Physics
1 answer:
Mekhanik [1.2K]3 years ago
7 0
Put the thermometer into boiling water and leave it for five minutes in order to get an accurate reading. remove the thermometer and while looking at eye level see where the line of the fluid sits. if it not exactly the 100 C or 212 F marker then you need to note the difference and compensate for this amount each time you use the thermometer. If you get radically different results often, you need a knew thermometer.

Discuss the path that light takes through the human eye
amm1812

The cornea is shaped like a dome and bends light to help the eye focus. Some of this light enters the eye through an opening called the pupil (PYOO-pul). The iris (the colored part of the eye) controls how much light the pupil lets in. Next, light passes through the lens (a clear inner part of the eye).

A lemon with mass 0.3 kg falls out of a tree from a height of 1.8 m. How much mechanical energy does the lemon have just before
Zina [86]
Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. It can either be kinetics or potential. In this problem you know it starting position so you can calculate it's potential energy (PE):

<span>PE=mass∗gravity∗height=0.3kg∗9.8m/s2∗1.8m=?

</span>The answer will typically be given in joules:

1J=kg∗m2s2 Could be wrong...  But I believe it is 5.3...? as a final product.
