The value of g is greater at the poles than at the equator why​

Physics
2 answers:
Degger [83]3 years ago
4 0
The reason is because the Earth is not a perfect sphere. The distance from the poles to the centre of the Earth is smaller and the gravity is slightly greater.
The distance from the equator to the centre is slightly bigger so gravity is slightly smaller.

Answer:

because the gravitational pull is maximum at the poles and decreases as it comes down toward the equator.

Where is the near point of an normal eye when accidentally wear a contact lens with a power of +2.0 diopters?
Lerok [7]

Answer:

The near point of an eye with power of +2 dopters, u' = - 50 cm

Given:

Power of a contact lens, P = +2.0 diopters

Solution:

To calculate the near point, we need to find the focal length of the lens which is given by:

Power, P = \frac{1}{f}

where

f = focal length

Thus

f = \frac{1}{P}

f = \frac{1}{2} = + 0.5 m

The near point of the eye is the point distant such that the image formed at this point can be seen clearly by the eye.

Now, by using lens maker formula:

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

where

u = object distance = 25 cm = 0.25 m = near point of a normal eye

u' = image distance

Now,

\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}

\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{0.5} - \frac{1}{0.25}

\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}

Solving the above eqn, we get:

u' = - 0.5 m = - 50 cm
