what is the application of a spherometer in the medical field?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

To correct the defects of vision by measuring the radius of curvature and thus the power of the lenses.

Explanation:

A spherometer is an instrument used to measure the curvature of objects such as lenses and curved mirrors.

Generally it consists of a fine screw which is moving in a nut carried on the center of a 3 small legged table or frame. The feet forms the vertices of an equilateral triangle. The lower end of the screw and those of the table legs are finely tapered and terminate in hemispheres.

If the screw has two turns of the thread to the milli meter the head is generally divided into 50 equal parts, so that differences of 0.01 millimeter may be measured without using a vernier scale.

The spherometer is used to measure the radius of curvature of the lenses so that the opthalmologist find the focal length of the lens and then give the  power to the lens to correct the defects of vision.

A motorist travels due North at 90 km/h for 2 hours. She changes direction and travels West at 60 km/for 1 hour.
a) Calculate the average speed of the motorist [4]
b) Calculate the average velocity of the motorist.

Answers

Answer:

a. 50km/hr.

b. 10km/hr

Explanation:

Average speed, which is calculated by dividing the total distance travelled by the time interval as follows:

Average speed = total distance travelled ÷ time

Average velocity is calculated by dividing the total displacement by the time interval as follows:

Average velocity = change in displacement (∆x) ÷ time (t)

According to this question, a motorist travels due North at 90 km/h for 2 hours. She then changes direction and travels West at 60 km/for 1 hour.

Total distance of this journey is 90 + 60 = 150

Total time taken = 1 + 2 = 3hours

Average speed = 150/3

= 50km/hr.

b.) Average velocity = x2 - x1/t

Average velocity = 90 - 60/3

= 30/3

= 10km/hr

a man is standing near the edge of a cliff 85 meters high. he throws a stone upward vertically with an intial velocity of 10 m/s. the stone clears the cliff edge on the way down and falls all the way to the ground. what is the maximum height of the stone above the ground

Answers

Answer:

h = 90.10 m

Explanation:

Given that,

A man is standing near the edge of a cliff 85 meters high, h₀ = 85 m

The initial speed of the stone, u = 10 m/s

The path followed by the projectile is given by :

[tex]h(t)=-4.9t^2+10t+85[/tex] ....(1)

For maximum height,

Put dh/dt = 0

So,

[tex]\dfrac{dh}{dt}=-9.8t+10=0\\\\t=\dfrac{10}{9.8}\\\\=1.02\ s[/tex]

Put the value of t in equation (1).

[tex]h(t)=-4.9(1.02)^2+10(1.02)+85\\\\=90.10\ m[/tex]

So, the maximum height of the stone is equal to 90.10 m.

Answers

Complete question:

An air-filled parallel-plate capacitor has plates of area 2.90 cm2 separated by 2.50 mm. The capacitor is connected to a(n) 18.0 V battery. Find the value of its capacitance.

Answer:

The value of its capacitance is 1.027 x 10⁻¹² F

Explanation:

Given;

area of the plate, A = 2.9 cm² = 2.9 x 10⁻⁴ m²

separation distance of the plates, d = 2.5 mm = 2.5 x 10⁻³ m

voltage of the battery, V = 18 V

The value of its capacitance is calculated as;

[tex]C = \frac{k\epsilon_0A}{d} \\\\C = \frac{(1)(8.85\times 10^{-12})(2.9 \times 10^{-4})}{2.5 \times 10^{-3}} \\\\C = 1.027 \times 10^{-12} \ F[/tex]

A Michelson interferometer operating at a 600nm wavelength has a 2.02-cm-long glass cell in one arm. To begin, the air is pumped out of the cell and mirror M2 is adjusted to produce a bright spot at the center of the interference pattern. Then a valve is opened and air is slowly admitted into the cell. The index of refraction of air at 1.00 atm pressure is 1.00028.
How many bright-dark-bright fringe shifts are observed as the cell fills with air?

Answers

Answer:

19

Explanation:

Given that:

wavelength = 600 nm

Distance (d) = 2.02 cm = 2.02 × 10⁻² m

refraction index of air (n) = 1.00028

Pressure = 1.00 atm

The number of bright-dark-bright fringe shifts can be determined by using the formula:

[tex]\Delta m = \dfrac{2d}{\lambda} (n -1 ) \\ \\ \Delta m = \dfrac{2\times2.02 \times 10^{-2}}{600\times 10^{-9}} (1.00028 -1 ) \\ \\ \Delta m = 67333.33 \times 10^{-5}(1.00028 -1) \\ \\ \Delta m = 67333.33 \times 10^{-5}(2.8\times 10^{-4}) \\ \\ \Delta m = 18.853 \\ \\ \mathbf{\Delta m = 19}[/tex]

A 7.5-kg rock and a 8.9 × 10-4-kg pebble are held near the surface of the earth. (a) Determine the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted on each by the earth. (b) Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of each object when released.

