Light of intensity 2.00 W/m2 passes through the pupil of one of your eyes and eventually falls on your retina. The radius of the

pupil is controlled by the iris. In a human eye, the radius of the pupil can vary from about 1.0 mm to about 3.5 mm. The area of the opening can be calculated from pi (3.1416) times the radius squared. If your pupil is open to a radius of 2.5 mm, how much light energy passes through in one minute

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of light, I = 2 W/m²

radius of pupil open, r = 2.5 mm = 2.5 x 10^-3 m

time, t = 1 min = 60 second

Energy passes, E = intensity x area x time

E = 2 x 3.14 x 2.5 x 2.5 x 10^-6 x 60

E = 2.36 x 10^-3 Joule

What is the highest degrees above the horizon the moon ever gets during the year in the Yakima Valley ?
Ivahew [28]

The trickiest part of this problem was making sure where the Yakima Valley is.
OK so it's generally around the city of the same name in Washington State.

Just for a place to work with, I picked the Yakima Valley Junior College, at the
corner of W Nob Hill Blvd and S16th Ave in Yakima.  The latitude in the middle
of that intersection is 46.585° North.  <u>That's</u> the number we need.

Here's how I would do it:

-- The altitude of the due-south point on the celestial equator is always
(90° - latitude), no matter what the date or time of day.

-- The highest above the celestial equator that the ecliptic ever gets
is about 23.5°. 

-- The mean inclination of the moon's orbit to the ecliptic is 5.14°, so
that's the highest above the ecliptic that the moon can ever appear
in the sky.

This sets the limit of the highest in the sky that the moon can ever appear.

90° - 46.585° + 23.5° + 5.14° = 72.1° above the horizon .

That doesn't happen regularly.  It would depend on everything coming
together at the same time ... the moon happens to be at the point in its
orbit that's 5.14° above ==> (the point on the ecliptic that's 23.5° above
the celestial equator).

Depending on the time of year, that can be any time of the day or night.

The most striking combination is at midnight, within a day or two of the
Winter solstice, when the moon happens to be full.

In general, the Full Moon closest to the Winter solstice is going to be
the moon highest in the sky.  Then it's going to be somewhere near
67° above the horizon at midnight.

you throw a ball vertically so it leaves the ground withe velocity of 3.71m/s. what is its acceleration at this point
tino4ka555 [31]

No matter what direction you throw it, or with what speed, its acceleration is immediately 9.8 m/s^2 downward as soon as you release it from your hand, and it doesn't change until the ball hits something.

The drawing shows a loudspeaker A and point C, where a listeer is positioned. A second loudspeaker B is located somewhere to the
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer: 4.17m

Explanation:

The observer at C will hear a sound on no sound upon whether the interference is constructive or destructive.

If the listeners hears sounds it is caled constructive interference but if he hears no sound its called destructive interference.

So

d2 - d1 = (n *lamba)/ 2

Where n=1,3,5

lamda=v/f =349/62.8

lamda=5.56m

d2= d1 + nlamda/2

d2= 1 + 5.56/2

d2= 3.78m

X'= 1 cos 60= 0.5m

Y= 1 sin60= 0.866m

X"^2 + Y^2 =d2^2

X" =√(y^2 - d2^2)

X"=√(3.78^2 - 0.886^2)

X"= 3.67m

So therefore the closest that speaker A can be to speaker B so the listener does not hear any sound is X' + X"= 0.5 + 3.67

4.17m

The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2, towards the Earth. Rain falling from an altitude of 9,000 m would fall for about 1
Anna [14]

Answer:

the final speed of the rain is 541 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

height of fall of the rain, h = 9,000 m

time of the rain fall, t = 1.5 minutes = 90 s

Determine the initial velocity of the rain, as follows;

h = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\9000 = 90u +  \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(90)^2\\\\9000 = 90u + 39690\\\\90u = -30690\\\\u = \frac{-30690}{90} \\\\u = -341 \ m/s

The final speed of the rain is calculated as;

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh\\\\v^2 = (-341)^2 + 2(9.8\times 9000)\\\\v^2 = 292681\\\\v = \sqrt{292681} \\\\v = 541 \ m/s

Therefore, the final speed of the rain is 541 m/s.
