The pupil of the human eye can vary in diameter from 2.00 mm in bright light to 8.00 mm in dim light. The eye has a focal length

of about 25 mm, and the visible spectrum extends from 390 nm (violet) to 750 nm (red). Note that the light-sensitive cells on the retina have radii ranging from 0.75 μm to 3.0 μm.

The indicated data are of clear understanding for the development of Airy's theory. In optics this phenomenon is described as an optical phenomenon in which The Light, due to its undulatory nature, tends to diffract when it passes through a circular opening.

The formula used for the radius of the Airy disk is given by,

y_r=1.22\frac{\lambda f}{d}

Where,

y_r = Range of the radius

\lambda = wavelength

f= focal length

Our values are given by,

State 1:

d=2.00mm = 2*10^{-3}m

f= 25mm = 25*10^{-3}m

\lambda = 750nm = 750*10^{-9}m

State 2:

d=8.00mm = 8*10^{-3}m

f= 25mm = 25*10^{-3}m

\lambda = 390nm = 390*10^{-9}

Replacing in the first equation we have:

y_{r1} = 1.22\frac{(750*10^{-9})(25*10^{-3})}{2*10^{-3}}

y_{r1}= 11.4\mu m

And also for,

y_{r2} =1.22\frac{(390*10^{-9})(25*10^{-3})}{8*10^{-3}}

y_{r2} = 1.49\mu m

Therefor, the airy disk radius ranges from 1.49\mu m to 11.4\mu m

The Ring of Fire, also referred to as the Circum-Pacific Belt, is a path along the Pacific Ocean characterized by active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes. Its length is approximately 40,000 kilometers (24,900 miles). It traces boundaries between several tectonic plates—including the Pacific, Juan de Fuca, Cocos, Indian-Australian, Nazca, North American, and Philippine Plates.

Seventy-five percent of Earth’s volcanoes—more than 450 volcanoes—are located along the Ring of Fire. Ninety percent of Earth’s earthquakes occur along its path, including the planet’s most violent and dramatic seismic events.

The abundance of volcanoes and earthquakes along the Ring of Fire is caused by the amount of movement of tectonic plates in the area. Along much of the Ring of Fire, plates overlap at convergent boundaries called subduction zones. That is, the plate that is underneath is pushed down, or subducted, by the plate above. As rock is subducted, it melts and becomes magma. The abundance of magma so near to Earth’s surface gives rise to conditions ripe for volcanic activity. A significant exception is the border between the Pacific and North American Plates. This stretch of the Ring of Fire is a transform boundary, where plates move sideways past one another. This type of boundary generates a large number of earthquakes as tension in Earth’s crust builds up and is released.

A 1380 kg car starts from rest at the
Ulleksa [173]

Answer: 72200

Explanation:

First you must find the height for this is on an inclined hill using:

h=Lsin(angle) —> 28.0sin(11.0) = 5.34

Now you would just use the PE equation (mgh) because you are finding ME and when you starting from the top KE=0, showing that what ever answer you get from PE would equal the same for ME.

Using mgh:

m=1380

g=9.80

h=5.34

(1380)(9.8)(5.34)

=72218.16

*Rounding to the 3rd=72200

Hope this helps :)

Why is the perfect mechine is not possible in the real life?​
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Because the mechanical advantage of the machine is affected by friction and weight but velocity ratio is not. So, mechanical advantage is less than velocity rate. Thus, the machine's efficiency is less than 100% and can't be a perfect machine