Answers

Answer:

F' = 73.7 N

F = 8.749×10⁻³ N

a' = a =  9.83 m/s²

Explanation:

(a)

For the rock

Applying

F' = Gm'm/r²................... Equation 1

Where F = magnitude of the gravitational force on the rock, G = Gravitational constant, m' = mass of the rock, m = mass of the earth, r = radius of the earth.

From the question,

Given: m' = 7.5 kg

Constant: m = 5.98×10²⁴ kg, G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg², r = 6.37×10⁶ m

Substitute these values into equation 1

F' = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ (7.5)(5.98×10²⁴)/(6.37×10⁶)²

F' = 7.37×10¹ N

F' = 73.7 N

Also, For the pebble,

F = GMm/r².............. Equation 2

Where M = mass of the pebble, F = Gravitational force exerted on the pebble by the earth

Given: M = 8.9×10⁻⁴ kg,

Substitute into equation 2

F = 6.67×10⁻¹¹(8.9×10⁻⁴)(5.98×10²⁴)/(6.37×10⁶)²

F = 8.749×10⁻³ N

(b)

For the rock,

a' = F'/m'

Where a' = magnitude of the acceleration of the rock

a' = 73.7/7.5

a' = 9.83 m/s²

For the pebble,

a = F/M

Where a = acceleration of the pebble

a = (8.749×10⁻³)/(8.9×10⁻⁴)

a = 9.83 m/s²

An air-filled pipe is found to have successive harmonics at 700 Hz , 900 Hz , and 1100 Hz . It is unknown whether harmonics below 700 Hz and above 1100 Hz exist in the pipe. What is the length of the pipe

Answers

Answer:

the length of the pipe is 0.85 m or 85 cm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

The successive harmonics are;  700 Hz , 900 Hz , and 1100 H

Now, for a closed pipe,

length of pipe (L) = λ/4

Harmonics; 1x, 3x, 5x, 7x, 9x, 11x

1100Hz - 900Hz = 200Hz

⇒ 2x = 200Hz

x = 100Hz ( fundamental frequency )

λ = V/f = 340 /100 = 3.4 m

Now

Length L = λ / 4

L = 3.4 / 4

L = 0.85 m or 85 cm

Therefore, the length of the pipe is 0.85 m or 85 cm

A 35 kg child slides down a playground slide at a constant speed. The slide has a height of 3.8 m and is 8.0 m long. Find the magnitude of the kinetic friction force acting on the child.

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the kinetic frictional force acting on the child is 162.93 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the child, m = 35 kg

height of the slide, h = 3.8 m

length of the slide, d = 8.0 m

The change in thermal energy associated with the kinetic frictional force is calculated as follows;

[tex]\Delta E_{th} + \Delta K.E + \Delta U = 0\\\\\Delta E_{th} + (\frac{1}{2} mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2) + (mgh_f - mgh_i) =0\\\\since \ the \ speed \ is \ constant, \ v_f = v_i \ and \ \Delta K.E = 0\\\\Also, \ final \ height \ , h _f= 0\\\\\Delta E_{th} - mgh_i = 0\\\\\Delta E_{th} = mgh_i\\\\\Delta E_{th} = 35 \times9.8 \times 3.8\\\\\Delta E_{th} = 1303.4 \ J[/tex]

The magnitude of the kinetic frictional force that produced this thermal energy is calculated from the work done by frictional force;

[tex]\Delta E_{th} = F \times d\\\\F = \frac{\Delta E_{th} }{d} \\\\F = \frac{1303.4}{8} \\\\F = 162.93 \ N[/tex]

Therefore, the magnitude of the kinetic frictional force acting on the child is 162.93 N

an object is 70 um long and 47.66um wide. how long and wide is the object in km?​

Answers

Answer:

length =  7*10^(-8)km

width = 4.666*10^(-8) km

Explanation:

We know that:

1 μm = 1*10^(-6) m

and

1km = 1*10^3 m

or

1m = 1*10^(-3) km

if we replace the meter in the first equation, we get:

