The answer is D) absorb most of the light that falls on them

A blackbody is an object that absorbs most (theoretically all) of the light that falls on it. Stars are called black bodies because they demonstrate something close to this property. Why do they appear white and not black? As black body radiators heat up, they slowly turn from black to grey to white, according to the human eye. Since stars are incredibly hot, they appear white to us.

Answer:

(1) Sure, the frequency is 1000 Hz.

Explanation:

Frequency = wave speed ÷ wave distance

wave speed = 100 m/s

wave distance = 10 cm = 10/100 = 0.1 m

Frequency = 100 ÷ 0.1 = 1000 Hz

The eye is actually a multiple-lens system, but we can approximate it with a single-lens system for most of our purposes. When t
hram777 [196]

Explanation:

Given that,

The optical power of the equivalent single lens is 45.4 diopters.

(a) The relationship between the focal length and the focal length is given by:

f=\dfrac{1}{P}

f=\dfrac{1}{45.4}

f = 0.022 m

or

f = 2.2 cm

(b) We need to find how far in front of the retina is this "equivalent lens" located. It is given by using lens formula as :

\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}

Here, u = infinity

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{2.2}

v = 2.2 cm

So, at 2.2 cm in front of the retina is this "equivalent lens" located.

Hence, this is the required solution.
