How does a compound eye work?

Physics
1 answer:
Reil [10]3 years ago

<span>The Compound Eye. The arthropod (e.g., insects, crustaceans) eye is built quite differently from the vertebrate eye (and the mollusk eye). Arthropod eyes are called compound eyes because they are made up of repeating units, the ommatidia, each of which functions as a separate visual receptor.</span>

Which stament best describes resistance
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to the flow of current in an electrical circuit.

Explanation:

It is symbolized by the Greek letter omega (Ω), resistance is measured in ohms.  

If an electric current of one ampere passes through a component across which a potential difference (voltage) of one volt exists, then the resistance of that component is one ohm

Which electrode in Thomson’s vacuum tube was positively charged
Taya2010 [7]

Anode

Explanation:

The anode in the gas discharge tube used by Thomson in his experiment was the positively charged electrode.

Using the gas discharge tube, Thomson made the remarkable discovery of cathode rays.

The rays moves from the negatively charged cathode to the positively charged anode. This indicated that the rays carry positive charges.

Some parts of the tube are:

  • Cathode - negatively charged electrode
  • Power source
  • Gas at low pressure
  • Outlet to vacuum pump

An element is highly conductive, highly reactive, soft, and lustrous. The element most likely belongs to which group?(1 point)
UkoKoshka [18]

An element which is highly conductive, highly reactive, soft, and lustrous is most likely an alkali metal.

Alkali metals are in group 1 of the Periodic table which means that they have only a single valence electron.

This causes them to be soft and highly reactive because:

  • The single valance electron leads to weak bonds amongst the element's atoms which makes them soft
  • The elements want to lose the single valance electron so as to become stable so they will react with other elements to give away the electron.

Examples of alkali electrons include:

  • Lithium
  • Sodium
  • Potassium etc

In conclusion therefore, alkali metals are highly reactive and soft and so the element described above is most likely an alkali metal.
