p=3.0D contact lens is needed to correct his distant vision.

The person is suffering from myopia and hence need a concave lens to correct the defect. The lens should be such that an object at infinity must form its image at the far point.

Hence,f= -32.3cm

= -0.323m

we can define the power of the lens as the reciprocal of its focal length in metre.

The power of lens is the ability to converge and diverge rays of light.

The power of the lens can be obtained as:

p= 1/f

p=1/(-0.323)

p=3.0D

Thus,the power is 3.0D to correct his distant vision.

Answer: 1.176×10^-3 s

Explanation: The time constant formulae for an RC circuit is given below as

t =RC

Where t = time constant , R = magnitude of resistance = 21 ohms , C = capacitance of capacitor = 56 uf = 56×10^-6 F

t = 56×10^-6 × 21

t = 1176×10^-6

t = 1.176×10^-3 s

By pythagorean theorem then, the vertical side of the right triangle must be 12.
Then if x is the angle between the horizontal side and the hypotenuse, sin(x) = 12/13 but also the anser should be in this sentences.

Answer:

question5: F=74312.5N

question6: charge at the end of antenna=0.37N

Explanation:

Coulomb's law: the magnitude of the force of attraction or repulsion due to two charges is proportional to the product of the magnitude of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the charges.

⇒ $F\alpha\frac{q1*q2}{r^{2}}$
