Discuss the path that light takes through the human eye

Physics

The cornea is shaped like a dome and bends light to help the eye focus. Some of this light enters the eye through an opening called the pupil (PYOO-pul). The iris (the colored part of the eye) controls how much light the pupil lets in. Next, light passes through the lens (a clear inner part of the eye).

From the cornea, the light passes through the pupil. The iris, or the colored part of your eye, controls the amount of light passing through. From there, it then hits the lens. This is the clear structure inside the eye that focuses light rays onto the retina.

1. A spring or elastic can be stretched to store energy as it wants to return to rest.

2. Gravitational every can be is stored by moving a ball against gravity when lifted then released when bounced.

3. Separating two charged plates will store energy as the plates want to return to their original position.

Compare the use of coal to the use of petroleum from 1800 to 2004.
ch4aika [34]

Answer and explanation;

The use of coal has steadily increased from 1800 to 2004. Burning coal was the leading cause of global fossil carbon emissions. Petroleum use rose quickly after 1950.

Coal can be defined as a sedimentary rock that burns. It was formed by the decomposition of plant matter, and it is a complex substance that can be found in many forms.

Energy consumption patterns have changed over the history of our country as we developed new energy sources and as our uses of energy changed. Coal became dominant in the late 19th century before being overtaken by petroleum products in the middle of the last century, a time when natural gas usage also rose quickly.

100.0 J of work accelerates a 0.500 kg hockey puck across an ice rink (a frictionless
Olegator [25]

Answer:

d. 100.0 J

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. This tells us that the mechanical energy in the final state is equal to the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work done on a body. In this way we come to the following equation:

E₁ + W₁₋₂ = E₂

where:

E₁ = mechanical energy at state 1. [J] (units of Joules)

E₂ = mechanical energy at state 2. [J]

W₁₋₂ = work done from 1 to 2 [J]

We have to remember that mechanical energy is defined as the sum of potential energy plus kinetic energy.

The energy in the initial state is zero, since there is no movement of the hockey puck before imparting force. E₁ = 0.

The Work on the hockey puck is equal to:

W₁₋₂ = 100 [J]

100 = E₂

Since the ice rink  is horizontal there is no potential energy, there is only kinetic energy

Ek = 100 [J]

It can be said that the work applied on the hockey puck turns into kinetic energy

PLEASE HELPPPP ❗️❗️❗️
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 3 main forces at work here, gravity, normal and friction. The gravity pulls the car straight down and is what keeps the car on the ground. Normal force is straight up from the points where the car is touching, so since the wheels are the only parts of the car touching the street, this is where all the normal force is. Friction force opposes any and all motion, the car wants to slide down the hill and would slide down the hill if there was no friction, so the friction force is in the opposite direction of the cars intended motion.
