Answer:

Applications of zeroth law of thermodynamics:

1. When we get very hot food, we wait to make it normal. In this case, hot food exchanges heat with surrounding and brings equilibrium.

2. We keep things in the fridge and those things come equilibrium with fridge temperature.

3. Temperature measurement with a thermometer or another device.

4. In the HVAC system, sensors or thermostats are used to indicate temperature. It always comes in a thermal equilibrium with room temperature.

5. If you and the swimming pool you’re in are at the same temperature, no heat is flowing from you to it or from it to you (although the possibility is there). You’re in thermal equilibrium.

A farsighted boy has a near point at 2.3 m and requires eyeglasses to correct his vision. Corrective lenses are available in inc

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

P = 3.5 D

Explanation:

As we know that convex lens is to be used to make the near point of eye to be correct

So we will have

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}$

here we have

$d_i = 2.3 m = 230 cm$

$d_o = 25 cm$

now plug in all values into the formula

$-\frac{1}{230} + \frac{1}{25} = \frac{1}{f}$

$f = 28 cm$

now for power of lens

$P = \frac{1}{f}$

$P = \frac{1}{0.28} = 3.5 D$

so the power in dioptre is

P = 3.5 D

Find the gravitational potential energy of an 84 kg person standing atop Mt. Everest at an altitude of 8848 m. Use sea level as

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

$E=7.28\times 10^6\ J$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a person, m = 84 kg

The person is standing at a top of Mt. Everest at an altitude of 8848 m

We need to find the gravitational potential energy of the person. We know that the gravitational potential energy is possessed due to the position of an object. It is given by :

E = mgh, g is the acceleration due to gravity

$E=84\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 8848\ m\\\\E=7283673.6\ J\\\\E=7.28\times 10^6\ J$
