near point of about a meter (100cm). We desire to make a lens to enable her near point be reduced to about 50cm. The focal length and power of this lens is calculated in the image attached.

The power of a lens is the inverse of its focal length in meters hence the 100 in the formula for power of the lens.

You are conducting an experiment inside an elevator that can move in a vertical shaft. A load is hung vertically from the ceilin
Ivan

Answer: The elevator must be accelerating.

Explanation:

As the tension force is opposing to the the force of gravity on the load which is hung vertically, and the tension force can adopt any value in order to comply with Newton's 2nd law, if the tension force is less than the force due to gravity, this means that all system is not in equilibrium, so it must be accelerating.

If we assume that the downward is the positive direction, we can write:

mg - T = ma

If T = 0.9 mg, ⇒ mg (1-0.9) =0.1 mg = m a ⇒a = 0.1 g , in downward direction.

Train cars are coupled together by being bumped into one another. Suppose two loaded cars are moving toward one another, the fir
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

7560 Joules

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of first car = 1.5\times 10^5\ kg

m_2 = Mass of second car = 2\times 10^5\ kg

u_1 = Initial Velocity of first car = 0.3 m/s

u_2 = Initial Velocity of second car = -0.12 m/s

v = Velocity of combined mass

As linear momentum of the system is conserved

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{m_1u_1 + m_2u_2}{m_1 + m_2}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{1.5\times 10^5\times 0.3 + 2\times 10^5\times -0.12}{1.5\times 10^5 + 2\times 10^5}\\\Rightarrow v=0.06\ m/s

Energy lost is

\Delta E=\Delta E_i-\Delta E_f\\\Rightarrow \Delta=\frac{1}{2}(m_1u_1^2 + m_2u_2^2-(m_1+m_2)v^2)\\\Rightarrow \Delta=\frac{1}{2}(1.5\times 10^5\times 0.3^2 + 2\times 10^5\times (-0.12)^2-(1.5\times 10^5 + 2\times 10^5)\times 0.06^2)\\\Rightarrow \Delta=7560\ J

The Energy lost in the collision is 7560 Joules
