Humans can see several thousand shades of color but have cone photoreceptors that are sensitive to only three (perhaps four) wav

elengths of light. What is the best explanation for why we see so many colors?
Select one:
a.Color perception is dependent on the millions of rods as well as cone photoreceptors.
b.Color perception is achieved by activation of various combinations between the three cone types.
c.Shades of color are purely psychological and learned by association with age, infants only seeing in black and white. Incorrect
d. Colors are added and enhanced in the primary visual cortex of the brain.

Answer:

B. Color perception is achieved by activation of various combinations between the tree cone types.

Explanation:

Human eye have only three photo receptor ( three wavelength) but they can see several thousands of shades of color because color perception is gained by combination of these three wave length cone types ( RED, BLUE AND GREEN) into various combinations. Our retina have two types of cell:- cone cells and cylindrical cells. Cone cells are responsible for the identification of color.

Mass and Weight: What is the mass of an object that experiences a gravitational force of 685 N near Earth's surface where g
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

m = 69.9 kg

Explanation:

The mass and the weight of an object are two different quantities. Mass is basically the amount of matter that is present in a body. It remains same everywhere in the universe and measured in kilograms.

Weight is basically a force. It is the force by which earth attracts everything towards itself. The weight of an object changes from planet to planet, with the change in value of the gravitational acceleration (g).

Therefore, the relation between mass and weight of an object is given by the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

m = mass = ?

W = Weight = 685 N

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (685 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

<u>m = 69.9 kg</u>

A stone is thrown horizontally at 30m/s from a tall cliff.
Jobisdone [24]

x(2) = 30(2) = 60 m

y(2) = ½(-9.8)2² = -19.6 m

x(4) = 30(4) = 120 m

y(4) = ½(-9.8)4² = -78.4 m

x(6) = 30(6) = 180 m

y(6) = ½(-9.8)6² = -176.4 m

x(8) = 30(8) = 240 m

y(8) = ½(-9.8)8² = -313.6 m

x(10) = 30(10) = 300 m

y(10) = ½(-9.8)10² = -490 m

How many 50 mg tablets can be produced from 10 kg of ibuprofen?
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

2 × 10⁵

Explanation:

The total mass of the drug, ibuprofen = 10 kg

Kilograms and grams are related as:

1 kg = 1000 g

Also,

Grams and milligrams are related as:

1 g = 1000 mg

So,

1 kg = 10⁶ g

Mass of the drug, ibuprofen = 10 × 10⁶ mg = 10⁷ mg

Given, mass of tablet = 50 mg

So, number of tablets = total mass / Mass of 1 tablet = 10⁷ mg / 50 mg = 2 × 10⁵

<u>Number of 50 mg tablets =  2 × 10⁵</u>

A Physics question regarding circuits and electricity.
Rom4ik [11]
Assuming all three bulbs are connected properly with their conductivity creating a circuit, if one is unscrewed all bulbs would shut off causing zero emission of light to be displaced. Meaning answer D would be the closest to the right response.

Hope this helps! :)
