Long sightedness is a common vision condition in which nearby objects are blurry.

In this situation, the person with this condition of the eye where the curvature of the cornea is flat or the axial length of the eyeball is short. When light enters the eye, it does not focus directly on the retina, but focuses beyond the retina. This causes near images to appear out of focus and blurred.

Long sightedness is also called hyperopia, and sometimes presbyopia.

In dealing with a coil spring the spring constant will depend on the stiffness of the spring material, the thicknessof the wire from which the spring is wound and, diameterof the turns of the coil, the number of turns per unit length and the overall length of the spring.

Sound waves cannot travel through a Vacuum.

A vacuum is an area without any air, like space. So sound cannot travel through space because there is no matter for the vibrations to work in.

A galvanic cell is also known as voltaic cell provides electrical energy from the chemical energy.

Hooke's law states that within the elastic limit, stress developed is directly proportional to the strain produced in a body.Hooke’s law is valid only in the linear part of stress-strain curve. Hence, statement 1 is correct.

We know that,

Weight W = mg. That is mass times gravitational force.

Pressure = (Net Force) / (Applied area) = Newton / square meters

Measuring units of pressure are:

. Pascal
. Bar
. Torr
. Pounds per square inch (psi)
. Standard atmosphere (atm).
