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.

A 5.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and surface is ????K=0.50. A hor
blagie [28]

Answer:

a)W= 1 J

b)W= 1 J

c)W= 0 J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 5 kg

Coefficient of kinetic friction,K=0.5

d= 10 cm

We know that if velocity is constant it means that the acceleration of the system is zero.Or we can say that all forces are balance in the system.

We know that work is the dot product of force and displacement

W= F.d

The friction force on the box

Fr= K m g

Fr= 0.5 x 5 x 10 = 25 N                      ( take g =10 m/s²)

Fr=25 N

a)

Acceleration a= 0

So horizontal force F = Fr

W = Fr.d

W=10 x 0.1 J

W= 1 J

b)

The work done by friction force

W= 1 J

c)

The net force on the system is zero because acceleration is zero.

F= 0

So

W= 0 J
