B- at night

In eyes of the humans, and many other animals there are two types of receptors, the rods, and the cones. The cones have an important role in color vision and they possess different types of pigment which enable color vision.
On the other hand, the rods are more sensitive to light, and they are responsible for black and white vision.
Therefore, an increase in the number of rods can enable the animal to see betther in the dark.

Do you think an observer on another planet in the solar system might see eclipses
artcher [175]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Eclipses: Eclipses are also known as game of shadows where one object comes between the star(light source) and another object in a straight line such that the shadow of one object falls on other object. This can occur when the apparent size of the star and the object is almost same.

Talking about the Earth, the geometry is such that the Moon and the Sun are of same apparent size as seen from the Earth. Thus Lunar and Solar eclipse can be seen from the Earth. If we were to go on any other planet the same phenomenon can be seen provided the apparent size of moon and the Sun from that planet is same.

We have seen and recorded many such eclipses on Jupiter. These are from the perspective of Earth. When the moons of Jupiter comes exactly between the Sun and Jupiter the shadow of moon will fall on Jupiter. The places where the shadow falls, one will see a solar eclipse.

A person who weighs 800N on the earth's surface will weigh 200N at what height above the earth
Marina86 [1]

Answer: 6,400 km

Explanation:

The weight of a person is given by:

W=mg

where m is the mass of the person and g is the acceleration due to gravity. While the mass does not depend on the height above the surface, the value of g does, following the formula:

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

r is the distance of the person from the Earth's center


The problem says that the person weighs 800 N at the Earth's surface, so when r=R (Earth's radius):

800 N= W=mg=m \frac{GM}{R^2} (1)

Now we want to find the height h above the surface at which the weight of the man is 200 N:

200 N = W' = mg' = m \frac{GM}{(R+h)^2} (2)

If we divide eq.(1) by eq.(2), we get

\frac{800 N}{200 N}=\frac{W}{W'}=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}

4=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}

By solving the equation, we find:

4R^2 = (R+h)^2=R^2+2Rh+h^2\\h^2 +2Rh-3R^2 =0

which has two solutions:

h=-3R --> negative solution, we can ignore it

h=R --> this is our solution

Since the Earth's radius is R=6.4\cdot 10^6 m, the person should be at h=R=6.4\cdot 10^6 m=6400 km above Earth's surface.
