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.

A loader sack of total mass

vampirchik [111]

Question: A loader sack of total mass

is l000 grams falls down from

the floor of a lorry 200 cm high

Calculate the workdone by the

gravity of the load.

Answer:

19.6 Joules

Explanation:

Applying

W = mgh........................ Equation 1

Where W = Workdone by gravity on the load, m = mass of the loader sack, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity

From the question,

Given: m = 1000 grams = (1000/1000) kilogram = 1 kg, h = 200 cm = 2 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

W = (1×2×9.8)

W = 19.6 Joules

Hence the work done by gravity on the load is 19.6 Joules

A box is pulled with a horizontal force of 500N and moves 5m what is work done

dalvyx [7]

The answer to the question is shown below:

We all know that formula for solving work done is the force multiplied by distance covered:
Work done = Force x distance
Distance = 5m
Force = 500 N
Work done = 500 N * 5m
Work done = 2500 J

You are trying to hear your friend give directions to new store in town. But from your distance (1 point) of 15 m you only hear

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given,

Intensity of sound = 20 dB

distance = 15 m

intensity of sound is increased to = 50 dB

distance between the sound level = ?

Using relation

$L_2 = L_1 - |20(log \dfrac{r_2}{r_1})|$

L₁ = 20 dB L₂ = 50 dB r₁ = 15 m r₂ = ?

$log (\dfrac{r_2}{r_1}) = \dfrac{L_1 -L_2}{20}$

$\dfrac{r_2}{r_1}= 10^{\dfrac{|L_1 -L_2|}{20}}$

$r_2 =r_1 10^{\dfrac{|L_1 -L_2|}{20}}$

$r_2 =15 \times 10^{\dfrac{|20-50|}{20}}$

$r_2 =15 \times 10^{-1.5}$

r₂ = 0.47 m

r₂ = 47 cm

hence, the correct answer is option D

Sound waves that enter the external acoustic meatus eventually encounter the __________, which then vibrates at the same frequen

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

tympanic membrane (eardrum)

Explanation:

The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.
