How does air resistance affect the acceleration of falling objects?

1 answer:

7 0

Air resistance opposes the motion of falling objects. Dense air prefers to stay at low heights. More dense the air is, more air resistance it produces. Hence acceleration of falling objects decreases. Hope this helps!

Both the lens and the cornea of the eye have a primary function of

3241004551 [841]

Answer: B. bending light

Explanation:

The phenomenom of vision in human eye is thanks to refraction (when light changes its direction as it passes through one medium to another), and this is what the cornea and the lens do.

When the ray of light encounters the eye, the first thing it finds is the cornea, which bends this ray and begins to form an image, then light passes through the pupil, which is in charge of regulating the amount of light that enters in the eye.

After light travels through pupil it passes through the lens, where the rays of light change the direction again in order to focus the formed image on the retina.

At this point it is important to note the formed image is downward, then the retina transforms light into electrical impulses that are sent to the brain through the optic nerve and finally the brain interprets these messages, and forms a right upward image.

In the image attached these parts can be seen.
