What causes short sightedness ?how is it corrected

Physics
1 answer:
7nadin3 [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Short sight occurs when the eyeball is too long or the lens is too thick, or both. As a result, light rays from distant objects are focused in front of the retina (because the light rays are highly converged). The image formed on the retina is therefore out of focus.

Short sight can be corrected by wearing glasses with concave lenses. Light rays from distant objects are diverged by concave lenses before entering the eyes, so that light can be focused on the retina to form a sharp image.

Which of the following is NOT a function of the lens in the eye?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

it is a light receptor that generates nerve signals that are sent to the brain

Explanation:

the lens are like the glasses, this means that is used to see things better. You just put them in your eye and that's all it's not connected to the brain

You drop two balls of equal diameter from the same height at the same time. Ball 1 is made of metal and has a greater mass than
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The drop time ball 1 is less than the drop time of ball 2. A further explanation is provided below.

Explanation:

The net force acting on the ball will be:

⇒ F_{net}=mg-F_r

Here,

F = Force

m = mass

g = acceleration

Now,

According to the Newton's 2nd law of motion, we get

⇒ F_{net} = ma

To find the value of "a", we have to substitute "F_{net}=ma" in the above equation,

⇒ ma=mg-F_r

⇒    a=g-\frac{F_r}{m}

We can see that, the acceleration is greater for the greater mass of less for the lesser mass. Thus the above is the appropriate solution.

Will mark as brainliest if correct!!!!!!!!!!!
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The answer is A.

Explanation:

The diagram shows the light ray bending away from the normal. Light rays bend away from the normal when their speed increases. This means that in the diagram, the light ray moves from a medium in which light has a lower speed to a medium in light has a higher speed. The only choice where the speed of light increases from A to B is answer A. So that has to be the answer.
