A nearsighted person has a far point of 21.5cm and is prescribed contact lenses to correct her vision. What lens strength (a.k.a., lens power), in Diopters, should be prescribed? Give your answer using the usual convention of positive values for converging lenses and negative values for diverging lenses.
Please enter a numerical answer below. Accepted formats are numbers or "e" based scientific notation e.g. 0.23, -2, 146, 5.23e-8

4)Aseverely nearsighted person needs corective lenses. In one eye, this person can focus on objects over a range from as close as 15.8cm to as far away as 69.1cm. A) What strength (in diopters) contact lens would correct the vision in this eye? B) If instead of contact lenses, this person were to get glasses, the lenses of the glasses will sit a distance of 1.9 cm from the person's eye. What strength lens (in diopters) would be needed for...
1. I am nearsighted and looking for contact lenses which will correct my vision. I should select: a. A diverging lens, characterized by a negative focusing power b. A converging lens, characterized by a negative focusing power c. A diverging lens, characterized by a positive focusing power d. A converging lens, characterized by a positive focusing power 2. I have a glass lens (index of refraction 1.5) with a concave side with radius of curvature 2 m and a convex...
A person can see clearly up close, but cannot focus on objects beyond 82.0cm . She opts for contact lenses to correct her vision. Part A Is she nearsighted or farsighted? Part B What type of lens (converging or diverging) is needed to correct her vision? Part C What focal-length contact lens is needed ?
A nearsighted person wears contact lenses of refractive power -6.0 D. What is her far point? 17 cm 6.0 cm -17 cm -4.0 cm -6.0 cm
A person has a near point of 14 cm and a far point of 82 cm. Is the person nearsighted or farsighted? What focal length corrective lens will allow this person to read the whiteboard from the back of a large classroom? Are the corrective lenses converging or diverging? What is the power of the corrective lenses?
A nearsighted person can see images crisply to a far point of 50 cm away. A farsighted person can see that same distance. Prescribe contact lenses for both these people. Answer in diopters.
A nearsighted student wears contact lenses to correct for a far point that is 4.50m from her eyes. When she is not wearing her contact lenses, her near point is 24cm What is her near point when she is wearing her contacts? Express your answer using two significant figures.
A child's far point is 127 cm and her near point is 12.5 cm In what follows, we assume that we can model the eye as a simple camera, with a single thin lens forming a real image upon the retina. We also assume that the child's eyes are identical, with each retina lying 1.90 cm from the eye's "thin lens." (1) What is the power, P, of the eye when focused upon the far paint? (Enter your answer in...
A farsighted boy has a near point at 0.5m and requires contact lenses to correct his vision to the normal near point. What is the correct choice of lens power for the contact lenses? The answer is +6.0 diopters but I keep getting 2 so I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.
