B.) The retina is the layer containing t<span>he light sensing nerve cells (rods and cones)

The lens helps the eye focus light on the retina, the cornea is the outer transparent structure that covers the iris and helps the eye focus, and the pupil is the opening through which light enters the eye.</span>

Suppose you are observing the interference pattern formed by a Michelson interferometer in a laboratory and a joking colleague h
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

In Michelson interferometer , two light waves from different directions are made to overlap so that fringes are formed on the screen due to interference . In it,  two monochromatic and coherent light are made to overlap which have some path difference or phase difference. They form dark and bright fringes .

Now when a match stick is lit in the path of a wave , the fringes will disappear  and an general illumination will be observed on the screen as the light from the lit match stick will not be coherent . Incoherent light can not form stable fringes.

Douglas has a segment with endpoints I(5, 2) and J(9, 10) that is divided by a point K such that IK and KJ form a 2:3 ratio. He
Rufina [12.5K]
For the answer to the question above, 
 the distance from i to j is 5 parts 
(2 parts from i to k and 3 parts from k to j) 

The y distance from i to j is 
10 - 2 = 8 

Each part is 8/5 = 1.6 
Therefore the distance between the 2 parts from i to k is 3.2 

From the y coordinate of I which is 2 plus the 3.2 to point k 
2 + 3.2 = 5.2 

Answer y =5.2 

Now just convert that to fraction and that will be the answer

How does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?
Vesnalui [34]
Gravity lets all objects fall to the ground at the same speed, 9.8 m/s/s. If the force of gravity were stronger, such as 10 m/s/s, the rate of acceleration would be faster.

The work function for tungsten metal is 4.52eV a. What is the cutoff (threshold) wavelength for tungsten? b. What is the maximum
Tanya [424]

Answer: a) 274.34 nm; b) 1.74 eV c) 1.74 V

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to consider the energy balance for the photoelectric effect on tungsten:

h*ν = Ek+W ; where h is the Planck constant, ek the kinetic energy of electrons and W the work funcion of the metal catode.

In order to calculate the cutoff wavelength we have to consider that Ek=0

in this case  h*ν=W

(h*c)/λ=4.52 eV

λ= (h*c)/4.52 eV

λ= (1240 eV*nm)/(4.52 eV)=274.34 nm

From this h*ν = Ek+W;  we can calculate the kinetic energy for a radiation wavelength of 198 nm

then we have

(h*c)/(λ)-W= Ek

Ek=(1240 eV*nm)/(198 nm)-4.52 eV=1.74 eV

Finally, if we want to stop these electrons we have to applied a stop potental equal to 1.74 V . At this potential the photo-current drop to zero. This potential is lower to the catode, so this  acts to slow down the ejected electrons from the catode.
