The pupil of the eye is the circular opening through which light enters. Its diameter can vary from about 8.00 mm to about 2.00

mm to control the intensity of the light reaching the interior. Calculate the angular resolution, ?R, of the eye for light that has a wavelength of 543 nm in both bright light and dim light.Dim light=______0 Bright light=__________0 At which light level is diffraction less of a limiting factor in the sharpness of your vision?A)BrightB) DimC) More information is needed to answerD) Diffraction is equally a factor in both intensities of light

Answer:

0.0047^{\circ}

0.018978^{\circ}

B) Dim

Explanation:

\theta = Angle

a = Pupil diameter

\lambda = Wavelength = 543 nm

Angular resolution is given by

sin\theta=1.22\dfrac{\lambda}{a}\\\Rightarrow \theta=sin^{-1}\left(1.22\dfrac{\lambda}{a}\right)\\\Rightarrow \theta=sin^{-1}\left(1.22\times \dfrac{543\times 10^{-9}}{8\times 10^{-3}}\right)\\\Rightarrow \theta=0.0047^{\circ}

For the dim light the angle is 0.0047^{\circ}

sin\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{a}\\\Rightarrow \theta=sin^{-1}\left(1.22\dfrac{\lambda}{a}\right)\\\Rightarrow \theta=sin^{-1}\left(1.22\times \dfrac{543\times 10^{-9}}{2\times 10^{-3}}\right)\\\Rightarrow \theta=0.018978^{\circ}

For the bright light the angle is 0.018978^{\circ}

The angular separation and sharpness are inversely related. Here, the dim light will produce a sharp image.

Hence, option B is correct

Check the dimensional consistencies of s =vot+1/2at2​
Leni [432]

Answer:

s is distance so it's dimensions become L.

Nd other side we have ut+1\2at^2.

as 1\2 is a constant it will have dimensions and apply the dimensions to other quantities.

on solving u will get L there also i,e ur LHS = RHS.

thus the equation is dimensionally consistent.

Guys please helpp!!!!1
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Position A/Position E

K = E, U = 0

Position B/Position D

K = (1-x)\cdot E, U = x\cdot E, for 0 < x < 1

Position C

K = 0, U = E

Explanation:

Let suppose that ball-Earth system represents a conservative system. By Principle of Energy Conservation, total energy (E) is the sum of gravitational potential energy (U) and translational kinetic energy (K), all measured in joules. In addition, gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to height (h) and translational kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of velocity.

Besides, gravitational potential energy is increased at the expense of translational kinetric energy. Then, relative amounts at each position are described below:

Position A/Position E

K = E, U = 0

Position B/Position D

K = (1-x)\cdot E, U = x\cdot E, for 0 < x < 1

Position C

K = 0, U = E

The graph shows a car's velocity over time. During which time period does the car have the greatest acceleration?
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

Between 0 and 1 seconds (B)

Explanation:

The velocity of the car over time is represented by the line graphed here

the steeper the line, the greater change in velocity that occurred in a given time frame.

The steepest portion of the line is between 0-1 seconds, which means that the greatest rate of change occurred between 0-1 seconds.

(acceleration is the rate of change)
