What are the differences between a magnetic and gravitational interaction

1 answer:

3 0

Classically, gravitational attraction is due to the masses of objects. It is inversely proportional to the square of the distances between the objects.

Magnetic attraction is due to the magnetism in objects which is due to uncompensated electron spins in certain atoms. The force due to magnetism less easy to put into one equation than gravity since magnetic fields can have different shapes, but the simplest one (the dipolar field) is inversely proportional to the cube of the distance between the magnetic dipoles.

Why does the shape of the lens in your eye change?

Nina [5.8K]

The Lens Changes Shape to Focus Near Objects. Light rays from objects that are close to the eye are not parallel. Therefore, the eye must bend them more in order to focus the rays on the retina. To accomplish this, the lens change shape.

Shkiper50 [21]

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to frequency depending on the wavelength and the speed of light.

By definition we know that the frequency is equivalent to,

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$
