The answer is photocoagulation.

The use of a laser beam to seal leaky blood vessels and to prevent the growth of new ones in diabetic retinopathy is called laser <u>photocoagulation.</u>

<u></u>

What is photocoagulation?

A minimally invasive method used to treat numerous retinal illnesses is photocoagulation of the retina, also known as retinal laser photocoagulation. The retina may expand due to aberrant leaky blood vessels developing across it in a number of disorders. Laser photocoagulation uses thermal energy above 65 °C to burn the retinal tissue by creating thermal burns. This can prevent the retina from being damaged by the bleeding blood vessels. In addition to causing fibrosis, laser photocoagulation can also seal retinal tears. Laser photocoagulation is typically unable to recover already lost vision in cases of retinal disease, but it can slow the progression of the condition, lower the chance of further vision loss, and preserve residual vision. The likelihood of problems following the operation is quite minimal.

7. Un bloque de 700 N se encuentra sobre una viga uniforme de 200 N y 6 m de longitud. El bloque está a una distancia de 1 m del
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

 x =  0.176 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we will take the condition of rotational equilibrium, where the reference system is located on the far left and the wire on the far right. We assume that counterclockwise turns are positive.

Let's use trigonometry to decompose the tension

      sin 60 = T_{y} / T

      T_{y} = T sin 60

       cos 60 = Tₓ / T

      Tₓ = T cos 60

we apply the equation

       ∑ τ = 0

       -W L / 2 - w x + T_{y} L = 0

 

the length of the bar is L = 6m

           -Mg 6/2 - m g x + T sin 60 6 = 0

             x = (6 T sin 60 - 3 M g) / mg

let's calculate

let's use the maximum tension that resists the cable T = 900 N

             x = (6 900 sin 60 - 3 200 9.8) / (700 9.8)

             x = (4676 - 5880) / 6860

             x = - 0.176 m

Therefore the block can be up to 0.176m to keep the system in balance.

A 100 Kg man is diving off a 50 meter cliff. What is his kinetic energy when he is 20 meters from the water?
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

K.E=29.403125J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass M=100

Height 50-20=30m

Generally the equation for velocity before impact is is is mathematically given by

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2*9.8*30}

v=24.25

Generally the equation for Kinetic Energy is is mathematically given by

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\frac{1}{2}*100*(24.25)^2\\

K.E=29403.125J

K.E=29.403125J
