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 controlle

d 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? Give your answer in kilojoules.

Answer:

(2.357 × 10⁻³) J = (2.357 × 10⁻⁶) KJ

Explanation:

Power = flux × (cross sectional area)

Q = q × A

Power = Q = ?

Flux = q = 2.00 W/m²

Cross sectional Area of the eye = A = πr²

r = radius of the eye at the moment that the calculation is required = 2.5 mm = 0.0025 m

A = πr² = π(0.0025)² = 0.0000196428 m²

A = (1.964 × 10⁻⁵) m²

Q = q × A

Q = 2 × 1.964 × 10⁻⁵

Q = (3.929 × 10⁻⁵) W

Power = (Energy/time)

Energy = Power × Time

Power = (3.929 × 10⁻⁵) W

Time = 1 minute = 1 × 60 = 60 s

Energy = (3.929 × 10⁻⁵ × 60)

Energy = 0.002357 J = (2.357 × 10⁻³) J

In Kilojoules,

Energy = (2.357 × 10⁻⁶) KJ

Hope this Helps!!!

What are two types of diffraction?
tino4ka555 [31]
Fresnel and Fraunhofer diffraction. Fresnel diffraction is produced when light from a point source meets an obstacle, the waves are spherical and the pattern observed is a fringed image of the object. Fraunhofer diffraction occurs with plane wave-fronts with the object effectively at infinity. The pattern is in a particular direction and is a fringed image of the source.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The conduction path or simply the wires connected between different components in a circuit.

Explanation:

The wire makes up the path for the electricity to flow and most of the electricity flows through this. It is like a road connecting two house or buildings in a town and the traffic of vehicles is the electricity (current).

Explain why a battery causes charge to flow spontaneously when the battery is inserted in a circuit
deff fn [24]
Batteries supply electrons to the circuit by releasing negatively charged atoms or ions. These ions are produced by the batteries through a chemical reaction that spontaneously occurs within the battery. So the negative end of the battery pushes the ions towards the positive end of the circuit with the help of the voltage. This is why eventually, batteries "run out" when the electrode is used up and the chemical reaction can no longer continue.

What does the person in back of the ambulance experience? A) a lower frequency of the siren B) a lower amplitude of the siren C)
hoa [83]

The answer to your question is "A. a lower frequency of the siren.

Because the person in back of the ambulance will hear a lower frequency of the siren. This is because the waves are stretched out. A longer wavelength results in a lower frequency.