1 μm = 1*10^(-6)*1*10^(-3) km

1 μm = 1*10^(-6 - 3)km

1 μm = 1*10^(-9)km

Now with this relationship we can transform our measures:

Length: 70 μm is 70 times 1*10^(-9)km, or:

L = 70*1*10^(-9)km = 7*10^(-8)km

And for width, we have 47.66um, this is 46.66 times 1*10^(-9)km, or:

W = 46.66*1*10^(-9)km = 4.666*10^(-8) km

a mass of air occupied 150 cm3 at 20°c and 760 mmhg pressure. calculate it volume when heated to 100°c and constant pressure​

Answers

Answer:

191 cm³

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting celsius temperature to Kelvin temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

T(K) = T(°C) + 273

Initial temperature (T₁) = 20 °C

Initial temperature (T₁) = 20 °C + 273

Initial temperature (T₁) = 293 K

Final temperature (T₂) = 100 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 100 °C + 273

Final temperature (T₂) = 373 K

Finally, we shall determine the final volume of the air. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial volume (V₁) = 150 cm³

Initial temperature (T₁) = 293 K

Final temperature (T₂) = 373 K

Pressure = constant

Final volume (V₂) =?

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

150 / 293 = V₂ / 373

Cross multiply

293 × V₂ = 150 × 373

293 × V₂ = 55950

Divide both side by 293

V₂ = 55950 / 293

V₂ ≈ 191 cm³

Thus, the final volume of the air is 191 cm³

A mass of 4 kg is traveling over a quarter circular ramp with a radius of 10 meters. At the bottom of the incline the mass is moving at 21.3 m/s and at the top of the incline the mass is moving at 2.8 m/s. What is the work done by all non-conservative force in Joules?

Answers

Answer:

499.7 J

Explanation:

Since total mechanical energy is conserved,

U₁ + K₁ + W₁ = U₂ + K₂ + W₂ where U₁ = potential energy at bottom of incline = mgh₁, K₁ = kinetic energy at bottom of incline = 1/2mv₁² and W₁ = work done by friction at bottom of incline, and U₂ = potential energy at top of incline = mgh₂, K₁ = kinetic energy at top of incline = 1/2mv₂² and W₂ = work done by friction at top of incline. m = mass = 4 kg, h₁ = 0 m, v₁ = 21.3 m/s, W₁ = 0 J, h₂ = radius of circular ramp = 10 m, v₂ = 2.8 m/s, W₂ = unknown.

So, U₁ + K₁ + W₁ = U₂ + K₂ + W₂

mgh₁ + 1/2mv₁²  + W₁ = mgh₂ + 1/2mv₂²  + W₂

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

mgh₁ + 1/2mv₁²  + W₁ = mgh₂ + 1/2mv₂²  + W₂

4 kg × 9.8 m/s²(0) + 1/2 × 4 kg × (21.3 m/s)²  + 0 = 4 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 10 m + 1/2 × 4 kg × (2.8 m/s)²  + W₂

0 + 2 kg × 453.69 m²/s² = 392 kgm²/s² + 2 kg × 7.84 m²/s²  + W₂

907.38 kgm²/s² = 392 kgm²/s² + 15.68 kgm²/s²  + W₂

907.38 kgm²/s² = 407.68 kgm²/s² + W₂

W₂ = 907.38 kgm²/s² - 407.68 kgm²/s²

W₂ = 499.7 kgm²/s²

W₂ = 499.7 J

Since friction is a non-conservative force, the work done by all the non-conservative forces is thus W₂ = 499.7 J

A 45.00 kg person in a 43.00 kg cart is coasting with a speed of 19 m/s before it goes up a hill. there is no friction, what is the maximum vertical height the person in the cart can reach?

Answers

Answer:

the maximum vertical height the person in the cart can reach is 18.42 m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the person in cart, m₁ = 45 kg

mass of the cart, m₂ = 43 kg

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

final speed of the cart before it goes up the hill, v = 19 m/s

Apply the principle of conservation of energy;

[tex]mgh_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv^2_{max}\\\\ gh_{max} = \frac{1}{2}v^2_{max}\\\\h_{max} = \frac{v^2_{max}}{2g} \\\\h_{max} =\frac{(19)^2}{2\times 9.8} \\\\h_{max} = 18.42 \ m[/tex]

Therefore, the maximum vertical height the person in the cart can reach is 18.42 m
