Measurements on the cornea of a person's eye reveal that the magnitude of the front surface radius of curvature is while the mag

nitude of the rear surface radius of curvature is (see Figure 25.18 ), and that the index of refraction of the cornea is 1.38 . If the cornea were simply a thin lens in air, what would be its focal length and its power in diopters? What type of lens would it be?

(a) If the cornea were simply thin lens then power will be 43 diopters.

(b) This is a concave lens

The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye that covers the iris, pupil, and anterior chamber. Despite injury or disease, the cornea can still repair itself quickly. However, there are situations where damage is too severe for the cornea to heal on its own – such as with a deep injury to the cornea. The following symptoms may indicate that the cornea has sustained a substantial infection, injury or disease: Blurred vision Pain Redness.

Along with the anterior chamber and lens, the cornea refracts light, accounting for approximately two-thirds of the eye's total optical power. In humans, the refractive power of the cornea is approximately 43 diopters.

There are two types of lenses: converging and diverging and here if the cornea was simply thin then the diverging or concave lens is used in the eyes which is thin in the center than their edges.

What is the force of gravity for a 12 kg turkey?<br><br> Please help asap
pogonyaev

Answer: 117.6N

Explanation:

By the second Newton's law, we know that:

F = m*a

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

We know that in the surface of the Earth, the gravitational acceleration is g = 9.8m/s^2.

Then we just can input that acceleration in the above equation, and also replace m by 12kg, and find that the force due the gravity is:

F = 12kg*9.8m/s^2 = 117.6N

the other end of the pipe. With the aide of the pipe, does the applied force produce a smaller torque, a greater torque, or the
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

With the addition of the pipe we have a greater torque.

Explanation:

We need to complete the description of the problem, searchin in internet we have:

"Sometimes, even with a wrench, one cannot loosen a nut that is frozen tightly to a bolt. It is often possible to loosen the nut by slipping one end of a long pipe over the wrench handle and pushing at the other end of the pipe. With the aid of the pipe, does the applied force produce a smaller torque, a greater torque, or the same torque on the nut?"

With the addition of the pipe we have a greater torque, as it increases the distance or radius of torque.

We know that torque is defined, as the product of force by distance, in this way we have:

T = F * d

where:

T = torque [N*m]

F = force [N]

d = distance [m]

We can see in the above equation, that increasing the distance increases torque proportionally.
