Option (d) is correct.

Distance is the total path length covered by the object.

so, for distance, we add all the path lengths

Here the total distance =7+5+2 =14 km

The pupil of a cat's eye narrows to a slit width of 0.5 mm in daylight. What is the angular resolution of the cat's eye in dayli
Elenna [48]

Answer:

C. 10⁻³ rads

Explanation:

Here, we shall use Rayleigh's Criterion to find out the angular resolution of Cat's eye during day light. Rayleigh's Criterion is written as follows:

θ = λ/a

where,

θ = angular resolution of Cat's eye = ?

λ = wavelength = 500 nm = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m

a = slit width of eye = 0.5 mm = 5 x 10⁻⁴ m

Therefore,

θ = (5 x 10⁻⁷ m/5 x 10⁻⁴ m)

Therefore,

θ = 0.001

θ = Sin⁻¹(0.001)

θ = 0.001 rad = 1 x 10⁻³ rad

Hence, the correct answer is:

<u>C. 10⁻³ rads</u>

The length of your eye decreases slightly as you age, making the lens a bit closer to the retina. Suppose a man had his vision s
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

<h2>A. Nearsightedness</h2>

Explanation:

A nearsightedness is an eye defect that occurs when someone is only able to see close ranged object but not far distance object. According to the question, if the length of my eye decreases slightly as I age, this means there is a possibility that I will find it difficult to view a far distance object as I age.

At 70, once my eyes had decreased slightly in length, this means I will only be able to see close ranged object but not far distant object, showing that I am now suffering from nearsightedness according to its definition above.

An object traveling in a straight line accelerates. What will definitely happen due to the acceleration?
Damm [24]
"Acceleration" means any change in the speed or direction of motion ... speeding up, slowing down, or turning.  So . . .

<span>-- </span><span>The distance traveled in a certain time may increase or decrease.

-- The displacement covered in a certain time may increase or decrease.

-- The speed of the object may increase or decrease.

-- The velocity of the object (speed/direction) will change.

What force causes a falling object to gain kinetic energy?
hoa [83]

Answer:

Gravitational Potential Energy

Explanation:

As an object falls from rest, its gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Conservation of energy as a tool permits the calculation of the velocity just before it hits the surface.

4. A small rocket with a mass of 2000 g (hint: grams) accelerates at 8.3 m/s/s as it launches into the sky. How much force is ac
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

16.6N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of rocket  = 2000g  = 2kg

Acceleration  = 8.3m/s²

Unknown:

Force acting on the rocket  = ?

Solution:

The force acting on a body can be derived from the product of its mass and acceleration;

  Force  = mass x acceleration

Insert the parameters and solve;

  Force  = 2 x 8.3  = 16.6N
