The human eye is one of the most valuable sense organ. The closest object that a typical young person with normal vision can focus closest to is 25 cm

The lens in the eye forms the image on the retina. The image formed is real and inverted. The retina is a very delicate membrane containing numerous light sensitive cells.

This light sensitive cells gets activated when light falls on it and generates electric signals. These electric signals are sent to the brain via the optic nerves present in the eye. The brain finally processes these signals and thus we see the object clearly.

The ability of the lens of the eye to adjust its focal length accordingly is called the power of accommodation,

The minimum distance, at which the object can be seen clearly without any strain is called the least distance of distinct vision.

To see an object clearly without any strain is when we place it at about 25 cm from the eye.

nasty-shy [4]
Given:
Water, 2 kilograms
T1 = 20 degrees Celsius, T2 = 100 degrees Celsius.  

Required:
Heat produced  

Solution:
Q (heat) = nRT = nR(T2 = T1)
Q (heat) = 2 kilograms (4.184 kiloJoules per kilogram Celsius) (100 degrees Celsius – 20 degrees Celsius)
<u>Q (heat) = 669.42 Joules
</u>This is the amount of heat produced in boiling 2 kg of water.

fgiga [73]

Answer:

t = 17199 years

Explanation:

given,

mass of sample = 1.09 Kg

Activity of living material   = 15 decays / min /g

Activity of living material   = 15 x 1000 decays /min /kg

Activity of living material per 1.09 kg A = 1.09 x 15 x 1000 decays / min

Activity of after time t is A ' = 2020

half life = 57300 years

desegregation constant

λ = 0.693 / 5700

A'= A e^{-\lambda\ t}

A'= 1.09 \times 15 \times 1000 e^{-\lambda\ t}

2020= 1.09 \times 15 \times 1000 e^{-\dfrac{0.693}{5700}\times t}

0.124=e^{-\dfrac{0.693}{5700}\times t}

taking ln both side

\dfrac{0.693}{5700}\times t = 2.09

t = 17199 years

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

m_l=550\ kg is the mass of librarian.

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of the system, m_s=3.3\times 10^{3}\ kg
  • velocity of librarian relative to the ground, v_l=2.5\ m.s^{-1}
  • velocity of the cart relative to the ground, v_c=0.5\ m.s^{-1}

N<u>ow using the principle of elastic collision:</u>

Net momentum of the system is zero.

m_l\times v_l=(3300-m_l)\times v_c

m_l\times 2.5=(3300-m_l)\times 0.5

m_l=550\ kg is the mass of librarian.
