Camera is an optical instrument that forms images in a way most like human eyes.

Explanation:

The eye consists of a small spherical globe of about 2 cm in diameter, which is free to rotate under the control of 6 extrinsic muscles. Light enters the eye through the transparent cornea, passes through the aqueous humor, the lens, and the vitreous humor, where it finally forms an image on the retina.

In case of a digital camera, CCD is used known as charged coupled device. CCD is actually in the shape of array or a rectangular grid. It is like a matrix with each cell in the matrix contains a censor that senses the intensity of photon. When light falls on the object , the light reflects back after striking the object and allowed to enter inside the camera which is then stored by CCD in the form of electric signals.

Similarities between eye and a camera:

Cornea and Lens - The cornea is the “cap” of the eye. This transparent (like clear jelly) structure sits to the front of the eye. The lens of a camera is also transparent (glass) and sits at the front of the body. Both allows light to enter and have spherical curvature.

Iris and aperture -The aperture is to the camera as the iris is to the eye. Both control the amount of light allowed to enter the eye or camera.

Retina and Film - The retina sits at the back of the eye and collects the light reflected from the surrounding environment to form the image. The same task in the camera is performed either by film or sensors in digital cameras.

1. The planet Jupiter completes a revolution of the sun in 11.5 years. Express it in seconds. Given that one year= 3.154 × 10^7

xenn [34]

Answer:

The planet Jupiter completes one revolution of the sun in 362710000 seconds. Long time, right?

Explanation:

3.154x10^7=3.154x10000000=31540000

11.5x31540000=362710000

Planet a and planet b are in circular orbits around a distant star. planet a is 7.8 times farther from the star than is planet

gogolik [260]

To find the ratio of planetary speeds Va/Vb we need the orbital velocity formula:

V=√({G*M}/R), where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the distant star and R is the distance of the planet from the star it is orbiting.

So Va/Vb=[√( {G*M}/Ra) ] / [√( {G*M}/Rb) ], in our case Ra = 7.8*Rb

Va/Vb=[ √( {G*M}/{7.8*Rb} ) ] / [√( {G*M}/Rb )], we put everything under one square root by the rule: (√a) / (√b) = √(a/b)

Va/Vb=√ [ { (G*M)/(7.8*Rb) } / { (G*M)/(Rb) } ], when we cancel out G, M and Rb we get:

Va/Vb=√(1/7.8)/(1/1)=√(1/7.8)=0.358 so the ratio of Va/Vb = 0.358.

If something is being carried by westerlies, what direction is it moving??

sergejj [24]

Winds are immigrants. They're named for where they have already been and are coming from, not for where they're going.

A Westerly wind is coming from the West. Anything caught in it is being blown toward the east.

Answer:

The Fruit juice should be put in the cooler, because it has the greatest heat capacity and will therefore, absorb the most heat for each degree it increases in temperature.

Explanation:

in order to understand the answer above we need to know what specific heat capacity is

Specific heat capacity can be defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one degree

Looking at the specific heat of each substance suggested we see that the fruit juice has a higher specific heat capacity than others this is because it contains a higher amount of water , generally liquid states of substances have a higher specific heat capacity than other states. The specific heat capacity of fruit juice being the highest among the suggested substances means that it can absorb more heat for each degree temperature of refrigerator.
